Newton Modular Control

Newton Modular Control

Introduction

The Newton modular control system provides comprehensive and consol-
idated real-time control of Grass Valley modular products. Some Newton
functionality has been incorporated into the Kalypso Menu application.
This makes it possible to control Grass Valley Gecko and Kameleon frame
modular products from a Kalypso Menu panel or Menu on PC. The
modular frames must reside on the same subnet as the Kalypso system
(

Figure 239

).

Installation on Kalypso

Kalypso’s Newton interface is installed during the standard Kalypso instal-
lation procedure. The Newton menu (

Figure 241 on page 365

) is available

on all Kalypso systems running 12.0 or newer software. However, a
Newton system must be available on the Kalypso network, and configura-
tion steps will be required before this menu becomes functional.

Newton Controls Configuration

Newton functionality within Kalypso can be configured with any PC on the
Kalypso network. You use the Kalypso Software CD to install the necessary
configuration tools by selecting the

NetConfig with Newton Configurator

option.
