Installation & Service Manual
Downgrading the Multiviewer System
• Alarm debouncing may need to be recalibrated: before downgrading from version
6.60 (or later) to version 6.50 (or earlier) of the Kaleido Software, make sure to review
your system’s alarm debouncing calibrations, some of which you may have to modify if
you wish to maintain the same behavior. See
Upgrading from a version prior to 6.60 , on
page 171 for details.
• Kaleido-X (7RU, 4RU, and 14RU):
• Multiviewers with output cards that shipped with version 8 (or later), initially or
after repairs, cannot be downgraded to a version earlier than 8.
• Multiviewers with output cards that shipped with version 5.22 (or later), initially or
after repairs, cannot be downgraded to a version earlier than 5.22.
• If you are downgrading a multiviewer from version 5.10 (or later) to version 5.00 (or
earlier), and your system includes output cards with KXO-HDM mezzanines, you
will need to reseat these cards, once the older version of the Kaleido Software is
installed and your multiviewer has restarted.
• Expansion systems: before downgrading a Kaleido-X (14RU) expansion system to
version 2.20 of the Kaleido Software, you must first split the system into two
standalone frames. See
Splitting an Expansion Frame , on page 73 and Recovering
From a Failed Downgrade , on page 77.
• Grass Valley does not recommend downgrading a Kaleido Software system to a
version earlier than 2.10.
To downgrade your multiviewer to an earlier version of Kaleido Software
• Follow the upgrade instructions in the Release Notes that were published for the
Kaleido Software version you want to downgrade to.
