Before getting started
This installation guide provides step-by-step instructions for installing the PVS3000
and PVS3500 Media Platforms using factory default settings. After installing the
Profile XP Media Platform using this installation guide, you can refer to the Profile
XP System Guide to customize system settings for your installation.
For Grass Valley Customer Support information, refer to page 47 of this Installation
Guide.
About channels and factory default configuration
Profile applications use channels to control disk recording and playback. A channel
defines a gr ouping of Profile XP vi deo, audio, and timecode resourc es and is
identified by a unique name. Profile XP software supports three channel types:
Recorder channel, Player channel, or Player/Recorder channel. For more information
on channel t ypes and creating or modifying channels, refer t he Profile XP System
Guide.
Your Profile XP Media Platform is shipped with default Recorder and Player
channels. These default channels are named Vtr1, Vtr2, Vtr3 and so on. The following
table describes the vi deo and audi o connections you’ll make for th e two channe l
types. On the pages that follow, you’ll find specifics about the type and number of
default channels in your system, and their video and audio I/O connections.

Your Profile XP Media Platform is shipped with several standard accessories as
shown in the table. Locate the accessories you need for your installation and proceed.

About PVS3000 and PVS3500
The PVS3000 Series introduces the ability to use standard and high definition
hardware in the same Media Platform. Various models provide d ifferent capabilities,
depending on the hardware and software licenses t hat you purchase.
PVS3000
The PVS3000 provides separate SD and HD hardware in a single Media Platform.
You can define SD and HD channels that can run concurrently in your system.
SD channels allow you to record SD clips in MPEG (I-frame, Long GoP, or D-10),
DVCPRO 25, and DVCPRO 50 formats using your standard definition SDI inputs.
You can play clips in any combination of these formats on any SD channel using an
SDI output.
Before getting started
PVS3500
HD channels let you record and play high definition clips with your HD-SDI inputs
and outputs.
The PVS3500 includes an Agile Output software license that enables you to play SD
and HD clips through an H D decoder .
If your Definition Independent HD/SD Player channel includes a standard definition
SDI output, SD clips play out normally, and all HD clips are down-converted to SD
format with the aspect ratio conversion that you set with Configuration Manager.
If your HD/SD Player channel includes an HD-SDI output, HD clips play out
normally, and all SD clips are up-converted to HD format with the aspect ratio
conversion that you se t with Configuration Manager.
NOTE: SD clips must be in MPEG 4:2:0 format to play out on a Definition
Independent channel.

System power-off and reboot procedure
When you power-off or reboot your Profile XP Platform and RAID storage system,
you must follow the proper sequence as described in the following procedure.
NOTE: If your Profile XP Media Platform is part of an Open SAN, disregard this
procedure, and refer to the instructions in the Open SAN Instruction Manual for
shutting down the Open SAN.
1. Power-off the RAID storage system by powering-off the RAID Controller chassis
prior to, or at the same time as the RAID Expansion chassis.
CAUTION: You must alwa ys power off the PFR500 RAID Controller chassis prior
!
to, or at the same time as the PFR500E Expansion Chassis. Failure to do so may
force some LUNs offline. This will cause loss of access to the media file system
when the system is powered on again. Refer to the Profile XP System Guide for
instructions on how to recover from improper power-off sequence.
2. Wait approximately 30 seconds for the disk drives to spin down, then power-on all
RAID Expansion chassis, then all RAID Controller chassis. Always power-on the
RAID Expansion chassis prior to, or at the same time as the RAID Controller
chassis.
3. Wait for RAID storage initialization, as follows:
- PFR700 RAID Storage sy stems - Wait until all disk access LEDs are steady —
approximately 4 minutes. The controller READY LED must be ON, the front
Power LED must be ON, and the front Service LED must be OFF. (Refer to the
PFR700 Instruction Manual to interpret other disk access LED or status LED
behavior.)
- PFR600 RAID Storage sy stems - Wait until all disk access LEDs are steady
green— approximately 4 minutes. The rear panel 7-segment LED displays the
chassis address. (Refer to the PFR 600 Instruction Manual to interpret other disk
access LED or 7-segment LED behavior.)
- PFR500 RAID Storage sy stems - Wait until all disk access LEDs are steady
green— approximately 4 minutes. The rear panel 7-segment LED displays the
chassis address and the HOST RDY light is on. (Refer to the PFR500 Instruction
Manual to interpret other disk access LED or 7-segment LED behavior.)
- PFC500 RAID Storage systems - Wait until the System Check LED is off and all
disk access LEDs are steady green— approximately 2 minutes. (Refer to the
PFC500 Instruction Manual to interpret other front panel LED behavior.)
On the Profile XP Media Platform, shut down and restart the Windows operating
system. Wait for auto-logon as described in “Start your system” on page 17.
