Kaleido-Modular-X
Quick Start Guide
7 Make the physical connections between your input and output cards, by using the
FlexBridge cables that shipped with your system. See Bridging the Input and Output
Cards in a Kaleido-Modular-X , on page 13.
8 Power up the frame, if it was not in operation already.
Once the networking parameters are correctly configured on your Kaleido-Modular-X
output cards, it will not be necessary to switch off the housing frame’s power when
installing or removing cards.
The Kaleido-Modular-X system starts up. The startup sequence takes approximately
four minutes, during which time every card’s status LED is blinking orange.
Once the startup has completed, the status LEDs on the output cards should be red
(steady) because the cards are not connected to the network yet:
9 If your system includes KMX-3901-IN-16-Q input cards to be used as 4K UHD prescalers,
connect their FlexBridge outputs A1 and B1 to the 3G/HD SDI inputs you wish to use
for your 4K monitoring purposes, at the rear of a KMX-3901 input card, and then see
Converting a KMX-3901-IN-16-Q Input Card to a 4K UHD Prescaler , on page 20, to
enable these cards’ prescaler mode.
Note: For more information on the card’s LEDs, refer to the Kaleido-
Modular-X Hardware Description & Installation Manual, available on the DVD
that shipped with your system.
