Hardware Description & Installation Manual
2 Click a first head. In the
Properties
pane, its name appears in the
Output head
box.
3 Select the appropriate Kaleido-IP head from the
Layer 2 head (for cascade
configuration)
list.
Since the Kaleido-IP/Kaleido-X16 cascade does not support a third layer, leave
Layer 3
head (for cascade configuration)
unassigned.
4 In the case of a dual-head cascade room, repeat the procedure to configure the head
layer assignments for the other Kaleido-X16 head.
5 On the
File

The updated room configuration is automatically propagated to the Kaleido-IP.
Configuring Layouts for a Cascade Room
Creating cascade layouts is no different than creating any regular layout. The only limitation
is that all layout creation and configuration must be performed in online mode, while
connected to one of the cascade members.
• When you configure layouts for a cascade room, all logical sources from all the
multiviewers associated with this cascade room are available.
• When you save a Kaleido-IP/Kaleido-X16 cascade layout, any changes are automatically
propagated to the other multiviewer in the cascade.
Setting the Same Channels/Sources Content Between Multiviewers
When configuring the Alarm and Text Levels in XEdit under the
Channels/Sources
tab, you
must ensure that both the level names and level order are identical on all cascaded
multiviewers. The level order is determined by the
Sequence number
. When you click a level
name, the
Sequence number
for that column is shown under the
Properties
tab in the right
pane. The
Sequence number
for a given level must match across all cascaded multiviewers.
Otherwise text levels and alarms behavior will be incoherent depending on which
multiviewer is providing the alarm data and which multiviewer is presenting the alarm
data. Internally, the multiviewers process the source column based on the column’s
Sequence number
only.
The properties showing that the Sequence Number is 6 for the selected level name
