Video Processor Frame EEPROMs
Karrera systems is equipped with two EEPROM (Electronically Erasable
Programmable Read Only Memory) chips, mounted on the backplane
between the top and second board positions in the 4-RU and 8-RU Frames
(

information.

IP Address Information
Storing Video Processor Frame IP address information on the backplane of
the Frame allows control processor board replacement without the need to
enter the IP address of the Frame.
Node settings, however, are not stored on the Frame’s EERPOM. After
control processor board replacement you will need to go to the Node Set-
tings Menus (
Eng Setup , Node Settings ) and re-enter Panel and Menu IP
addresses ( Control Surfaces ), and Remote Aux information ( Remote Aux IP Net-
work )
License Information
License information stored on the Video Processor Frame EEPROMS deter-
mine which features are available for use. Licensing is keyed to the serial
number (System ID) for the Karrera Video Processor Frame.
Note If you have a Video Processor Frame and are replacing it with a new Frame,
the new license stored in the EEPROM chips for the new Frame is issued to
the serial number for the new Frame.
