Maintenance & Troubleshooting
Upgrading the Multiviewer Using a USB Key
Upgrading the Multiviewer Using a USB Key
To upgrade your multiviewer
1 Copy the upgrade package files to a USB key (see Preparing a USB Key , on page 107).
IMPORTANT
Before upgrading the multiviewer system, review the following.
Upgrading from a version prior to 6.60
Version 6.60 of the Kaleido Software introduced a change in the alarm
debouncing calibrations, which could result in alarms being raised earlier
and more frequently, after upgrading. The following properties have been
removed from the list of configurable parameters:
Occurrences and
Detection window . After the upgrade, the system behavior will be based on
1 occurrence of an alarm event. A detection window is no longer used.
If, prior to the upgrade, the Occurrences parameter was set to a value other
than 1, then you will need to revise the Set duration value after the upgrade
to take this change into account. For example:
•
Before the upgrade — If you had the following settings: Occurrences = 3,
Duration = 5 seconds, before the upgrade, then an alarm would be raised
after 15 seconds.
• After the upgrade — The former settings will be replaced with the
following: Set duration = 5 seconds, and the alarm will be raised after 5
seconds.
In this example, after the upgrade, you should set the Set duration
parameter to 15 seconds to maintain the same behavior.
It is recommended to review and note down the alarm debouncing
calibrations prior to the update, and to re-calibrate the alarm debouncing as
needed after the upgrade.
Internal router control
In the case of a Kaleido-X16 system whose internal router is controlled from
an external router control device or application, and was configured
before
version 5.20 of the Kaleido Software, after upgrading your system to version
5.20 or later, you may need to:
• add the internal router’s physical levels to the first level (i.e. [0] Video) of the
KX Router logical router, if you were previously using the now deprecated
Internal router logical router, and,
• if your external router control device or application uses the SAM
(Snell/Pro-Bel) SW-P-08 protocol, then adjust its configuration so that it
refers to KX Router’s logical router matrix ID.
Refer to Configuring a Multiviewer’s Internal Router, in the Kaleido Software
User’s Manual, for more information. See Related Documentation , on
page 15.
Kaleido-X16 HD-SDI monitoring output option (KXS-X16-HDM-D, KXS-
X16-HDM-S)
After upgrading your system from version 5.00 or earlier to version 5.10 or
later, you will have to enter the activation key, in XAdmin, to enable your
multiviewer’s HD-SDI monitoring output feature, if applicable.
