Kaleido-X Cards
KXO-Dual Output Cards
The KXO-Dual and KXO-Dual3 cards are output cards that can be installed in a Kaleido-X
multiviewer. They are dual-head output cards, meaning that they support two independent
outputs. These outputs, called Head 1 and Head 2, are each provided with a complete set of
connectors.
The KXO-Dual and KXO-Dual3 are multi-function cards that perform a significant portion of
the signal processing required to create the monitor wall output. They incorporate a
mezzanine card mounted on the component side. Each output card is complemented by a
rear panel (KXO-Dual-R) that holds all input and output connectors associated with the
card.
Output cards can be installed in any of the two available OUTPUT slots inside a Kaleido-X
frame. These slots are color-coded YELLOW on the front and rear panel of the frame.
A Kaleido-X frame must contain at least one output card. In systems with two cards, one
card is considered the master card, and the other is a slave, from a processing point of view.
• If both Output slots A and B are occupied, the card in Output A becomes the master.
