Creating a Keyword File

Creating a keyword file can be done on any computer with a simple text editor. Make sure

the file name does not exceed 8 characters, that all characters in the file name are legal,

and that it has a .KWD extension.

The file can then be imported onto the server using a USB key together with the

Import/Export Keywords Files from the Multicam Setup window (refer to your "Server

Configuration Manual" for more details about this option).

Selecting the Current Keyword File

In the Multicam application, the keyword file can be selected either from the VGA Setup

screen, or from the Operational Setup menu of the Remote Panel using the Keyword file

parameter (p.6.1 F1).

The operator can select any file from all the .KWD files present in the Multicam\KWD

directory. If the machine is connected to other systems on the EVS SDTI network, the

network server will automatically distribute its current keyword file to all other users on the

network.

For each system on the network, the operator can choose to work with the file coming

from the network server (set the Keyword file parameter to “SERVER”), or with a local

file.

Note

In a normal situation, the network server is the machine that has been defined

as such in the EVS Configuration menu.

However, if for any reason the network has been interrupted or the machine

designated as the network server is not available, another machine on the

network (the Master machine with the highest serial number) will automatically

take over this job, including the distribution of the keyword file. Even if the

original network server reconnects, it will not necessarily become the actual

network server again.

The machine that actually assumes the role of network server can easily be

identified from the Connect window on the VGA or from the Network menu on

the EVS Remote Panel, thanks to the “*” displayed next to its name. That

machine only has the ability to distribute its current keyword file to the others on

the SDTI network.
