Using Multiple AJA Products
More than one AJA product can be installed and available to your host computer.
Using the AJA Control Panel application, you can choose which installed product
an application uses for input/output. In the upper left corner of the AJA Control
Panel application, you will see a board name, such as KONA X and the pane
heading will read "AJA Control Panel" if you have more than one product and the
associated drivers installed (if only one product is installed, you'll see no product
or pulldown and the product name will appear in the header). To "target" a
specific installed product for use, click on the text in the upper left hand side of
the UI and select from the list of available products that appear in the pulldown.

When you launch an editing application, or AJA Control Room, the application
will use the product that is currently selected in the AJA Control Panel for its
input/output. When an application is running, you can change the "targeted"
product selection using the Control Panel pulldown menu. The running
application will retain its connection to the product. If you change the "targeted"
product and launch a different application, that application will use the new
product for its input/ output, while the first application you launched will
continue to use the other AJA product.
