4. Assign licenses according to the following description:
• Licenses : Settings to assign licenses to user groups. When you select a license and click
Assign , you can use standard Windows operating system processes to assign a group to the
license. This can be either Workgroup or Domain, as appropriate for your site's user accounts.
When you first assign a license to a group, all users in the group are assigned all of that
license's roles. These are floating license so you may over-assign. If you over-assign you must
ensure that the number of licenses checked out at any one time does not exceed the number
of licenses available.
5. Assign roles according to the following description:
• Roles : Settings to assign tools and other functionality to users or groups. When you expand
a node and select one of its groups or users, you can allow or deny the group or user the use
of that operation. You can also remove the group or user from the node. If a tool is not assigned
to a user, when that user logs into the GV STRATUS application, the tool does not appear in
the GV STRATUS application. If a new version of GV STRATUS software adds a role to a
license, you must assign it to users. It is not assigned by default to all users with that license.
6. Click Apply to save your current settings, or click Revert to return to the last saved settings.

Configure optional GV STRATUS Control Panel settings
All systems require GV STRATUS Control Panel settings, as appropriate for the site's unique
workflow and GV STRATUS licenses.
If you received your system pre-configured from Grass Valley, your site's settings are already
configured, so the system should not need any additional settings. Otherwise, refer to topics about
Control Panel settings and configure as needed.
Control Panel settings are categorized as follows:
• Required settings — These are settings that must be configured for all GV STRATUS systems,
regardless of the site's unique workflow and GV STRATUS license requirements.
• Optional settings — These are settings that might or might not be necessary, depending on the
site's unique workflow and GV STRATUS license requirements.
