In addition, once communication is properly set up with the GVG DPM-700, the “ DVE Send ” feature
is operational. This feature allows you to perform fast and simple DVE transitions from the switcher
panel — as easy as selecting a Dissolve or a Wipe. When you set up a
DVE Send transition, you are
electronically routing a specific set of signals from the selected MLE to the GVG DPM-700 for
processing — and then
back into the MLE for keying.
In the Synergy Series Operation Guide , refer to Chapter 11, “ DVE Send ” for complete instructions
on the DVE Send feature.
DPM-700 Serial Connection
This section describes the requirements for interfacing the Synergy switcher to the GVG DPM-700.
Use the following procedure to connect the GVG DPM-700 to the Synergy switcher:
1. On the rear panel of the GVG DPM-700, locate the connector marked
J6
ACCESSORY
.
2. Locate the connector marked
DVE 1
on the Synergy frame.
3. Construct an RS-422 Null Modem cable using the following table as a guide. The cable
must use standard male 9-pin “D” subminiature connectors at both ends.
4. Using the Null Modem cable, connect the
ACCESSORY
connector on the DPM-700 to
the
DVE 1
connector on the Synergy frame.
This concludes the procedure to connect the GVG DPM-700 to the Synergy switcher.
DPM-700 Setup Specifics
The factory default protocol for the
ACCESSORY
port on the DPM 700 is Standard 100/200/300. If
this has been changed, the DPM 700 Diagnostic Software Disk (GVG Assembly Number 074751)
will be required to reset the port.
Note The GVG DPM-700 does not support fader bar control nor full
transition rate control of the DVE.
