OPERATION
The Protector is a microprocessor-based system. The current operating system is running on a
500 MHz or greater CPU. The operating system is 2000 Professional
. See appendix __ for
typical LAN software settings.
The main software engine of the Protector is the Graphical User Interface (GUI). The GUI is a
custom application that gives you full control over all features of the video scaling board and the
combining board. The combiner handles all of the general-purpose interrupt (GPI) function as
well as the mixing of foreground and background video. The unit also features two distributed
background outputs for use in other areas of your system (one of which is used as a genlock
signal for the foreground video). With the built in flexibility of the system and its GUI, the
system can serve many purposes, however, this manual will cover the most important facets of
the “stock ticker” application. So, let’s get started!
GETTING STARTED
Once you have every thing connected for initial setup we can configure the Protector for
operation.
Set the MAIN POWER SWITCH (fig. 1) to the ON position (noted by a visible white dash at the
top of the main power switch).
Once the operating system is up and running, you will get a network sign-on prompt. The initial
start up USER ID and PASSWORD are both the serial number of your Protector. The user may
change this once in and comfortable with the operation of the unit.
