Advanced Features
A few notes and instructions about selected features may help you get more value out of
your Ki Pro Rack. The following topics expand on the information presented earlier in this
chapter.
Controlling Multiple
Ki Pros
From the Status screen and the other top five screens of the Menu, you can see at-a-
glance all of the Ki Pro systems that are present on the same local LAN. Their system
names are shown in the Network panel on the right side of the screen. Click a system
name to switch the browser to the Status screen of that Ki Pro system.
NOTE: The Ki Pro you control may be running a different software version so screens may look
different. As a rule, it’s wise to have all your Ki Pro devices running the most current software
and the same version. Also, you must have a properly configured default gateway to see the Ki
Pros.
If the Default Gateway (parameter 50.4) is not configured properly, other Ki Pros will not
be listed. If the display shows “No Ki Pros found” then check the gateway setting.
Also, if the Default Gateway (parameter 50.4) is not configured properly, other Ki Pros will
not be visible here. If it displays “No Ki Pros found” then check the gateway setting.
Gang Recording Multiple Ki Pro units can be used in unison to produce recordings via the Gang Control
feature, beginning with Ki Pro version 2.0 firmware. This feature is only available via the
web UI when Ki Pro units have IP addresses configured under a common network and
subnet mask and are connected via their LAN connections to an ethernet switch or hub
to a host computer. AJA recommends that all Ki Pro units in a gang use the same
firmware version
Example:
You have a Ki Pro "Master" and a Ki Pro "Slave" both attached on a network where their
static IP addresses are 192.168.0.2 and 192.168.0.3 respectively—each with a subnet
mask value of 255.255.255.0. They are connected to a host computer with IP address
192.168.0.1 and subnet mask 255.255.255.0. The host computer uses a web browser, like
Apple's Safari, to access the "Master" Ki Pro by entering 192.168.0.2 in the URL field of the
browser. The Ki Pro "Master" unit web UI should appear.
How to Use Gang
Recording
Navigating to the Transport screen, a "Show Gang Controls"
button appears on the left side of the screen. If "Show Gang
Controls" is clicked, a list of "Available Ki Pros" is presented. If
expected Ki Pro units do not appear, click on "Hide Gang View"
then click on "Show Gang View" again to refresh. Ki Pro information can take up to a few
seconds to be displayed. Finally, if Ki Pros are not listed after refreshing, confirm that the
Ki Pros are on the appropriate network, have the appropriate IP address, etc.
