Additional notes
The following sections contain additional information to ensure smooth operation of
Aurora Ingest with other systems.
Setting up AMP control on a K2 Client
With Aurora Ingest Server, K2 Media Clients and K2 Summit Production Clients are
controlled via AMP Protocol over Ethernet.
To set up AMP control of a K2 Client:
1. On AppCenter of the client, click the
Options
button for the desired panel.
2. Set the Control setting to either
Remote Only
or
Remote and Local
and the Protocol
setting to
AMP
. Repeat this step for each panel that will be controlled remotely by Aurora
Ingest.
3. In the Ingest Server application, go to
Tools | Options | Media Server
and add the name
of the client.
4. In the Ingest Server application, go to
Tools | Options | Channel
and add each channel
that will be controlled on the K2 or Summit. In the Channel dropdown list, “VTR1”
corresponds to the “R1” panel on the K2 or Summit, “VTR2” corresponds to the “R2”
panel, etc.
NOTE: Refer to the “Installing and Configuring Aurora Ingest” section of the Aurora
Ingest System Guide for more detailed information about configuring media servers and
channels.
