Section 1 — Introduction
Standard Kalypso System Components
A Kalypso system consists of a Control Surface, a Video Processor frame,
Video Processor Power Supply frame, and removable media drives.
Figure 1 shows a standard 4-M/E Kalypso system. Several of the system
components depicted are also common to 2-M/E systems.

Control Surface
The modular design of Kalypso control panels provides flexibility for
mounting component panels in various environments, and allows the
addition of specialized accessory control panels. A group of panels avail-
able to a single operator is called a Control Surface. Kalypso Control
Surface components include:
• Main panel, which provides the operator with real time control of the
system. 4-M/E, 2-M/E, and 1-M/E Main panels are available.
• Menu panel, which provides additional system controls that generally
do not require real time adjustment.
• Local Aux panel, which provides control of Kalypso system Aux buses
and some other system components. 4-M/E Kalypso systems have a
separate Local Aux panel. Local Aux panel functionality is incorpo-
rated into the Kalypso 2-M/E panel.
• Removable media drives (CD-ROM and Zip Disk) for software loading
and data storage.
Different Kalypso systems can have different Control Surface components.
