About the GV K-Frame XP System Cabling Section
This section provides overview information that is common to all GV K-Frame XP systems as
well as information specific to Kayenne, Karrera, and GV Korona Control Panels and
components.
System Cabling Overview
The GV K-Frame XP systems use Ethernet, serial, and USB connections and custom multi-pin
cables for systems with Kayenne Control Panels. The GV K-Frame XP Video Processors have
built-in Ethernet switches. Each Video Processor has Tally outputs and GPI I/O (General
Purpose Interface Input/Output) control available.
Ethernet Tally Verses Serial Tally
Our GV K-Frame XP tally system provides significantly more information than the
bandwidth of the serial connection. Therefore, we support Ethernet tally only. However,
many tally vendors do support our Ethernet tally system so contact your tally vendor for GV
K-Frame XP Ethernet tally support information.
Suites and Control Surfaces
A GV K-Frame XP system can be divided into four suites. The Video Processor resources
(M/Es, eDPMs, external devices, etc.) can be assigned to each suite, creating multiple
switchers with one Frame. Each suite can be subdivided into two control surfaces, using
Kayenne, Karrera, and GV Korona Control Panels, Soft Panels, and Menu on PC. Each control
surface is intended for use by a single operator. The Control Panel system flexibility permits
locating these control surfaces in physically separate locations.
Network Cabling
The Ethernet switches built into the GV K-Frame XP Video Processor and PCU (Kayenne
only) auto-detect speed and polarity, and are 10/100/1000 Mbps capable. Either straight-
through or crossover Ethernet cabling can be used. Available Ethernet connectors may be
connected to the Facility LAN or other devices, as needed. However, should the Video
Processor or PCU power down, the internal Ethernet switches will also power down,
interrupting communication to devices connected to that Frame’s or PCU’s internal
Ethernet switches. Only connect devices that are GV K-Frame XP system related.
