Hello,

Please anyone have any idea\advice about the Ross VM and Ross playout servers integration with mosart system version 5.X
the model of Ross items are

1- Ross vision mixer Carbonite Ultra 24 Inputs
2- Ross Tria Express playout server 4-ch

-is it compatible or not
-what kind of connection used and protocol in this integration
-also it will be nice to know how many ME's Mosart can control in this setup
-is it a stable setup and easy for support or..

1. You can connect to Ross Carbonite using an IP and port
2. You can connect to Ross Tria Express using RS-422 and using the VDCP protocol (according to https://documentation.rossvideo.com...xpress Duet/Tria-Express-DUET(4609DR-120).pdf)

But check with your Vizrt contact to verify. I have not tried connecting these devices myself.

Ross Carbonite is supported, the Ultra version used to be a problem (you could control MEs but non the PP bus) but support has benn added in version, I think, 5.4 or so.

Any video server will usually work in VDCP, the ex-Abekas Ross Mira should work with AMP as as a Grass Valley K2, too (watch out for video ports name, they are hardcoded and can be tricky). Not sure about Tria, though.
