Hardware Description & Installation Manual
All other adjustment, alignment and configuration of this card are accomplished using
external controllers (e.g. the XEdit software), and are documented in their respective
manuals.
GPI/Genlock Card
The KXA-GPI-GEN card provides status monitoring, genlock and GPI I/O interfacing for the
Kaleido-X.
The GPI/Genlock card fits in the Kaleido-X frame. It is complemented by a rear panel
connector KXA-GPI-GEN-R that houses all input and output connectors associated with the
card.
The GPI/Genlock card must be installed in the MAIN slot in the Kaleido-X frame. This slot is
color-coded GREY on the front and rear panel of the frame.
The GPI/Genlock card is connected to the other cards in the Kaleido-X frame through the
frame's internal midplane. See
Card Installation and Replacement
on page 9, for
instructions on installing the card and the rear panel.
Rear Panel Connections
External connections to the GPI/Genlock card are made through connectors mounted on
the KXA-GPI-GEN-R rear panel. These connectors carry both input and output signals.
Note:
This card is optional, and is not included in the basic package. You
must purchase and install this card to enable the GPI/Genlock features of the
Kaleido-X.
Notes
• Be careful to install the KXA-GPI-GEN-R rear panel in the matching location
at the rear of the frame.
• The GPI/Genlock card and its rear panel can be installed in any order.
• Kaleido-X cards are hot-swappable; it is not necessary to turn off the
