Ross Carbonite Series Setup Manual

ViewControl
ViewControl integrates the MultiViewer output of the
switcher with a graphical overlay from DashBoard to
provide live video in the ViewControl windows.
Keep the following in mind when working with
ViewControl:
• ViewControl requires DashBoard 5.1, or later.
Connecting ViewControl
ViewControl combines an overlay image from
DashBoard with a custom MultiViewer output from the
switcher to generate the interface. This requires some
external SDI/HDMI video conversion equipment, as well
as a touchscreen display.

The following connections are required for ViewControl:
• Set the output resolution of the DashBoard
computer to either 1920×1080 or 1280×720.
• Use an HDMI to SDI converter to take the output
of the DashBoard and put it into a resolution that
the switcher can use. Ensure that the resolution is
not changed.
• Apply a FSFC to the input that is coming from the
DashBoard computer.
• Set up a MultiViewer to use the ViewControl
layout.
• Use an SDI to HDMI converter to take the output
of the switcher and put it into a resolution that the

resolution is not changed.

DashBoard computer.
