Configuring 4K Channels on the K2 Summit system

This feature is part of the ChannelFlex Suite.

The following licenses must be installed:
  • K2-APPCENTER-ELITE license
  • K2-XDP-2HDL
  • K2-XDP2-AVC-2CH
  • K2-XDP2-3G-2CH (1080p). If using DynoZoom, two licenses are required to support two play and two record channels.
  • K2-XDP2-UHDTV1 (4K). If using DynoZoom, two licenses are required to support two play and two record channels.
Note: On a K2 Summit system that supports DynoZoom, the DynoZoom board in the K2 Summit system and the DynoZoom Frame must be connected via PCIe and the DynoZoom Frame must be powered on before the K2 Summit system is powered on.
  1. Open Configuration Manager and click Channel.
  2. Select C1.

  3. For Type, select 4K Recorder (Top). Only those settings supported by a 4K Recorder channel are displayed.
    Note: If you have the AppCenter Elite license yet the 4K Recorder option does not appear, it means you do not have the 1080p license and the 4K license, which are also required.
    When you set C1 to 4K Recorder (Top), C2 is automatically set to 4K Recorder (Bottom). No settings are available for configuration on C2, because they are automatically configured, dependent on C1 settings.
  4. In the Proxy Setup setting, set Live network streaming to No.
  5. If desired, assign a name to the channel.
  6. To set the 4K player, select C3.
  7. For Type, select 4K Player (Top). Only those settings supported by a 4K Player channel are displayed. When you set C3 to 4K Player (Top), C4 is automatically set to 4K Player (Bottom). No settings are available for configuration on C4, because they are automatically configured, dependent on C3 settings.
  8. If desired, assign a name to the channel.
  9. In the Proxy Setup setting, set Live network streaming to Yes.

    The channel generates low-latency streaming media, which can be displayed on a K2 Dyno Replay Controller.

    Set this on the Program channel only. Multiple channels generating low-latency streaming media can overload network bandwidth.

  10. Set Stream bitrate to the lowest setting appropriate for your required image quality.

    High bitrate streaming media can overload network bandwidth.

  11. If operating with DynoZoom, in Video Output settings, for Pan+Zoom, select On.

    Set this on the Program channel only. If set on multiple channels, it takes effect on the channel with the lowest channel number only.

  12. Click Save and OK to close.
