Section 1 — Introduction
Soft Panel (KSP) Option
Figure 12. Soft Panel Application
The KSP is an optional 1-ME Soft Panel GUI which provides direct control
of switching crosspoints, recalling effects and macros together with an inte-
grated version of the Menu application. A customized PC keyboard is
included with the option for users who like quick cut and mix action from
a hard-button interface. The KSP can be used as an adjunct to a main panel,
providing a second seat (second control surface) in a Suite, or as the only
control surface for a second Suite.
The KSP GUI application is designed to run on a PC platform. The screen
must be 1920x1080 resolution or better (which is common in professional
video environments). A touchscreen is not required, but can be very useful.
The KSP software is included with the switcher application software. Pur-
chasing the option provides a software license that enables the interface,
and includes a customized PC keyboard. The license activates an unlimited
number of KSP applications associated with a video processor frame.
Additional customized PC keyboards are also available for purchase.
Menu Application
The Menu application software provided with every K-Frame system can
be run on a standard PC. This software accesses all the system’s function-
ality, permitting mouse and keyboard control from a laptop, or remote
control from any location on the network.
