Device Control
External Device Newton Menu Description
The Configurator tool is used to define the functionality of Newton controls by creating a
Newton configuration file. The Newton configuration establishes a one-to-one relationship
of Newton channels to GV Switcher physical inputs (BNC connectors on the Video Processor
Frame). Each GV Switcher input/Newton channel can have up to five different setups
defined. A default Newton configuration file with 96 channels (inputs) is provided with five
empty setups for each channel. Using the configurator, controllable parameters in modules
which are in the video path for each switcher input can be assigned to GV Switcher Menu
Panel knobs. The user is then able to control those modules directly from the GV Switcher
system.
Refer to the separate Newton Instruction Manual and NetConfig Instruction Manual for
specific information about how to configure the Newton controls. These manuals are
available for download from the Grass Valley website.
External Device Newton Menu Description
Once configured, module parameters can be adjusted in the Devices, Newton menu.
Selection of a module parameter to control is mediated though the GV Switcher source
selection mechanism. By selecting a source on the currently delegated Preview bus of the
GV Switcher’s Control Panel, the source’s physical input, and that input’s associated Newton
channel controls are activated on the GV Switcher’s Device menu.
About the Delegation Pvw Bus
The Delegation Pvw Bus pane is used to select which Preview bus will be used to select the
Newton channel to be controlled.
