3 Operation
3.1 Control Options
The KMV-3901/3911 can be controlled in different ways:
• On the Densité frame, the local control panel and its buttons can be used to navigate menus and adjust
parameter values (see section 3.3).
• Miranda’s iControl system can be used to access the card’s operating parameters from a remote
computer, using a convenient graphical user interface (see section 3.4).
• The loading and management of layouts is handled via a dedicated Java-based application, XEdit,
accessed through a dedicated Ethernet port (see the Kaleido-X User’s Manual).
• A GPI interface allows remote layout selection.
• The output resolution of the card can be controlled automatically through the EDID interface with the
display.
• The Kaleido-RCP2 remote control panel allows you perform operations on the monitor wall, either by
itself or in association with an external keyboard and a mouse. Refer to the Kaleido-RCP2, and
Kaleido-X documentation (available on the DVD that shipped with your system).
3.2 Card-Edge LEDs
3.2.1 Status LED
The Status LED is located on the front card-edge of the KMV-3901/3911, immediately above the Select
button, and is visible through the front access door of the Densité frame. This multi-color LED indicates the
status of the KMV-3901/3911 by color, and by blinking/steady illumination:
LED Meaning
Green Normal
Blinking Orange Booting (or the card is selected for local control)
Red
No Ethernet / SD card error
Blinking red Fan failure / no rear / duplicate IP address
The Status LED always shows the most severe detected error status that it is configured to display (see
section 3.4.5), and in the table above error severity increases from top to bottom, with green representing no
error/disabled, and blinking red the most severe error.
If the Status LED is blinking orange, it means that the card is selected for local control using the Densité
frame’s control panel, or that the card is booting up. See section 3.3 for details.
