Configuring layout elements
To configure layout elements
1 In the Layouts tab, create layouts and assign the logical sources you configured
(see Assigning Kayak tallies, input names, and output names to logical sources on
page 427) to monitors that can display text (e.g., UMD) or alarms (e.g., UMD, video, text
alarm status).
2 Depending on your purposes, assign the appropriate text or alarm levels to specific
components within the monitors (e.g., assign an alarm level to a tally component in a
UMD, or a text level to the UMD text component).
3 On the File menu, click Save.
4 On the Configure menu, point to Database, and then click Export to export the
database to your multiviewer.
On the monitor wall, you can now load the layout containing the monitors that were
assigned dynamic text and tallies provided by the Kayak switcher. Input and output names,
as well as tally status from the Kayak switcher will be visible on the wall. Any changes made
by the switcher’s operator will be immediately reflected.
Kayenne Production Switcher
A multiviewer can receive dynamic source names and tally information from a Grass Valley
Kayenne Video Production Center. The procedures below describe how to set up a
multiviewer to interface with this family of production switchers.
Configuring the Kayenne Switcher
To establish a serial connection between the switcher and your multiviewer, you need to
identify the serial port you wish to use for tally contribution in the switcher’s Engineering
Setups, by using the Kayenne touch screen menu panel or the Kayenne Menu application.
To set up the Kayenne switcher
1 Physically connect one end of an RJ-45 straight cable to the multiviewer’s RS-422 port.
2 Using a DE-9S-to-RJ-45 crossover adapter (Grass Valley part no. 1792-3700-100),
connect the other end of the cable to one of the 8 RS-422 control ports on the Kayenne
Video Processor Frame. The illustration below shows the location of the RS-422 ports
on a 4RU Kayenne frame. The RS-422 ports (highlighted) are numbered 1 – 8, from top
to bottom.
