How to configure the Kaleido-K2 to support different displays?
Some available screens that can be used to display the Kaleido-K2 output require input signals conforming to standards that are not included in the default resolution set of the Kaleido-K2. The Kaleido-K2 will work with these displays once the appropriate resolution definitions are installed. The Kaleido-K2 can work with either its default resolutions, or the display-specific resolutions, but both cannot be installed at the same time.
Note that the nominal resolutions of these displays appear in the pulldown list on the Output Configuration control panel (open it using F11 in KEdit) for the default resolutions), but these will not work due to some specific signal timing issues.
If you have selected the appropriate resolution for your display from the Output Configuration panel and find that it does not work correctly, you should install the resolution files for your display type.
Here are instructions on how to install the display-specific resolutions, and how to re-install the default set shipped with Kaleido-K2:
Install the display-specific resolution files
In order for the Kaleido-K2 to work correctly with the supported displays, you will need to replace some files on the Kaleido itself. Use the mouse and keyboard connected to the Kaleido.
- First quit the Kaleido-K2 application, by pressing <Ctrl> + Q keys.
- Then open Windows explorer, and browse to the folder c:\iControl\Startup\resolution
- In this folder you will find folders for the supported displays, listed by manufacturer's name. Within the Manufacturer folders are folders for the individual display models.
- Copy-Paste all the .krs files that reside in the folder for your display type into the Resolution folder. Doing this will replace the default resolutions with resolutions appropriate for your display.
NOTE - You must COPY - PASTE these files into the Resolution folder, leaving the original files in the Display folder.- DO NOT DRAG-AND-DROP THE FILES, BECAUSE THE ORIGINAL FILES WILL BE LOST THE NEXT TIME YOU OVERWRITE THEM IN THE RESOLUTION FOLDER
- Accept to replace the files, and then restart the Kaleido application.
Revert back to the default resolutions
If you want to reconfigure your Kaleido to support the default resolutions, follow these steps, using the mouse and keyboard connected to the Kaleido:
- First quit the Kaleido-K2 application, by pressing <Ctrl> + Q keys.
- Then open Windows explorer, and browse to the folder c:\iControl\Startup\resolution
- In this folder you will find a folder called Factory.
- Copy-Paste all the .krs files that reside in the Factory folder to the resolution folder.
NOTE - You must COPY - PASTE these files into the Resolution folder, leaving the original files in the Factory folder.- DO NOT DRAG-AND-DROP THE FILES, BECAUSE THE ORIGINAL FILES WILL BE LOST THE NEXT TIME YOU OVERWRITE THEM IN THE RESOLUTION FOLDER
- Doing this will restore the default resolutions. Accept to replace the files, and then restart the Kaleido application.
