About developing a system description
The SiteConfig system description includes the complete Grass Valley system, which includes K2,
GV STRATUS, and other Grass Valley products. In most cases you install and test your K2 system
first, so when you create your system description you start by adding your K2 systems, then you
add GV STRATUS devices. The following taskflows provide examples:
•
For a system in which all devices are new from Grass Valley with one or more K2 SANs, you
first create a system description for your K2 SAN or SANs, then add GV STRATUS and Playout
devices as appropriate. Refer to the K2 SAN installation and Service Manual for instructions on
creating the system description.
•
For a system in which all devices are new from Grass Valley with one or more standalone K2
Summit systems, you first create a system description and add your standalone K2 Summit
systems, than add other devices as appropriate. Refer to the K2 System Guide for instructions on
creating the system description and adding your standalone K2 Summit systems.
