Simple P/P Software

Overview

By installing the BZS-8250 Simple P/P Software in the MVS-8000A/ 8000ASF/8000G/8000GSF Switcher Processor, you can use a separate program/preset function without using the M/E hardware.

Getting access to the software

To use the Simple P/P Software, you are required to enter an install key which validates the software. (If the software has been factory installed, the install key is not required.)

For the method of obtaining an install key, contact your Sony representative. On that occasion, you may be required to submit the unique device ID of the switcher you are using. You can check the unique device ID in the Install menu of the switcher. For details of operating procedures, see Chapter 16, “Installation and Device Setup (Install/Unit Config Menu)” (Volume 2).
