Customizing your greenMachine
The greenMachine titan comes standard with basic routing and audio analog to digital
conversion functionalities. All further video and audio processing functionalities are
defined by the deployed constellation.
Constellation
A constellation is an arrangement of different functionalities. Constellations define what
video and/or audio functionality is needed on what processing path. The greenMachine
titan has four 3G processing paths or one 12G processing path. When deploying a new
constellation, one can choose between constellation types for 3G or 12G 4K/UHD.
