Introduction

The KXO-Dual supports the following HD-SDI output resolutions: 1080i 50/60, and 720p
50/60. The KXO-Dual3 supports 1080p 50/60, 1080i 50/60, and 720p 50/60. When you
install the KXO-HDM mezzanine on a KXO-Dual3, 1080p support involves connecting the
mezzanine’s two coaxial cables to the appropriate connectors on the KXO-Dual3 card. If you
install the mezzanine on a KXO-Dual card, then these cables are not used and require no
manipulation.

Installation instructions

• If your card’s assembly number is between

0792-0100-400 and 0792-0100-599, follow

this procedure:

Replacement instructions

• If your card’s assembly number is between

0792-0100-400 and 0792-0100-599, follow

this procedure:

Replacing the KXO-HDM on a First-Generation KXO-Dual

on page 11.

To find your assembly number, look at the underside of the board near the bottom ejector
(see picture below). The assembly number is printed on a small white label.

Note:

The DIP switches that were used to set the SDI output format with

earlier versions of the Kaleido-X Software are not relevant anymore and their
configuration can be safely ignored.
