• Laptop users will receive an I.M.T. box, not the I.M.T. scroll card.
1.3 IMT Scroll Card
The I.M.T. scroll card allows WinCue Pro News to prompt text in any language. Data
from the scroll card is sent to the prompter screen via the on-board composite video
channel. The I.M.T. card also features an on-board genlock port. In addition, an I.M.T.
scroll control can be attached to the I.M.T. card leaving all the ports on your PC free
for other peripherals.
1.4 Installing the Hardware - Desktop PCs
Before installing the WinCue Pro News software you have to install the IMT scroll card.
Your PC must be turned off before the I.M.T. scroll card can be installed.
The I.M.T. card will have been configured prior to despatch for the settings required
in your country. Therefore changes to jumpers or dipswitch settings should not be
necessary.
1.4.1 Installing the I.M.T. Card Inside a PC
Remove the cover from the PC’s case.
1. The I.M.T. card should be connected to the end of the SCSI cable.
2. Find a free PCI slot inside the PC.
3. Remove the appropriate blanking plate.
4. Carefully insert the I.M.T. card.
5. Connect the SCSI cable to the I.M.T. card.
6. Replace the PC’s cover.
1.4.2 Connecting a Scroll Control
The standard scroll control used with WinCue Pro News is the I.M.T. scroll control. The
I.M.T. scroll control port is the 9 pin analogue port on the back of the I.M.T. card.
WinCue Pro News expects the scroll control to be connected to this port.
