Kayak HD — Installation and Service Manual 41
4 RU Frame
License EEPROMs
Kayak systems use two EEPROM (Electronically Erasable Programmable
Read Only Memory) chips to set the licenses that determine which features
are available for use. Licensing is keyed off of the serial number for the
Kayak frame.
Note If you have a frame and are replacing it with a new frame, the new license
stored in the EEPROM chips for the new frame is issued to the serial number
for the new frame.

Note If you have to exchange your frame for any reason you may want to first pull
the two EEPROMs to put in your new frame. Make sure they are put in the
right position (the same position they had on the older frame).
Note You should always keep a copy of your license text file or you may lose all
features, including Inputs, chroma keys, and DPMs. If you have lost your
license, contact Customer Service. (See
Contacting Grass Valley on page 4.)
