Creating and Configuring a Channel
When opening XEdit in offline mode, the initial database is populated with the default configuration for a
Kaleido-X (7RU) system, including a fully-populated frame (all cards present) and a set of factory channels.
The KX Router logical router is also created as a 96×80 router where the 96 inputs are the channels, the
first 48 outputs are those from the two router cards, and the last 32 outputs are monitor wall destinations.
Adding a Channel
To add a channel:
1. Click the
Channels/Sources
tab in the main window.
Incremental copy
Once a channel is configured, it is possible to use incremental copy to automatically propagate
appropriate physical assignments to other adjacent channels. For instance, if the current
channel’s levels are assigned from Video 1, then the incremental copy tool will automatically
assign corresponding physical elements from Video 2 to the next channel’s levels, and so on.
Alternatively, if only one or a few specific levels are to be similarly configured, it is possible to
use incremental copy on the corresponding level column only.
Incremental copy zone
In the channels table, the incremental copy zone is indicated by a small square
at
the bottom right of the selected cell.
