Switcher Products — Protocols Manual

Section 1 — Tally Protocol

This differs from the Kalypso/Zodiak protocol in the following ways:

There is one eDPM with 4 output channels

The A and B contributions are in separate bytes. This is the one place in
the new protocol where extra bytes are used to allow the sync
byte(0xFF) to be unique. It would have been possible to combine A and
B input contributions into one byte but that would leave the possibility
that a data byte would be 0xFF, the same as the sync byte.

Image Store Contribution Information

The Kayenne still store is configured into three channels with two inputs
and two outputs each. Inputs and Outputs can be configured as two inde-
pendent video signals or as video-key pairs. The mode for each channel
input and output is indicated by mode flags. The record flag indicates
whether or not each input is in use.

This differs from the Kalypso/Zodiak protocol in the following ways:

There are three channels (6 outputs) for the Image Store.

The input modes and output modes are in separate bytes.

The Image Store tally is channel oriented.

Output Status

Kayenne has 48 programmable outputs. An output can be programmed as
either an aux bus or as a dedicated output for an ME. From a tally stand-
point, only the source selected in each output is significant.
