Setting Up Your Kaleido-X16 Multiviewer
Introduction
Viewer is available for all multiviewer models, except Kaleido-IP (for which it is not
relevant).
A Kaleido-X16 multiviewer system in its default configuration includes a number of layout presets. The
default output head configuration is set to automatically detect the resolution of the associated display. If
this information is not available, it will fall back to 1280 × 1024 @ 60 Hz. Consult the Kaleido-X User’s Manual
(on the DVD that shipped with your system) for instructions on how to define rooms and layouts according
to your specific requirements.

CompactFlash card, USB connector, and basic LEDs. The Kaleido-X16 frame incorporates
