Using channel suites with multiple K2 systems or storage locations

Channel suites have the capability to operate channels from multiple sources through one Control Point PC. You can move from a channel on one source to a channel on another without disrupting playout.

You can use a channel suite with channels that access media stored on different K2 Summit/Solo system or K2 SANs. The clip bin displayed is the bin where the channel currently active stores its clips.

Take care when loading clips into channels. When the clips for the currently active channel are displayed in the Clips pane, you might not be able to load those clips into a channel that is not currently active, if that channel is on a different source. For example, if you have channels in your channel suite from standalone K2 Summit/Solo system “A” and from standalone K2 Summit/Solo system “B”, you cannot drag and drop a clip from the “A” system to load it into a “B” system channel. To load a clip across storage locations in this manner requires a transfer of the clip from system “A” to system “B.” You must perform that transfer as a separate task, as attempting a cross-system load of a clip does not trigger a transfer.
