Suites
A suite is a grouping of one or more control surfaces (described below), and constitutes a
coordinated working environment. Resources are attached to a suite rather than to
individual control surfaces. All control surfaces in one suite have access to all resources
assigned to that suite (collaborative sharing). Control surfaces in one suite are not able to
control resources assigned to another suite (independent sharing).
Control Surface
A control surface is generally a group of panels which interact and provide a single user a
unified work surface. An example of this type of control surface is a Control Panel and Menu
Panel of a 4-M/E switcher system. These panels combine to form a Technical Director’s (TD)
control surface. Other Control Panel modules or additional Menu Panels can be added to a
control surface.
A control surface may also consist of a single item. For example, a Menu Panel (or a laptop
computer running the GV Switcher menu application) or a KSP (see the KSP Switcher Soft
