This AJA OG-FiDO-12G-Series manual addresses only those essential aspects of
the DashBoard Control System needed to control the OG-FiDO-12G-Series cards.
Requirements
The DashBoard Control System requires the following components:
• openGear frame with a Frame Controller card
• Ethernet connection between the controlling computer and the openGear
frame
NOTE: The openGear frame ships from AJA with the MFC-8322-S Frame Controller card
DashBoard automatically discovers openGear and DashBoard Connect devices,
such as openGear frames and cards that are present and accessible on your
network.
Configuration Settings Stored in OG Card
Configuration settings made through DashBoard are stored in the
OG-FiDO-12G-Series units through subsequent power cycles.
Control Interface Basic Components
The basic components of the DashBoard Control System user interface consist of
the basic tree view of frames and cards, the card information and status panel,
and the parameter controls panel. These elements are shown below.
OG-FiDO-12G-Series openGear Card v3.2.1
