Release Notes
Known Issues and Limitations
•
[Ref. #24418]
Background actions based on router sources:
With the current version of
the Kaleido-X software, a background action based on a router source can only be
triggered when the same router source is used on the monitor wall.
Workaround:
Add a hidden component (e.g., a UMD) to your layouts, and assign the
required router source to this component.
•
[Ref. #25569]
Dialnorm alarms:
After a multi-viewer input has switched from a signal
with dialnorm information to a signal format that does not include this information, the
Dialnorm - Expected
and
Dialnorm - Loudness
alarm indicators may report irrelevant status
information whereas they should be disabled.
•
[Ref. #20570/20702]
False video freeze alarms:
Using a duration of less than 3 seconds for
video freeze debouncing may result in false alarms being generated.
Workaround:
Set the video freeze duration parameter to 3 seconds (or more).
SNMP
•
[Ref. #27416]
Kaleido-IP and SNMP managers:
In the case of a Kaleido-IP, publishing
signal/service probing alarms to SNMP managers is not yet supported.
Workaround:
If an iControl Application Server is available to your system, configure it to
relay your Kaleido-IP alarm status information to the target devices. Refer to “Sharing
Alarm Status Information Between Multi-Viewers and iControl” in the Kaleido-X User’s
Manual, and to “iControl and SNMP” in the iControl User Guide, for more information.
•
[Ref. #19862]
SNMP managers:
Some text status data (e.g., AFD/WSS format, Dolby E or
Dolby VANC encoded dialnorm or program config, etc.) only become available to SNMP
managers once they have been displayed on the monitor wall.
Workaround:
(1) In XEdit, add the text status element from the appropriate source signal
to a logical source (channel). (2) Assign the logical source to a UMD. (3) Load the layout
that includes this monitor on the monitor wall. The text status will then be available to
SNMP managers.
•
[Ref. #14635]
The performance of a Kaleido-X system can be degraded by enabling a
large number of SNMP traps. By default, traps are automatically configured for a logical
source’s global alarm, and for health-related statuses. Each trap contains a cause and
the name of the logical source. Traps for individual physical inputs are disabled by
default. These traps only provide physical input information, with no correlation to a
logical source.
Workaround:
Avoid setting alarm thresholds to short durations—for example, 1 second
for a freeze detection is too low; 10 seconds is adequate.
•
[Ref. #14848]
The Kaleido-X software does not support the SNMP v2 “GetBulk” command.
Performing a GetBulk on kxVideoTable returns “There is no such instance in this MIB”
instead of the data for the table.
Router Control
•
[Ref. #35824]
Internal router control:
In the case of a Kaleido-X or 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-X software, after
upgrading your system to version 5.20 or later, you may need to:
