Install - VTR Emulation Menu
VTR Emulation provides a mechanism to control internal VTR based
switcher components by external editors using the BVW75 protocol. VTR
based components in Kayak HD are TiM/E-MEMo (Master, PP, ME1) and
RAM Recorder (Channel 1 - 6).
It is possible to control up to 5 component instances simultaneously.
Figure 84. Install – VTR Emulation
To setup an VTR emulation session, select the number of the serial Kayak
HD port (
Port button) that is connected to a corresponding serial port of the
editor. Select the BVW75 protocol with the Select Type button. After the
internal component is selected ( Select Device button), the chosen switcher
instance can be controlled by the editor device. To setup additional sessions
use the
VTR Emulation Delegation button.
Note Port and protocol type are environment data and therefore independent from
loading and saving an application. In contrast the type of the internal compo-
nent to control is stored within an application.
