About Our Documentation Deployment Methods
Grass Valley makes its iControl documentation suite available to clients in two different formats, PDF and online (HTML) help, depending on the document in question. All documents are available in PDF format from the iControl Documentation page as well as from the iControl Documentation CD which is included in the purchase of iControl. Additionally, you may gain access to up-to-the-minute latest versions of PDF documents from the Grass Valley Technical Support portal (see "Contact Us", on page 627).
In addition to the PDFs, we make a subset of the documentation suite available as online help (html). Documents that are available in html format are:
iControl User Guide
iRouter User Guide
iControl Solo User Guide
All online help is sourced directly from the Grass Valley Technical Support portal, and so it will always display the latest information. The HTML links visible on the iControl Documentation page and the Help (or ?) buttons/menus available from the Navigator, iRouter, and iC Solo client-side applications all link to the html online help on the portal. When clicking these links, you will need to log in to the portal only once every 24‑hr period using your Grass Valley Support account profile.
