LASER SAFETY
The average optical output power does not exceed 0 dBm (1mW) under normal operating
conditions. Unused optical outputs should be covered to prevent direct exposure to the
laser
beam.
Even
though the power of these lasers is low, the beam should be treated with caution
and common sense because it is intense and concentrated. Laser radiation can cause
irreversible and permanent damage of eyesight. Please read the following guidelines
carefully:
•Make sure that a fiber is connected to the board's fiber outputs before power is
applied. If a fiber cable (e.g. patchcord) is already connected to an output, make sure
that the cable's other end is connected, too, before powering up the board.
•Do not look in the end of a fiber to see if light is coming out. The laser wavelengths
being used are totally invisible to the human eye and can cause permanent damage.
Always use optical instrumentation, such as an optical power meter, to verify light
output.

Introduction
Overview
Features
General
The Grass Valley K-Frame family of multi-format digital production switchers provides
powerful, ground-breaking features designed to meet the widest range of requirements for
live studio, mobile, and post-production applications.
The following Video Processors are the heart of the system, providing extensive video
switching and signal processing capabilities:
•Standard
•Compact
•S-series
•V-series
•GV K-Frame X
•GV K-Frame XP
This functionality is controlled using any Control Panel with any Video Processor Frame:
•Kayenne control surface,
•Karrera control surface,
•GV Korona control surface,
•the Soft Panel (KSP option), and/or
•the Menu application running on a PC (Menu on PC).
In addition, the system supports direct control of external devices (DDRs, Servers) and bi-
directional control to and from routing and automation systems.
•Fully digital 10-bit 4:2:2 video switcher including 4K, HDR (HLG and PQ), 1080p, and
2160p support:
•SDI—720p and 1080p level-A
•IP I/O—1080p level-A
•IP I/O—2160p (GV K-Frame XP)
•Optional smart I/O modules provide up/down/cross-conversion when licensed with
SetDef and MatchDef.
•The K-FRM-IO-10GE IP I/O board for the K-Frame video processing engine offers Video-
Over-IP connectivity for all K-Frame Video Production Switchers, using either
uncompressed SMPTE 2022-6 or 4K 1-wire compressed IP.

•4K UHD processed using 2SI (2 Sample Interleave) or SDQS (Square Division Quad
Split).
•Integrated Macro Builder/Editor allows users to edit macros online or offline on a PC
running the menu application.
•Optional DoubleTake™ (split M/E mode) effectively increases the number of M/Es and
adds flexibility to Suites operation while FlexiKey™ programmable clean feed mode
supports separately programmable configurations of keyers from four M/E outputs.
•FlexiKey™ programmable clean feed mode supports separately programmable
configurations of keyers from four M/E outputs.
•Aux bus transitions for dissolves and wipes on aux bus outputs.
•Interfaces with Grass Valley routers supporting Native Protocol.
•Optional Integrated Image Store capable of delivering up to 32 GB and 64GB storage of
Stills (3,000/6,000 images) or “Movies” (a total of 50 seconds or 1 minute 40 seconds) of
1080p video.
•LDK Series and LDX Series camera control with Ethernet tally via Connect Gateway.
•Optional integrated external ClipStore provides multiple channels of video/key pairs
for up to 10+ hours of nonvolatile video/key/audio clip content.
•999 macros with many ways to recall macros from the Control Panel.
•1,000 E-MEM registers with Define E-MEM for fine control in creation and editing of
effects.
•Optional M/E Previewer provides a method to check and monitor any input to an M/E.
•VDCP Ethernet connection for stadium applications.
•Ethernet tally connection for integration with external tally systems.
•Optional RGB color correction on M/E buses and aux bus outputs.
•Source Rules:
•Links keyers to sources.
•Settings for On/Off/Left Alone on every M/E.
•Full look-ahead preview of rules.
•Hot-swappable, front/rear removable modules and power supplies.
•Optional multiple Multiviewer capability with 5 pre-configured layouts (maximum 14
panes per layout) with On-Air and Preview tally.
GV K-Frame XP Compact Frame
•Up to 80 inputs and 40 outputs.
•Up to 6 VPEs which can be used as MEs or Multiviewers.
•Up to 6 M/Es, accessible across four suites — by using DoubleTake this may be
increased to 12 virtual M/Es.
•Every M/E has six keyers with standard keying modes including Chroma Key, two frame
stores per keyer—every keyer can use the pool of floating 3DiDPMs.
•2D-DPMs with perspective on every keyer, so iDPMs can be utilized for more complex
effects.
•Up to 16 iDPMs (Integrated Digital Picture Manipulators), assigned as either floating
iDPMs on any keyer or within an eDPM at user’s discretion.
•An optional built-in multiviewer with six pre-configured layouts (maximum 64
panes per layout) and On-Air/Preview tally which does not use one of the VPEs.
