control panel, or from the KMV-3901/3911 control panel in iControl, then repeat the
previous steps for each.
If only the IP address was changed then no further action is required. Otherwise, if the
system name was changed, then proceed as follows.
4Connect to System A.
5 Change something in every room (e.g. move a display and then bring it back to its
initial position) to enable the Save button.
6 Save the room.
This will replicate the proper room configuration to the other members of the cluster.
(At the same time, the layouts will also be updated on all multiviewers in the cluster.)
Configuring the System Representation
•The Kaleido-IP has two, four, or six network adapters, depending on the model, and
two multiviewer outputs. Configuring your Kaleido-IP’s system representation in XEdit
includes adding or removing transport streams until the representation matches the
set of transport streams you wish to monitor.
See Managing Transport Streams in a
Kaleido-IP System Representation below, for details.
•In the case of a Kaleido-X (4RU), Kaleido-X (7RU), or expansion systems, configuring
your system’s representation in XEdit includes adding or removing cards until the
representation matches the hardware configuration of your actual multiviewer.
See
Managing Cards in a Kaleido-X System Representation on page 100, for details.
• This section does not apply to the Kaleido-X16, Kaleido-XQUAD, and KMV-3901/3911,
which have a set number of virtual card slots that represent hardware features
integrated within their main board. In XEdit, these virtual card slots are, for the most
part, equivalent to their physical counterparts on the Kaleido-X models (see
page 63).
Managing Transport Streams in a Kaleido-IP System Representation
Although it is possible to partly configure your Kaleido-IP system by using XEdit in offline
mode, you must work in online mode, at least once, to obtain the list of programs and
elementary streams under each transport stream (see
Using XEdit Online, on page 67). The
supported stream types are source-specific multicast, source-filtered multicast (filtering
limited to a single source IP in include mode only), any-source multicast, and unicast.
If you need to monitor a large number of programs, you may find it convenient to import
related configuration information, from a spreadsheet in XLS or XLSX format. At the same
time, the logical sources associated with the programs specified in the spreadsheet will be
automatically added to the sources table. A sample spreadsheet is available on the DVD
that shipped with your system, and from Miranda’s support portal.
• To prepare your spreadsheet, see Preparing a Spreadsheet with Stream Lineup
Information, on page 90.
• Once you have prepared your spreadsheet, refer to Importing a Stream Lineup, on
page 88.
• To add SSM or SFM transport streams, manually, see Adding a Source-Specific or
Source-Filtered Multicast Transport Stream, on page 92.
• To add ASM transport streams, manually, see Adding an Any-Source Multicast
Transport Stream, on page 94.
