Summary
The K2™ Dyno™ Controller is a controller that is designed to provide fast and
accurate operations controlling a K2 S ummit™ Prod uction Client o r K2 Solo™
Media Server. Operations include searching, replaying video or scenes, storing
highlights, and creating playlists. The K2 Dyno Controller can control channels
configured for ChannelFlex™ Suite features on the K2 system.
K2 Dyno Controller features are as follows:
• Its simple system configuration en ables comfo rtable operations even in a limited
sp
ace.
• The touch panel allows for intuitive operations. For operations that require more
accuracy, you can operate the controller using only the physical buttons.
• Connecting a keyboard, mouse, and second display allows you to set up a more
comfortable operating environment.
• All of the ed ited data (excluding Mark and Scene ) is saved in the K2 Summit
Production Client. Theref ore, you can continue your operation without losin g your
data in the unlikely event of a malfunction in the K2 Dyno Controller.
• The settings of the K2 Dyno Controller , that you set in t he CONFIG screen, can be
exported and imported to anot her K2 Dyno Controller, which en ables you to set up
the same settings easily.
• The controller provides easy mix effect editing. A diss olve effect can be applied t o
a scene switch just by t ouchin g th e panel . In addi tion, thi s can be perfo rmed usi ng
only 1 channel.
How to read this manual
This User Manual contains the operation procedures to use the K2 Dyno Controller,
concerning the editing functions that are often used in a live event broadcast.
Operations can be performed intuitively with the touch panel and buttons. Operation
proce
dures with the touch panel are mainly described; however, button operations are
mentioned together when the same operations can be performed with the buttons. You
can also perform important operations with the physical buttons.
For example, when operations are described as follows, the operation results by
orming step 2 and will be the same.
perf
In addition, if there is eno ugh room in your edit ing spac e, a mouse, keyboa rd, numerica l
keypa
d, or second display can be connected to the controller for comfort ab le operations
that suit your preferences. If you are using a controller with a mouse or keyboard
connected, a touch panel operation can be replaced either by a click operation with a
mouse, or by a value entry operation with a keyboard or numerical keypad, unless
otherwise noted.
