Routers & Kaleido-X

If the audio mapping mirrors the video mapping, then, when a video switch is made (e.g. from Video
1 to Video 2), the corresponding audio will follow (i.e. the same command will switch a crosspoint in
both the physical video router and the physical audio router).
Note: In Miranda’s iRouter, there are graphical interfaces for controlling routers (single bus and matrix)
where you can specify “all follow” (change all levels) or “breakaway”. When you make a crosspoint
change in a logical router, you can change all of the logical levels, or just specific ones. When using the
monitor wall, only the “all follow” mode is supported. If you need to set up breakaway switches, you
must use other software (e.g. iRouter), or a router controller (e.g. Pro-Bel SW-P-08).
At this point, you have completed the definition of an external router.
Configuring a Router Controller
There are two categories of router controllers that can be used to control the routers connected to
(controlled by) a Kaleido-X:
• Simple router controllers (e.g. Network Compact)
• Intelligent router controllers (e.g. Pro-Bel SW-P-08)
Adding a Network Compact Router Controller
A Network Compact router controller can issue switching commands to a specific router connected to
(controlled by) the Kaleido-X, which will act as a “protocol translator”.
To add a Network Compact (or equivalent) router controller:
1. Click and drag Router Controller (Network Compact) from the Equipment library to the System
hierarchical list:
