Upgrading K2 systems
Install software on K2 Dyno Controller
Before you install K2 Dyno Client software you must rst uninstall the current version.
1. Copy the directory that contains the K2 Dyno Client software onto a portable USB drive, such
as a Flash drive.
2. Connect the USB drive to the K2 Dyno Controller and copy the Client directory to the K2 Dyno
Controller desktop.
3. In the Client directory, locate and open the following le:
setup.exe
4. Follow the onscreen instructions, and work through each page.
5. Click
6. Remove the portable USB drive, if it is still connected.
7. Restart using standard Windows procedures.
8. When prompted "...back to K2 Dyno mode...?", click
The K2 Dyno Controller restarts.
Install MPEG-2/AVC-Intra field kit
If you are installing an MPEG-2 or AVC-Intra eld kit upgrade on one or more or your K2
Summit Production Clients or K2 Solo Media Servers, do so now. Follow the procedure in the
Field Kit Upgrade Instructions document that you received with the eld kit.
Make recovery images
After you have upgraded software as instructed in these procedures and veri ed that your system
is working properly, you should always make a recovery image of each of your upgraded
computers. Use a sequence of tasks similar to those you followed for upgrading software so that
as you take systems of ine you manage redundancy, servers, and clients, as appropriate for your
system.
Refer to the Grass Valley product's Service Manual for recovery image procedures.
Deploy control point PC software
Use SiteCon g to upgrade control point software on the K2 control point PC. In most cases, the K2
control point PC is also the SiteCon g control point PC, so you are in effect using SiteCon g to
upgrade software on its own local system.
