access to real-time operating features.

multiviewers, and NVISION/third party routers provides a highly intuitive
graphical interface. It simplifies video/audio signal processing and
control in both single and multi-user environments.

multiplexer/serializer for the Kaleido multiviewers.

XEdit

XEdit is a client application used to create layouts for the monitor wall,
and to configure the multiviewer, from your PC or laptop.

XAdmin

XAdmin is a Web client that your system administrator uses to manage
the multiviewer system.

System snapshot

The Kaleido-X software generates data to keep track of certain events.
This data is stored as log files that can be extracted from the system as a
compressed ZIP archive created when requested by the user for specific
purposes (e.g., troubleshooting). This ZIP archive is called a system
snapshot.

System status

A system status refers to a live summary from within XAdmin. This
summary is based on the health status of each module in your
multiviewer system (see

Version

Each software, firmware, and hardware release for the various elements
that constitute your Kaleido-X system (e.g., XEdit, XAdmin, etc.) is
associated with a version number (see
