KARRERA — User Manual 21
Karrera System Examples
The KSP is an optional 1-ME Soft Panel GUI which provides direct control
of switching crosspoints, recalling effects and macros together with an inte
-
grated version of the Karrera Menu application. A customized PC key-
board is included with the option for users who like quick cut and mix
action from a hard-button interface. The KSP can be used as an adjunct to a
main panel, providing a second seat (second control surface) in a Suite, or
as the only control surface for a second Suite.
The KSP GUI application is designed to run on a PC platform. The screen
must be 1920x1080 resolution or better (which is common in professional
video environments). A touchscreen is not required, but can be very useful.
The KSP software is included with the switcher application software. Pur-
chasing the option provides a software license that enables the interface,
and includes a customized PC keyboard. The license activates an unlimited
number of KSP applications associated with a video processor frame.
Additional customized PC keyboards are also available for purchase.
Karrera System Examples
Basic Single Suite System
A basic Karrera system consists of a Control Panel, a Karrera Menu appli-
cation running on a PC, and a Video Processor Frame. The Control Panel
and Menu application make up a control surface associated with that frame
(

Multiple Suites and Control Surfaces
A Karrera system can be subdivided into two suites, if desired, each of
which can have two control surfaces. Hardware resources in the Video Pro
-
cessor Frame can be assigned to an individual suite during configuration,
essentially creating two separate switchers from one Karrera system
(
Figure 7).
