OG-US-4000 User Manual
Control and Configuration:
Software:
The Apantac OG-US-4000 model is controlled and configured through the openGear frame’s
control software ‘Dashboard’ by Ross Video inc. Dashboard can be acquired through the Ross
Video website; https://www.rossvideo.com
Dashboard software runs on PC’s and connects to the openGear frame’s control card via Ether-
net. The IP address of the openGear frame is displayed on the LCD panel on the front of the
frame. The openGear frame may have a fixed IP address or use DHCP.
The openGear frame’s control card communicates to the individual openGear cards via the
frame’s internal CANBUS (Controlled Area Network). CANBUS communicates to the frame’s
slots
and all control and configuration of the OG-US-4000 cards is through the Dashboard-
CANBUS channels.
The Apantac OG-US-4000 Dashboard interface is shown above. Each Apantac OG-US-4000 card
should be recognized by Dashboard and displayed by the installed slot number.
