Sample Files
Sample files or other elements and instructions for use are available with an installer from
the Grass Valley website starting with version 8.0. New K-Frame systems are shipped with
the Samples directory installed. When upgrading, install the samples after the initial
software upgrade; visit www.grassvalley.com. The installer can be used to place the
K-Frame samples in the C:\K_Frame\user\Samples directory on the GV Switcher system.
For Compact S-series Frames, samples that are built using more than four keyers will need
some customization before incorporating those elements into a production.
Materials Required
You will need the following materials for this update:
• Version 10.6 Software; K-FrameSetup.exe, which can be downloaded from the Grass
Valley Customer Support website along with the latest ClipStore/Summit software,
Release Notes, and Release Notes Addendum, and copied to a USB stick,
• Backup media for configuration and effects files,
• USB mouse and keyboard, and
• a Menu Panel, or user PC, properly configured on the switcher system network.
Update the K-Frame Software
This software update procedure assumes your Grass Valley switcher system is fully
operational with all network communications properly configured. Refer to the
K-Frame
Installation & Service Manual
for configuration instructions.
Back up Current Configuration and Effects Files:
1 Save your system configuration files (Eng Setup, User Setups), and your operational
registers (EMEM, Macros, etc.) and other settings. You can create a Show file that
contains all this information. See the K-Frame Kayenne/Karrera/GV Korona User Manual
for file operations instructions.
.
2 Store the backup media in a safe place. You may want to use these files if you decide to
back down to that earlier software version.
Deploy the Switcher Update Package Files and Installer:
1 Exit the Menu application and any other applications that may be running on the Menu
Panel or PC.
Note:
A convenient location to save these backup files is on the USB stick
of the software version that created the files (the older software being
updated). Create a new folder on that older software USB stick for the file
and name the Show file with the current date.
