Configuring Router Connections
To configure router connections
1 Click the Router connections tab, which lists all multiviewer inputs and, for each, the
associated output connector from a router. For each multiviewer input you wish to
connect to an external router (e.g., INPUT A – Video 01), click the first menu (under
Router) and choose a physical router level (e.g., “MyRouter” – Video).
2 Click the second menu and choose the appropriate output (e.g., “Output 1 [1]”).
In this example, the Kaleido-X software registers that Output 1 from the router has a
cable that connects to the BNC connector corresponding to Video 1 on the
multiviewer’s INPUT A module. This means that when you select a router source to be
assigned to a monitor on the monitor wall, the Kaleido-X software will be able to
determine whether the multiviewer’s INPUT A – Video 01 connector is available, and, if
so, request the appropriate crosspoint change for “Output 1” of “MyRouter”.
3 Use the incremental copy tool to assign the next router outputs to contiguous
multiviewer inputs.
Note: Unconnected means that this multiviewer input is not connected to a
router output. For example, the input might be directly connected to a
source signal.
