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 GV Switcher menu applica-
tion. This makes it possible to control Grass Valley Gecko and Kameleon
frame modular products from a GV Switcher menu. The modular frames
must reside on the same subnet as the GV Switcher system (

Figure 128

).

Installation on GV Switcher

The GV Switcher’s Newton interface is installed during the standard GV
Switcher menu application installation procedure. The Newton menu
(

Figure 130 on page 237

) is available on all GV Switcher systems. However,

a Newton system must be available on the GV Switcher network, and con-
figuration steps will be required before this menu becomes functional.

Selecting the NetConfig installation option from the GV Switcher Installer
program will install a compatible version of NetConfig with the NetConfig
Newton Configurator plug-in.
