PC.

Hardware Installation

Connect a Category 5 Ethernet cable from the user PC to the Karrera net-
work, either directly into an available port on the Karrera frame, or with a
customer provided Ethernet switch, or indirectly via a properly configured
network gateway. The PC’s IP address must be compatible with the Karrera
system network.

Menu on User PC Software Installation

Karrera Menu Panel software is included on the Karrera Software USB
stick, and is installed using the standard Grass Valley Switcher software
installation process. The Karrera Menu application requires Microsoft .NET
Framework software, which is also included on the USB stick.

If the correct version of the Microsoft .NET Framework software is already
present on your PC, the Karrera Menu application can be installed using
the standard software update process.

If .NET Framework software is not present, it can be installed by running
the executable file located in the DotNet folder on the Karrera Software
USB stick.

Refer to the separate Karrera Release Notes for specific software installation
information.
