Overview

KUMO compact SDI routers are small and cost-effective, yet robust and reliable. All KUMO routers support full-broadcast specifications over SD-SDI, HD-SDI, and 3G-SDI. A KUMO-12G router also supports single connector 12G-SDI. Additionally, KUMO routers support SDI related protocols such as 270Mb/s DVB-ASI and Canon 3G-SDI RAW. KUMO routers are re-clocking, non-blocking, and ready for any broadcast, production, or post production environment. Running Embedded Linux, KUMO routers support powerful HTTP control and monitoring. Each KUMO product contains an internal web server that allows immediate installation, configuration, and operation without requiring additional software. It offers a powerful user interface via any standard web browser. KUMO SDI routers are available in seven configurations:

• KUMO 1604 - sixteen SDI inputs and four outputs
• KUMO 1616 - sixteen SDI inputs and sixteen outputs
- KUMO 1616-12G - supports single connector 12G-SDI, sixteen SDI inputs and sixteen outputs
• KUMO 3232 - supports thirty-two SDI inputs and thirty-two outputs
- KUMO 3232-12G - supports single connector 12G-SDI, thirty-two SDI inputs and thirty-two outputs
• KUMO 6464 - sixty-four SDI inputs and sixty-four outputs

- KUMO 6464-12G - supports single connector 12G-SDI, sixty-four SDI inputs and sixty-four outputs

Because of their compact sizes, KUMO SDI routers are ideal for space-sensitive applications such as mobile sports trucks, edit suites, corporate video installations, or live theatrical A/V rigs.

KUMO Features

The KUMO routers offer the following features for ease of use in a broad range of SDI applications and workflows:

• KUMO 1604, 1616, and 3232 support for SD-SDI, HD-SDI, 3G-SD (SMPTE 259M/292M/424M)
• KUMO 1616-12G, 3232-12G, and 6464-12G support for SD-SDI, HD-SDI, 3G-SDI, 6G-SDI and 12G-SDI (SMPTE-259/292/424/2081/2082)
- KUMO v3.0 and above firmware supports dual and quad mode routing, allowing users to group together Sources and Destinations for multiple cable applications like Dual Link, Quad HD, Quad split monitors, and even 8K video.
- KUMO v4.3 and above firmware supports salvos, controlled from the KUMO router Web UI and the KUMO CP2 panel.
• Automatic coax cable equalization and re-clocking
- Supports all embedded VANC and HANC ancillary information, including embedded audio
- Reference input via BNC, passive loop, PAL/NTSC color black or Tri-level sync
- Output switch timing per SMPTE RP 168 when using an external reference
• 10/100/1000 Ethernet LAN
- Embedded Linux OS with internal web server for web browser control
- USB port for use with eMini-Setup for network configuration via USB.
- User authorization to restrict access via web browser
- Optional KUMO CP hardware 32 pushbutton remote control panel via Ethernet
- Optional KUMO CP2 hardware 64 pushbutton remote control panel via Ethernet
- 1RU form factor for KUMO 1604, 1616, and KUMO CP, 2RU for 3232 and KUMO CP2, 4RU for KUMO 6464
- Power loss recovery to the last operational state, both router and control panel
- Redundant power supply (optional), isolated power inputs

NOTE: KUMO routers switch SDI signals in a manner compliant with SMPTE RP 168-2009. Because KUMO routers (or any similar router) switch the SDI stream without de-serializing, the switch point can cause a temporary anomaly in the SDI stream. This can cause downstream equipment, depending on the characteristics of the SDI receiver(s), to react to the switch (for example, a monitor "glitch or roll"). It is also possible that switching anomalies can appear on just one or more outputs in the same group in the Dual and Quad modes and in salvos. This effect occurs regardless of the relative timing of the SDI signals being switched, or any reference input connected to the router.

KUMO Router Connections

Figure 1. KUMO Rear Panel Connections (3232 shown, other models similar)
AJA KUMO 6464 - KUMO Router Connections - 1

text_image Redundant 12 VDC Power Supplies PS1 & PS2 USB Port (Newer KUMOs) Identify LED REF BNCs Ext Ref Video Looping SDI Video Inputs 1-32 (Top Two Rows) RS-422 Serial 9 Pin Female D Connector RJ-45 Ethernet 10/100/1000 LAN Connector Recessed Reset Button SDI Video Outputs 1-32 (Bottom Two Rows)

PS1 & PS2 Power Connectors

Power to the KUMO unit is supplied by an external power supply module that accepts a 110-240VAC, 50/60Hz power input and supplies +12 VDC to KUMO via connector PS1 or PS2. One power supply is provided, and it may be connected to either of the two power connectors. An optional second power supply can provide redundancy to help protect against outages.

NOTE: The KUMO 6464-12G router requires an 84W power supply (KUMO-84W-PWR). All other KUMO routers and control panels can use a 60W power supply (KUMO-PWR).

IMPORTANT: The power connector has a latch, similar to an Ethernet connector. Depress the latch (facing the outside edge of the KUMO device) before disconnecting the power cable from the unit.

Power Loss Recovery

If KUMO experiences a loss of power, when power is restored the router returns to the previous state of all Source to Destination crosspoints, and all configured Source and Destination names are retained. If a KUMO control panel configured with a KUMO router loses power, when power is restored the control panel's configuration is retained, and button tallies will return to their previous states.

RJ-45 Ethernet Connector

The RJ-45 Ethernet connector allows you to connect KUMO to a 10/100/1000 Ethernet LAN using CAT5 cable and access KUMO's built in web server. Multiple configurations are possible, including standalone control, a local LAN, or a WAN. This also allows control over the network using GVG Native Protocol.

Identify LED

The Identify LED lights when you use the web interface to identify the KUMO unit you are controlling.

Reset Button

The Reset button (pinhole) below the LED allows a safeboot reset of the unit as explained in "Safeboot Reset" on page 32.

REF BNC Connector

The REF BNC connector is the input for synchronizing the crosspoint switch timing of KUMO to your house video signals. Apply an analog NTSC, PAL, or Tri-level sync signal to this input. Be sure to terminate the second BNC with a 75 Ohm terminator, or if you loop to other equipment terminate the last connected device.

When reference is present, KUMO will switch at the SMPTE RP 168 designated switch point with respect to the reference input. If no reference is present, the KUMO will switch based on its internal clock.

Video Inputs and Outputs

Depending on your KUMO model, up to 64 SDI video inputs and outputs can be connected to the video input and output BNC connectors.

Normal Mode

In Normal mode, each input and output BNC routes an individual signal.

Dual and Quad Modes

In Dual mode, inputs and outputs use adjacent pairs of BNCs for each routed signal. In Quad mode, four adjacent BNCs are used for each routed signal. See "Mode Selection" on page 24.

RS-422 Connector

KUMO routers include a RS-422 female DB-9 connector for making serial connections to other equipment. This control connection enables interoperability with other devices, including those that use GVG Native Protocol. See "RS-422 Control Specifications (Routers)" on page 62 for more information.

Older Model RS-422 Adapter

Older KUMO 1604, 1616, and 3232 routers (serial numbers ending in -R0) needed an RS-422 adapter for proper serial control operation (Figure 2). This adapter was shipped with those older model routers. Be aware of this fact if your facility has a mixture of older and newer KUMO routers that use RS-422 control.

NOTE: KUMO routers with serial numbers ending in -R1 or higher do NOT require the adapter, and KUMO 6464 models do NOT require the adapter.

Figure 2. RS-422 Adapter
AJA KUMO 6464 - Older Model RS-422 Adapter - 1

text_image Female Male

Similar to the KUMO router, KUMO CP has an RJ-45 Ethernet connector and power supply connectors, but has no BNC connectors and no RS-422 port.

KUMO Control and Monitoring

The KUMO router user-interface provides powerful remote setup, control, and monitoring with:

  • Zero-configuration Bonjour Protocol and support for UPnP networking protocols
  • Remote web browser control interface via Ethernet
  • Optional KUMO CP (32 button) and KUMO CP2 (64 button) hardware control panels, each unit able to control up to four KUMO routers

NOTE: The 32 button KUMO CP hardware Control Panel can be used with a KUMO 6464 router operating in Normal mode, but can only control the first 32 Sources and Destinations. The KUMO CP can be used to fully control a KUMO 6464 that is operating in Dual or Quad mode. Control of the KUMO 6464 router in all modes is available via the KUMO CP2 64 button hardware panel, web browser, Ethernet control, and RS-422.

- GVG Native Protocol built-in to allow serial or LAN interconnection (one RS-422 or up to 32 Ethernet) and interoperability with other equipment. Specifically, KUMO can be controlled by the SMS 7000 portion of the GVG Native Protocol. For details, refer to: "GVG Native Protocol Support" on page 61.

Default Network Settings

KUMO routers and control panels ship with DHCP enabled, making system operation possible simply by connecting the KUMO device's Ethernet cabling. In addition, temporary default static IP addresses can be activated for initial KUMO system configuration. See "KUMO Temporary Static IP Address" on page 14.

Overview

KUMO SDI routers are easy to set up and use. All of the steps for KUMO installation and configuration are documented in this chapter, summarized as follows:

  1. Install the chassis in an appropriate rack. If you are mounting multiple KUMO units, try to place them visually in the same area so if you communicate with them via a network attached computer, you can use the KUMO's Identify feature to flash the corresponding LED of the unit you're communicating with. Ensure you have an Ethernet cable routed to where the KUMO will be placed.
  2. Assemble the Ethernet network connections to a closed network or LAN using Cat 5 Ethernet cable and any required switches and hubs.
  3. Connect the KUMO to power, connecting the power cord to mains AC.
  4. If necessary, configure device network settings for operation in your facility.
  5. Cable the system SDI video Source and Destination equipment and reference signals.
  6. If operating with Dual Link or Quad Link signals, select the appropriate KUMO operating mode.

AJA KUMO 6464 - Overview - 2

Caution! To meet safety regulations for leakage current when using redundant power supplies, connect the KUMO dual power supplies to separate branch circuits

What's In The Box?

When you unpack your AJA KUMO SDI device, you'll find the following components:

• KUMO SDI router or KUMO control panel
- USB adapter cable
• AC adapter and AC power cord

Please save all packaging for shipping KUMO should you wish to do so when moving or sending it in for service.

KUMO Chassis Installation

Space Requirements

When planning equipment locations and mounting methods, take into account the size of the chassis. KUMO devices are designed for EIA 19" equipment rack mounting. See "Appendix A Specifications" for exact dimensions of each router model.

Plan adequate space for cable routing from the back of the router chassis. Ensure that SDI video cable connectors will not be stressed and that cables are not bent or crimped in the process.

Cooling Requirements

When rack mounting or stacking multiple KUMO chassis, ensure there is adequate airspace for cooling around the KUMO units. Note the location of cooling vents on all equipment next to the KUMO and ensure none are obstructed.

Power Requirements

  • Input Voltage: 110-240VAC, 50/60Hz
  • 60W or 84W AC adapter provided
  • Optional redundant power supply

AJA KUMO 6464 - Power Requirements - 1

Caution! KUMO is designed to take advantage of its chassis to aid in cooling. It is common and expected for the densely populated chassis to have a warm front panel in normal, active operating conditions.

AJA KUMO 6464 - Power Requirements - 2

Warning! Do not open the chassis. There are no user-serviceable parts inside. Opening the chassis will void the warranty unless performed by an AJA service center or licensed facility. Remove the brick power supply AC line cord(s) from mains power when moving the unit

Physical Equipment Setup

  1. Connect power supplies (1 or 2 for redundancy) to KUMO routers and control panels.
    NOTE: The KUMO 6464-12G router requires an 84W power supply (KUMO-84W-PWR). All other KUMO routers and control panels can use a 60W power supply (KUMO-PWR).
  2. Connect Source and Destination SDI equipment (this step can be deferred).
  3. Connect network:

  4. Direct Connection: connect a KUMO router to a KUMO CP (if used), or to a Mac or PC, via an Ethernet Cable.
    • LAN Connection: connect a KUMO router (and a KUMO CP if used) to a hub or switch and connect a PC or Mac to the same LAN via a hub or switch.

NOTE: KUMO devices are compatible with both Cat 5 straight-through and cross-over Ethernet cables—they automatically detect whichever is used.

  1. Proceed to your desired network configuration method using one of the procedures presented later in the chapter.

Quick Start Configuration

Default Auto Configure KUMO Router and Control Panel

If you purchased a KUMO control panel along with a KUMO router, the easiest way to get your system operating is to simply direct connect them with a single Ethernet cable and power up both units.

KUMO devices are compatible with both Cat 5 straight-through and cross-over Ethernet cables. The KUMO CP will use an Auto Configure function to set itself up to operate with the KUMO router it is directly connected to. The KUMO CP panel buttons will light and, if SDI BNC connections have been made, you will be able to route Sources to Destinations.

Figure 3. KUMO Router Direct Connection to KUMO CP
AJA KUMO 6464 - Default Auto Configure KUMO Router and Control Panel - 1

text_image KUMO CP Direct Cat 5 Ethernet Cable Connection KUMO Router KUMO 3232 AVA

The KUMO CP Auto Configure assigns Router Select Button 1 to the attached router.

NOTE: A KUMO CP that has had its network settings configured previously will not use automatic configuration to find a directly connected KUMO router. However, you can force the KUMO CP to enter into Auto Configuration Mode by pressing the RTR 1 and SHIFT DEST buttons simultaneously for four seconds.

DHCP on an Existing Network

NOTE: KUMO devices are shipped from the factory with DHCP configured by default.

An easy way to get your new KUMO routers configured on your network is to simply connect them to an existing network with a DHCP server. When the KUMO devices reset during power up, each KUMO will see the DHCP server and automatically be given compatible IP network settings. If auto discovery is configured on a computer on that network, that computer will be able to find and control the KUMO router via a web browser (see below).

Computer Auto Discovery

Computers can support network auto discovery, which makes the network configuration process easy. Two methods of connecting using this technique are described below.

Older macOS Configuration with Safari Browser Using Bonjour

MacOS Safari browser versions 10 and earlier have Bonjour functionality built-in, which can be used to auto-detect and connect to an Ethernet device like a KUMO Router.

NOTE: Apple removed Bonjour support from Safari versions 11 and higher.

To find a KUMO router using Bonjour on a supported version of Safari:

  1. Ensure the KUMO to be controlled is powered up and connected via Ethernet (directly to a Mac or via LAN).
  2. Start Safari browser on a Mac.
  3. Click on the top menu Bookmark->Bonjour->Webpages drop-down and click on a listed AJA KUMO router or control panel.

NOTE: If Bonjour is not visible in the Bookmark drop-down, go to Safari->Preferences->Advanced and check the "Include Bonjour in the Bookmarks menu" checkbox.

  1. Safari will display the KUMO web user-interface, which you can use to control and configure that KUMO device.

Windows PC Configuration using UPnP

If your Windows PC supports UPnP protocols (most do) and UPnP network discovery service is enabled (refer to your Microsoft Windows documentation), you can control KUMO routers by simply selecting one from a device list:

  1. Ensure the KUMO to be controlled is powered up and connected via Ethernet (directly to the PC or via LAN).
  2. Use your Windows Control Panel or File Explorer to go to Computer->Network.
  3. Look at the list under "Other Devices"—double click a KUMO's name to launch your Windows PC's default browser.
  4. The browser will display the KUMO web user-interface, which you can use to control and configure that KUMO device.

Network Configuration via USB

KUMO devices equipped with USB ports can be configured for network operation using AJA's eMini-Setup utility program. The general procedure is:

  1. Acquire eMini-Setup from the AJA website and install the eMini-Setup application onto a computer.
  2. Connect the KUMO USB port to that computer's USB port with the supplied USB cable.
  3. Launch the eMini-Setup application.
  4. Go to the Network tab where the IP address settings are displayed. You can use the existing DHCP assigned IP address, or it can be changed manually.

See "Chapter 5 eMini-Setup" on page 41 for additional information.

KUMO Temporary Static IP Address

KUMO devices also offer a hardware initiated factory default static IP address, allowing a direct and fail-safe way to connect via a computer connected to KUMO either directly or via a LAN connection. The computer you use will need to be set to a static IP address that is compatible with the KUMO temporary IP address. Once connected, the KUMO device's network settings can be reconfigured to work with your facility network. The KUMO default static IP address is temporary and is intended only to allow an initial connection.

NOTE: All KUMO routers and control panels have the same temporary static IP address, so more than one device set to this default cannot reside on the same network simultaneously. Work with only one device at a time.

Table 1. KUMO Device Temporary Static IP Address Values

Device IP address Subnet Mask
KUMO Router and KUMO CP 192.168.101.1 255.255.255.0

NOTE: The default static address is temporary and will be disabled the next time KUMO restarts. Any changes in the Network configuration will be saved upon restart.

To set KUMO to its temporary static IP address:

  1. Power up the KUMO device and wait for it to boot normally.
  2. Set the KUMO device to its static IP address:
  3. For a KUMO router, insert a straightened paper clip or similar device into the reset slot on the rear and hold for five seconds and then release. The KUMO

will restart with the default IP. When the KUMO router default IP is set the Identify LED will blink.

- For a KUMO CP/CP2, press and hold the SHIFT SRC and SHIFT DEST buttons on the panel for five seconds and then release. When the KUMO CP default IP is set, the Source and Destination buttons will flash alternately.

NOTE: If a KUMO webpage on a computer is open when that KUMO device is reset, the information displayed on the webpage is not updated automatically.

IMPORTANT: Be sure to record your computer's existing TCP/IP settings before the next step so that you can return the computer to normal operation after this procedure.

  1. Configure your computer to 192.168.101.X. Do not use .1 at the end of the address to avoid duplicate IP addresses.
  2. Start a web browser and enter 192.168.101.1 as the web address. This is the KUMO temporary static IP address.
  3. Once you've connected using the static IP, you can then enter a desired network configuration using the KUMO device's NETWORK tab.

Network Configuration In Depth

A LAN is a shared network that includes other Ethernet devices all attached via a hub or digital switch. LANs may be divided into zones separated by software or hardware routers. Routers may also be used to connect the LAN to an outside wide area network (WAN) such as the Internet. Devices on a LAN have IP addresses which may be fixed and permanent, or dynamically assigned by the network (DHCP with DNS server).

NOTE: Once connected and properly configured, the KUMO router can then be controlled by a web browser or one or more KUMO CP control panels. KUMO and KUMO CP are equipped with zeroconf (Bonjour) and support UPnP networking protocols but initially start up as DHCP active devices. If you are operating on a DHCP server, KUMO will take an assigned IP address and appear on the network.

AJA KUMO 6464 - Network Configuration In Depth - 1

Caution! When attaching KUMO to a standard static IP LAN, you must configure KUMO components with a new, unique IP address. You should first talk to your network administrator and find out how it should be connected (TCP/IP Static IP or DHCP). Your IT department will be able to supply the information you need to install KUMO on a LAN.

KUMO uses TCP/IP network communications and Ethernet connections (a 10/100/1000 Ethernet port) for crosspoint control, status monitoring, and software updates. KUMO devices have an internal HTTP web server that works with a standard web browser on a Mac or PC. An Ethernet cable can also be used to connect an optional KUMO CP (control panel) directly to a KUMO router for operation without a computer.

KUMO devices are compatible with both Cat 5 straight-through and cross-over Ethernet cables—they automatically detect whichever is used.

KUMO's internal HTTP networking software supports three levels of network control:

  • Closed KUMO network – uses Default Auto Configure (KUMO CP), or Bonjour (Mac or PC).
  • Auto Configured LAN – employs a Bonjour or UPnP enabled computer/browser to automatically connect devices and allows KUMO web browser User Interface (UI).
  • Standard TCP/IP network – employs DHCP or Static IP addressing and allows the KUMO web-based UI and an unlimited number of KUMO routers and up to 32 KUMO CP control points.

Once connected, you can use a web browser to:

  • Configure any TCP/IP settings
  • Select and name KUMO routers and control panels
  • Assign a KUMO panel to be able to control specific KUMO routers
    • Name Sources and Destinations
    • Make Source to Destination assignments (signal routing)
  • Change router operating mode (Normal, Dual Mode, Quad Mode)
  • Set a variety of operational and monitoring options

LAN Connection Using a Hub or Switch

In a LAN connection, connect one or more KUMO routers to your LAN or closed network using Cat 5 Ethernet cable and an Ethernet hub or switch; then power up the equipment.

Setup and Control Methods

Regardless of direct connection or LAN connection, KUMOs are controlled over a network by connecting to KUMO's internal web server with a standard web browser on a Mac or PC. To do this you first need to establish a network connection between the computer and the KUMO to be controlled. There are various methods supported for doing this depending on the operating system and/or web browser being used.

When using KUMO in a DHCP or Static IP addressed network, it is best to select and maintain a consistent network scheme. If you use a mix of DHCP and Static IP addresses, inconsistent performance can result. The most stable operation is achieved when all IP addressing is either DHCP or Static.

Setup and Control from a Browser on macOS

Safari Browser: Type in KUMO Static IP Address

KUMO offers a factory default static IP address. The default static IP address is temporary and is intended only to allow an initial connection. Once you've connected using the static IP, you can then change that KUMO's IP address to one compatible with your network, using KUMO's NETWORK tab.

NOTE: The default static address is temporary and will be disabled the next time KUMO restarts. Any changes in the Network configuration will be saved upon restart.

  1. Set the KUMO to its factory default IP address. See "KUMO Temporary Static IP Address" on page 14 for this procedure.

  2. Configure your computer to communicate on the 192.168.101.X subnet as shown below:

IMPORTANT: First record existing TCP/IP settings so that you can return your computer to normal operation after this procedure.

A. Go to your System Preferences>Network and select Ethernet and Configure: Manually.

C. Click Apply.

  1. Ensure the KUMO device to be controlled is connected to the Mac via Ethernet (directly or via LAN).

  2. Start Safari and enter 192.168.101.1 as the web address. This is the KUMO temporary static IP address.

  3. Once you've connected to KUMO's web interface, reconfigure KUMO's network parameters as desired using the KUMO device's NETWORK tab.
  4. Restore your computer to its normal network settings using this procedure and the IP addresses you recorded earlier.

Setup and Control from a Browser on Windows

The easiest methods of setting up a controlling a KUMO device from a PC running Windows are:

  • Setup and Control from a Browser on Windows using UPnP
  • Setup and Control from a Browser on Windows using a Static IP Address

Windows: Using UPnP (Universal Plug and Play)

This method was covered earlier in this chapter.

See "Windows PC Configuration using UPnP" on page 14.

Windows Browser: Type in KUMO Static IP Address

KUMO offers a factory default static IP address. The default static IP address is temporary and is intended only to allow an initial connection. Once you've connected using the static IP, you can then enter a desired network configuration using KUMO's NETWORK tab.

NOTE: The default static address is temporary and will be disabled the next time KUMO restarts. Any changes in the Network configuration will be saved upon restart.

  1. Set the KUMO to its factory default IP address, using the rear Reset button (KUMO Router) or SHIFT Buttons (KUMO CP). See "KUMO Temporary Static IP Address" on page 14 for this procedure.
  2. Configure your computer's IP address and Subnet Mask using the standard Windows IP configuration steps appropriate for your installed Windows version.

IMPORTANT: Record your computer's existing TCP/IP settings. You will later need to restore these original settings so that you can return your computer to normal operation after this procedure.

  • IP Address: 192.168.101.X (do not use .1 in the last octet)
  • Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0

  • Connect the Windows PC to KUMO's RJ-45 port (either direct or through your LAN)

  • Point your web browser to 192.168.101.1 as the web address. This is the KUMO temporary static IP address.

  • Once you've connected to KUMO's web interface, reconfigure KUMO's network parameters as desired using the KUMO device's NETWORK tab.

  • Restore your computer to its normal network settings using this procedure and the IP addresses you recorded earlier.

The KUMO CP can be used to fully control a KUMO 6464 that is operating in Dual or Quad mode. Control of the KUMO 6464 router in all modes is available via the KUMO CP2 64 button hardware panel, web browser, Ethernet control, and RS-422.

If the KUMO will be attached to a WAN, talk to your IT administrator and obtain the details on how to configure the KUMO (DHCP or static IP).

TCP/IP Network Connection

KUMO supports traditional TCP/IP networking through DHCP or Static IP addressing.

IMPORTANT: When using KUMO in a DHCP or Static IP addressed network, it is best to select and maintain a consistent network scheme. If a mixture of DHCP and Static IP addresses are used, inconsistent performance can result. The most stable operation is achieved when all IP addressing is either DHCP or Static.

Default DHCP Configuration

DHCP is the default initial configuration routine for KUMO devices. If you start up on a DHCP network, KUMO will accept assigned IP addresses. After DHCP initialization, use your zeroconf browser to view the KUMO web page and view the assigned IP address.

Static IP Configuration

If your IT administrator prefers an assigned IP address that is fixed (called a "Static IP"), you will need to set network parameters using the KUMO UI NETWORK Screen where you will enter:

• IP address type—Static IP
- a unique IP address
- the Netmask and Default Gateway IP address (your LAN's router that does the network's routing)

You will need to press the Enter key on the keyboard for every field changed. Press the Update Network Settings button when all fields are complete.

Hide

You can hide selected Destinations from display on the HOME Screen by activating the Hide box. This setting applies only to the local browser.

Lock

If you want to lock any of the Destinations from Source changes, activate the Lock box for the desired Destination.

NOTE: This lock is a universal lock for all KUMO devices controlling the selected Destination. It is tallied throughout the network and can be released from other KUMO control devices on the network.

Long Cable (KUMO 6464-12G model only)

The KUMO 6464-12G router includes an additional SDI output setting to increase interoperability with downstream equipment when short output cables are used. The setting is available for each individual output. The default setting is L (for long cable) and can be set to S (for short cable), which may improve performance when the output cable is 10m or less of Belden 1694A or equivalent.

NOTE: Changing the router configuration operating mode (Normal, Dual, or Quad) resets the KUMO 6464-12G Long Cable settings. These settings will need to be manually re-configured to match the actual cable lengths used by each output port in the new operating mode.

Reset to Factory Defaults

The "Reset to Factory Defaults" button can be used to return all router user settings to factory defaults.

Salvos Configuration

The Salvos screen lets you configure up to eight salvos for the selected KUMO router. Each salvo can route any number of Sources to any number of Destinations, including the same Source to multiple Destinations. Crosspoints not included in a salvo remain unchanged.

When you first select the Salvo screen the eight Salvo buttons are shown. Buttons with currently configured salvos are colored green.

Enable Exit Page Warning

The "Enable Exit Page Warning" checkbox enables or disables the display of a warning message if you leave the Salvo configuration screen without saving.

It can take a few minutes for your KUMO to appear in Mac's Bonjour or Windows->Network->Other Devices. To access the device with a known IP, press and hold the safeboot button and when the identify LED lights, the device will have a temporary IP address of 192.168.101.1 and a netmask of 255.255.255.0 allowing you to connect to it and fix any network configuration errors.

IMPORTANT: The KUMO Web UI does not automatically update its network data if something other than that specific browser window is used to change that KUMO's configuration.

Web Browser Refresh

The following actions can result in the display of inaccurate data in the web browser:

• Using the factory reset button.
- Using eMini-Setup to change configuration over USB.
- Changing configuration from another browser, or even the same browser in a different tab.

To workaround this problem, manually refresh the browser window to display the latest network data.

User Authentication

This parameter enables or disables an authentication login requirement. By default this parameter is set to Disabled.

When you select Login as the User Authentication choice, you then must set and confirm a password. To save these settings select the Enable Authentication button. You can change the password using the NETWORK Screen.

When User Authentication is set to Login, you are directed to the login screen before you can access KUMO over the network. You are required to log in with a password before you can access any other KUMO screens.

NOTE: If authentication is used, it provides only a minimum security safeguard against unauthorized use. The authentication mechanism is simple and does not provide robust security.

Password Reset

You can use a password reset procedure to set the KUMO device's password back to the default value, allowing network access to the device if the password should become lost or mistakenly changed. The default password is "password".

After resetting the password, the current KUMO authentication setting itself is not changed. If authorization is enabled, after resetting the password you will need to enter "password" (the default) to gain network access.

KUMO Router Password Reset

  1. For a KUMO router, insert a straightened paper clip or similar device into the reset slot on the rear, hold in for more than eight seconds and then release.

  2. The Identify LED will blink, then light steadily, and then go out, indicating the password has been reset to default.

KUMO Control Panel Password Reset

  1. For a KUMO CP/CP2, press and hold the two SHIFT buttons on the panel for more than eight seconds and then release.
  2. The Panel Lock button will be colored red and then go out, indicating the password has been reset to default.

UPnP Host

UPnP Host enables the KUMO to be discovered by a Windows network.

Selecting Enable (default) allows KUMO to be discovered by a Windows network. Selecting Disable prevents Windows network discovery of the KUMO.

Firmware Updating

AJA is constantly upgrading its product software so it is a good idea to check the AJA website often for updates and to assure optimum system performance. Go to the AJA KUMO Update web page by clicking the link at the bottom of the FIRMWARE Screen, or using the following link:

To get the firmware, point your browser to: KUMO 1616 Support Page FPGA Version: 5 Serial Number: 1RT202724

Unpack the Software

Download the latest version of KUMO firmware and use the FIRMWARE Screen to upload it to your KUMO router. KUMO software update files are "ZIP" files, which you can open with a number of standard and third party uncompressor applications. The software image that you'll install on KUMO is a file with a name similar to:

- kumo_ver_4.0.0.3-1475859474.bin

NOTE: Depending on your PC or Mac operating system settings, the ".bin" extension may not be visible to you in a file directory.

Uploading and Installing Firmware to KUMO

Uploading and installing the software update only requires a PC or Mac that can "see" the KUMO via its browser. Follow this procedure to install the software:

  1. Launch a browser on your PC or Mac and connect to the KUMO product that requires a firmware update.
  2. Once the KUMO web page is visible, click on the FIRMWARE tab.
  3. Then click on the Choose File button to locate the KUMO firmware image file on your PC or Mac.

Once these steps are complete, the KUMO will be running the software you just uploaded. The configuration of the KUMO prior to the upgrade is preserved.

Verify the new software is running by bringing up the KUMO web page again. Check the Firmware page for the current version number. The restart and refresh cycle may take a couple of minutes. If the firmware version does not display the new version, perform the update steps again.

NOTE: On some browsers, the Retry page may appear even though the software upgrade was successful. If this occurs, before clicking on retry, refresh the web page and check the version number. If the new version number appears at the top of the page, the software upgrade was successful. If the old version appears, click Retry.

If there is a power outage or glitch during the software download, the KUMO will boot the older software version and the upgrade process can then be re-started by the user. This happens because the KUMO has been designed with a safety feature where an internal "safe" copy of the previous software is retained in the event the updating process fails.

Safeboot Reset

If your KUMO firmware becomes corrupted to the point of freezing the device, you can reset to a safeboot firmware image. The existing KUMO network configuration (DHCP or Static IP) is retained during safeboot. When safeboot is active you can then re-install the latest firmware via the web interface to regain full system operation.

IMPORTANT: A KUMO device running safeboot firmware is not operational other than being accessible on a network so compatible firmware can be installed.

To perform a KUMO safeboot:

  1. Power down the KUMO device.
  2. Engage the reset function:

  3. For a KUMO router, insert a straightened paper clip or similar device into the reset slot on the rear.

  4. For a KUMO CP, press and hold both the SHIFT SRC and SHIFT DEST buttons on the panel.

  5. Apply power to the device, wait at least 5 seconds and then release the reset function.

Overview

The KUMO hardware panels are Destination-oriented control panels allowing selection of Sources and Destinations on each of up to four KUMO routers. A KUMO control panel will connect to a single KUMO router automatically without computer/browser interface. For connection to up to four routers on a single CP, use the KUMO browser interface to assign the router select buttons to any four KUMO routers on your network.

Two KUMO hardware panels are available, the KUMO CP able to control up to 32 Sources and Destinations, and the KUMO CP2, able to control up to 64.

NOTE: The 32 button KUMO CP hardware Control Panel can be used with a KUMO 6464 router operating in Normal mode, but can only control the first 32 Sources and Destinations. The KUMO CP can be used to fully control a KUMO 6464 that is operating in Dual or Quad mode. Control of the KUMO 6464 router in all modes is available via the KUMO CP2 64 button hardware panel, web browser, Ethernet control, and RS-422.

  1. Select the router you wish to control with a Router delegation button.
  2. Press the desired Destination button. It will illuminate.
  3. Press the desired Source button. That Source will be routed to that Destination and the Source button will illuminate.

NOTE: Sources for locked Destinations cannot be changed.

Taking a Salvo

Up to eight salvos can be configured on a KUMO router. Each salvo can route any number of Sources to any number of Destinations, including the same Source to multiple Destinations. Crosspoints not included in a salvo remain unchanged. See "Salvos Configuration" on page 26 to learn how to configure salvos.

Performing a salvo is a two stage process. First you arm the salvo, and then you take the salvo.

  1. Press the desired Salvo button. The button will blink for five seconds.
  2. Press that blinking Salvo button again to take that salvo.
    After five seconds, the Salvo button will no longer be armed and will stop blinking. To take that salvo you will need to press the Salvo button again to rearm that salvo.

NOTE: Salvos do not change locked Destinations.

Panel Function Button Descriptions

Each KUMO Control Panel provides:

- Panel Lock – prevents Source or Destination changes from this panel.

  • Destination Lock – prevents any Source change for a Destination.
  • Router Delegation Buttons – (RTR 1–RTR 4) enable immediate control of the KUMO assigned to the button.

Panel Lock

When you press the PANEL LOCK button, it lights red and all panel functions for this panel are disabled. All other KUMO devices on the network will function normally.

Destination Lock

Press the DEST LOCK button to prevent any changes to the KUMO Destination you are currently controlling (DEST button high tallied). The lock can be removed from any other KUMO CP or browser interface on the network.

The locked Destination button and DEST LOCK buttons turn red on all panels that are assigned to the KUMO you are controlling. You can select other Destinations and apply the Destination Lock function to each. All locks will tally red. To remove the lock, select the Destination and press DEST LOCK again.

Locked Destinations are reported on the KUMO router's browser HOME Screen with a lock icon.

AJA KUMO 6464 - Destination Lock - 1

text_image DESTINATION 1 Dest 1 2 Dest 2 3 Dest 3 4 Dest 4

Router Delegation Buttons (RTR 1 - 4)

Use the Router delegate buttons to connect to the specific router to be controlled.

You can assign the delegate buttons to any of up to four routers in your system. To assign router/control panel delegation, access the HOME Screen for your KUMO CP.

If network communications between a control panel and router fails, the control panel's delegation button for that router will be colored pink. When communications is restored the delegation button returns to its normal color.

Shift/Reset Buttons

The SHIFT SRC and SHIFT DEST buttons serve multiple functions. They allow you to select shifted Sources and Destinations (17-32 for KUMO CP and 33-64 for KUMO CP2), and they also perform the same reset functions as the reset slot. Resets should be done only by qualified network personnel:

  • Shift: Hold down SHIFT SRC and press a Source button to select a shifted Source, or hold down SHIFT DEST and press a Destination button to select a shifted Destination. When a shift button is not held down, pressing a Source or Destination button selects the unshifted Source or Destination (1-16 for KUMO CP or 1-32 for KUMO CP2).
  • IP Reset: See "KUMO Temporary Static IP Address" on page 14.
  • Password Reset: see "Password Reset" on page 29.
  • Reset to Safeboot Firmware: See "Safeboot Reset" on page 32.

SALVO Buttons (CP2 Only)

The eight Salvo buttons, when configured, can each be used to perform multiple Source to Destination takes using just that one button.

Performing a salvo is a two stage process. First you arm the salvo, and then you take the salvo.

  1. Press the desired Salvo button. The button will blink for five seconds.
  2. Press that blinking Salvo button again to take that salvo.

NOTE: Salvos do not change locked Destinations.

Control Panel Web Browser User Interface

The KUMO CP browser interface provides many of the same Navigation Bar tabs as the router. This section discusses those functions unique to the control panel interface.

HOME Screen

Use the HOME Screen to assign a router to each of the router delegation buttons. Each button has a pulldown menu that lists the active networked KUMOs for assignment and provides an Unassign and Refresh function.

Figure 30. KUMO CP Browser Interface Home Screen
AJA KUMO 6464 - HOME Screen - 1

The assigned router name appears below each button. You can change the selected (currently-controlled) router on the panel by clicking the button on the HOME Screen. The panel's router delegation button will tally appropriately.

CONFIGURATION Screen

Using the CONFIGURATION screen, you can:

  • Adjust the Display Intensity slider – select one of four button illumination levels.
  • Reset "Auto Configure" – resets the Auto Configure function to automatically set up one control panel to one router. This function re-boots the panel to trigger the configuration. Upon reboot, if any other router is found on the network, it will not pair to the panel.
  • Reset to Factory Defaults – resets all control panel settings to factory defaults, including System Name and Network settings.

NOTE: If a KUMO webpage on a computer is open when that KUMO device is reset or had its network configuration changed from another location (even if using a different tab in the same browser), the information displayed on that original webpage will not be updated automatically and so will display stale data.

BUTTONS Screen

The BUTTONS Screen lets you enable or disable the Source, Destination, and Salvo buttons on a KUMO hardware control panel

Disabling Control Panel Buttons

The v4.1 and higher KUMO firmware includes a button disabling feature, useful to uniquely configure the button operation of each KUMO CP/CP2 for specific work areas and specific workflows.

NOTE: This feature is not a router Destination or Source lock. Takes can still be performed on paths with disabled buttons, using the KUMO Web UI or another KUMO control panel.

The current KUMO CP configuration is retained after a power cycle, including any disabled Source or Destination buttons.

NOTE: Performing a KUMO CP factory reset clears the configuration. All Salvo, Source and Destination buttons are enabled after a factory reset.

Procedure

  1. Access the KUMO CP via its internal web page.
  2. Click on the HOME tab and select one of the four routers.
  3. Click on the BUTTONS tab and then click on the Source, Destination, and/or Salvo buttons you wish to disable. Enabled buttons have a green background color and disabled buttons have a gray background color.

Before Operating Please Read These Instructions

AJA KUMO 6464 - Before Operating Please Read These Instructions - 1

Warning! Read and follow all warning notices and instructions marked on the product or included in the documentation.

Warning! Do not use this device near water and clean only with a dry cloth.

Warning! Do not block any ventilation openings. Install in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions.

Warning! Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other apparatus (including amplifiers) that produce heat.

Warning! Unplug this device during lightning storms or when unused for long periods of time.

Warning! Do not open the chassis. There are no user-serviceable parts inside. Opening the chassis will void the warranty unless performed by an AJA service center or licensed facility.

Warning! Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is required when the device has been damaged in any way, such as power-supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen into the device, the device has been exposed to rain or moisture, does not operate normally, or has been dropped.

Warning! Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or grounding-type plug. A polarized plug has two blades with one wider than the other. A grounding type plug has two blades and a third grounding prong. The wide blade or the third prong are provided for your safety. If the provided plug does not fit into your outlet, consult an electrician for replacement of the obsolete outlet.

Warning! Since the Mains plug is used as the disconnection for the device, it must remain readily accessible and operable.

Warning! Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched particularly at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the device.

Warning! Disconnect the external AC power supply line cord(s) from the mains power before moving the unit.

Caution! To meet safety regulations for leakage current when using redundant power supplies, connect the KUMO dual power supplies to separate branch circuits.

Cautionl KUMO is designed to take advantage of its chassis to aid in cooling. It is common and expected for the densely populated 1616 chassis to have a warm front panel in normal, active operating conditions.

Caution! When attaching KUMO to a standard Static IP LAN, you must configure KUMO components with a new, unique IP address. You should first talk to your network administrator and find out how it should be connected (TCP/IP Static IP or DHCP). Your IT department will be able to supply the information you need to install KUMO on a LAN. Methods for assigning Static IP addressing are discussed in the KUMO Installation and Operation manual.
