Zodiak — User Manual

Section 1 — System Overview

System Components

A Zodiak system consists of a Main panel, Menu panel, Video Processor
frame, CD-ROM (internal to the Menu panel), external USB-powered Zip
drive, and two standard 1.4 MB 3.5 in. floppy disk drives (one in the Main
panel (see

Figure 3

) and one in the Video Processor frame (see

Figure 5

).

CAUTION The floppy drives are used exclusively for emergency boot procedures. A 2-

floppy set is provided for the Main panel and a single floppy is provided for
the Video Processor frame. The boot floppies are not interchangeable
between the Main panel and Video Processor frame. The boot floppies are not
to be used in other facility or personal equipment as they are designed to
reformat the Main panel and Video Processor frame hard drives.

The Zodiak 2.5 M/E system components depicted in

Figure 1

are also

common to 3 M/E systems. Both systems use the same Video Processor
frame and Main and Menu panels.

Figure 1. Zodiak System Components

Control Surface

A group of panels available to a single operator is called a Control Surface.
A Control Surface consists of at least two components, a Main panel and a
Menu panel. The Zodiak Control Surface provides real time access to the
full function M/Es through the Main panel. In addition, the Menu panel
allows custom user configuration of special effects and matte settings not
requiring real time operation. Optional 24- and 32-Crosspoint Remote Aux
panels are also available.
