Prelude Native Protocol Server
Kayak Serial Control
Prelude version 3.0 and newer software supports Kayak digital production
switcher control. Kayak systems use RS-422 serial 9-pin communications
(not Ethernet), so a Prelude UCP control panel will be required.
• On the Prelude system, in the NP Server configuration window choose
the settings shown in
Table 6 , save the UCP panel configuration, and
then send that configuration to the UCP panel.
Table 6. Prelude Kayak Serial Control Settings
Baud Rate 38400
Data Bits 8
Stop Bits 1
Parity None
Handshake None
• On the Kayak system, select and configure the serial port connected to
the Prelude UCP control panel, choose control type
rcl_, select area 1
(Prelude supports only one area), and configure the Kayak Aux buses
and inputs to operate with the desired Prelude router Destinations.
Refer to the separate Kayak Installation and Service Manual for specific
information.
