Thank you for purchasing a new MV-831 Integrated Multiviewer module. 
This Quick Setup Guide will help you get the module running as quickly as possible.
An MV-831 module combines a router video input and output module with 
a 48-input multiviewer. One or more MV-831 modules fit into a Sirius 830 router, 
each replacing a Sirius 830 input module and adjacent output module.

1) Fitting an MV-831 into a Sirius 830 Router
Router Power Supplies: Sirius 830 routers have powerful power supplies. In most cases, these are sufficient for powering
MV-831(s). Grass Valley recommends checking your router power supply configuration with Grass Valley support before
fitting MV-831(s) into the router. (For contact details, see https:/www.grassvalley.com/contact/support/)
MV-831: This is a double-width Sirius 830 module, comprising double-width Rear & Front modules. See Figure 1.
Fitting instructions:
1. If SFP modules are supplied separately, fit them to the MV-830-RP rear module.
An MV-831 module occupies a pair of (front and rear) router input/output slots. For example: slot-pairs 1 & 2; or 11 & 12.
Note: Router I/O slot numbering: From the front, numbering is left-to-right; from the rear, numbering is right-to-left:
2. Ensure a vertical ‘slot-pair’of router input/output module slots are available and empty.
Go to the rear of the router:
3. Remove any blanking plate already covering the router rear slots.
4. Fit the MV-830-RP rear module. Secure with four screws.
Go to the front of the router:
5. Open the router front outer door; open the lower router fan door.
6. Insert the MV-831-MB front module. Push the module into the slots
with the module ejector handles. 
Ensure the module is pushed fully into the slots with module ejector handles pushed fully inwards.
7. Close the router’s fan door and front outer door.
Caution: Always keep router doors closed to ensure correct unit ventilation and
operation. Only open a router door for a maximum of 2 minutes.
Booting: After the front module is fitted, the MV-831 begins to boot up.
Booting up lasts for approximately 1 to 2 minutes. During boot-up:
8. A splash screen appears on each active multiviewer head display output. 
Connect a monitor to each. See Figure 3. IP addresses are shown.
9. After booting, each multiviewer head display output shows a default video
wall. See Figure 5 on page 3.
