Changing the Output Resolution
,
on page 7, for detailed instructions.
• You may need to upgrade your Kaleido-RCP2 devices (if available) to the
latest firmware. The update file can be found on the DVD that shipped with
your multiviewer, and on Grass Valley’s support portal. Please refer to the
Kaleido-RCP2 Guide to Installation and Operation
(available on the DVD, and
from the portal), for instructions on how to determine the firmware level,
and how to perform the upgrade.
Notes
• Depending on your display type, you may use the DisplayPort-to-HDMI
that shipped with your system, or DisplayPort-to-DVI adapters (not
included).
• Although the Kaleido-IP unit has one DVI and two DisplayPort outputs,
only the two DisplayPort outputs are used.
• If your displays are not collocated with your Kaleido-IP unit, you may
choose to employ DXF-200 transmitter/receiver devices that allow you to
install a display up to 1,000 meters (3,300 feet) from the signal source. In
this case, use a proper DisplayPort-to-HDMI cable between the Kaleido-IP
and the DXF-200-TX module. Stringing DisplayPort-to-DVI and DVI-to-
HDMI adapters together between the multiviewer and the DXF-200 is not
a supported configuration.
For more information on the DXF-200, refer to the
DXF-200 DVI/HDMI
Optical Extension System User’s Manual,
available on Grass Valley’s support
portal.
1.The Kaleido-X software does not support activating a soft shutdown from the Kaleido-IP frame’s power
button.
IMPORTANT
Should you wish to add or replace a display or AV receiver at a later time,
make sure the multiviewer is powered off, before making these changes. In
the advent that you have connected such a device while the multiviewer was
running, you must restart the multiviewer for audio monitoring to be
functional. Refer to
Restarting and Shutting Down a Kaleido-IP Multiviewer
, in
the Kaleido-X User’s Manual.
