Updating the K2 Plus Carrier Board driver
Early shipments of K2 Summit 3G+ systems with disk image 20171019-K2Plus-Win10 exhibit Known Problems with IDs KT-10120 and KT-10240 where the system will not function as expected with a Tri-Level Sync signal connected to the system’s Genlock Reference input. If the system was shipped with the 20171019-K2Plus-Win10 base image or was restored to the 20171019-K2Plus-Win10 base image, this procedure should be followed in order to allow the system to function with Tri-Level Sync. The system will function with Black Burst Sync whether or not the update is performed.
