ESD Protection
Electronics today are more susceptible to electrostatic discharge (ESD) damage than older equipment. Damage to equipment can occur by ESD fields that are smaller than you can feel. Implementing the information in this section will help you protect the investment that you have made in purchasing Grass Valley equipment. This section contains Grass Valley’s recommended ESD guidelines that should be followed when handling electrostatic discharge sensitive (ESDS) items. These minimal recommendations are based on the information in the Sources of ESD and Risks area. The information in Grounding Requirements for Personnel is provided to assist you in selecting an appropriate grounding method.
Recommended ESD Guidelines
Follow these guidelines when handling Grass Valley equipment:
• Only trained personnel that are connected to a grounding system should handle ESDS items.
• Do not open any protective bag, box, or special shipping packaging until you have been
grounded.
NOTE: When a Personal Grounding strap is unavailable, as an absolute minimum, touch a metal object that is touching the floor (for example, a table, frame, or rack) to discharge any static energy before touching an ESDS item.
• Open the anti-static packaging by slitting any existing adhesive tapes. Do not tear the tapes off.
• Remove the ESDS item by holding it by its edges or by a metal panel.
• Do not touch the components of an ESDS item unless it is absolutely necessary to configure
or repair the item.
• Keep the ESDS work area clear of all nonessential items such as coffee cups, pens, wrappers and personal items as these items can discharge static. If you need to set an ESDS item down, place it on an anti-static mat or on the anti-static packaging.
Sources of ESD and Risks
The following information identifies possible sources of electrostatic discharge and can be used to help establish an ESD policy.
Personnel
One of the largest sources of static is personnel. The static can be released from a person’s clothing and shoes.
Environment
The environment includes the humidity and floors in a work area. The humidity level must be controlled and should not be allowed to fluctuate over a broad range. Relative humidity (RH) is a major part in determining the level of static that is being generated. For example, at 10% - 20% RH a person walking across a carpeted floor can develop 35kV; yet when the relative humidity is increased to 70% - 80%, the person can only generate 1.5kV.
Static is generated as personnel move (or as equipment is moved) across a floor’s surface. Carpeted and waxed vinyl floors contribute to static build up.
Work Surfaces
Painted or vinyl-covered tables, chairs, conveyor belts, racks, carts, anodized surfaces, plexiglass covers, and shelving are all static generators.

16 Appendix: Changing an IP-address

After changing the playout nodes’, TX/MAM or FTP-servers’ IP-address, following adjustments need to be made:
After changing the IP-address of the playout nodes:
1. Change the IP-address in Cobalt Asset Manager Channel settings.
After changing the virtual IP-address of the TX/MAM-servers:
On standalone demo systems, the /system/txmam_fix_ip.sh script can be used.
1. On the K2Edge nodes, in /etc/hosts adjust MAIN-DB. Specify the virtual IP of the TX/MAM servers. Example:
You can also set the IP-address of the TX/MAM server via the IP Manager.
2. On both the TX/MAM servers, in /usr/local/apache2/application/configs/application.ini, adjust project_options.serverip. Specify the virtual IP of the TX/MAM
servers.
Example:
3. On both the TX/MAM servers, in usr/local/apache2/application/configs/ingest.ini, adjust ingest.assetHostIp. Specify the virtual IP of the TX/MAM servers. Example:
After changing the IP-address of the FTP-server:
1. On both the TX/MAM servers, in /usr/local/apache2/application/configs/videoftp.ini, adjust:
• videoFtp.host to the FTP-server IP
• videoFtp.user to FTP-server user
• videoFtp.password to FTP-server password
• videoFtp.path to FTP-server path
2. On the TX/MAM server (main and backup) in /system/objects/cobassets/bin/transfer_ftp.xml, adjust the transfer metadata. Transfer metadata can be set with the /system/objects/cobassets/bin/set.sh script.

18 Appendix: K2 Edge IOs

18.1 Tiles

De K2 Edge contains 8 bidirectional SDI-ports. One video format can be configured per tile. IO1 is always configured as input and IO2 as output to be able to use the bypass relay. A number of presets have been defined for the K2 Edge. These presets are selected via the IP Manager.
IOs and tiles.

18.2 Bypass

Ports IO1 (input) and IO2 (output) can be internally connected to bypass a Channel. When set to bypass, the signal of the main Channel is ignored, and instead the feed received at IO1 is made available at IO2. Bypass is enabled via the IP Manager.

18.3 Master and Slaves

To make a Channel's signal available on several SDI-outputs, one or more of the IO-ports can be configured to become slave outputs. By default, the signal provided by a slave output is an exact copy of the master output signal. A slave output uses the properties of the master Output it refers to, and thus cannot introduce another broadcast format for the same Channel.

18.4 Genlock

If enabled, the SDI-output synchronizes to the frame rhythm of the genlock (blackburst) signal connected to the blackburst BNC-socket on the back of the server. If disabled, or when no genlock signal can be detected, the output will synchronize to an internal clock. Genlock can only be set for master outputs.

19 Appendix: Supported input/output broadcast
format combinations
IO-ports can be configured as SDI-inputs. The incoming signal can be made available to one or more Channels, for example for coverage of live events. Inputs behave much like clips on the K2Edge; they can be queued and started at any time. Inputs be can shared over multiple Channels, and each Channel can handle several inputs simultaneously.
In Channel Composer, the Live Object is used to manage inputs.
At the moment there is no support for auto sensing the incoming signal’s format. The input broadcast format does not have to be an exact match of the Channel/output format, but both frame rate and interlaced/progressive mode must match.
Supported input/output broadcast format combinations are:
• PAL -> 1080@50i
• 1080@50i -> PAL
• NTSC -> 1080@59.94i
• 1080@59.94i -> NTSC
