Commissioning the Multiviewer
To make the multiviewer operational
1 With the KMV-3901/3911 frame installed in its designated rack position, and before
powering up the unit, verify that each card is securely seated in its slot, and leave the
frame door open so that you can monitor all the card’s LEDs.
2 Power up the frame.
The multiviewer starts up. The startup sequence takes approximately four minutes,
during which time every card’s status LED is blinking orange. See
Card Interfaces , on
page 15.
Once the startup has completed, the status LEDs on the output cards should be red
(steady) because the cards are not connected to the network yet. See Card Interfaces ,
on page 15.
3 Connect the Kaleido-RCP2 and the Audio Bridge Terminal (if available) to a dedicated
100Base-T Ethernet switch (see Cabling Diagram , on page 21). You can also connect a
mouse and a keyboard to your Kaleido-RCP2.
4 Connect the multiviewer’s outputs to your displays. See Cabling Diagram , on page 21.
To change the display resolution, see Changing the Mosaic Output Resolution , on
page 100.
5 Connect one or more video sources to the multiviewer’s inputs (see Cabling Diagram ,
on page 21).
6 Connect a reference source (if available) to one or more reference inputs.
7 Connect the controller card’s ETH 1 port to your Ethernet switch (see Cabling Diagram ,
on page 21).
Note:
For more information on the card’s LEDs, see Card Interfaces , on
page 15.
Notes
• You may need to upgrade your Audio Bridge Terminal and Kaleido-RCP2
devices (if available) to the latest firmware. See Software and Firmware
Updates , on page 10. Refer to the Kaleido-RCP2 Guide to Installation and
Operation , and to the Audio Bridge Terminal Guide to Installation and
Operation for instructions on how to determine the firmware level, and
how to perform the upgrade for these devices.

• The KMV-3901/3911 (1RU) supports only one ABT device.
Note:
A reference is optional but, if minimal processing delay is required for
your monitoring purposes, then you must reference your system. However, if
you must monitor 50 Hz input signals on 60 Hz displays (or vice-versa), then
do not reference your system.
Note:
The KMV-3901/3911 does not support the controller card’s second
Ethernet port (ETHERNET 2).
