Installation of EDIUS
This section describes how to install EDIUS to the PC
where Grass Valley hardware products mounted and
the procedure to confirm that the driver is installed
successfully after EDIUS is installed.
Installing EDIUS
Mount Grass Valley hardware products to the PC
and then install EDIUS 6. When installing EDIUS, the
drivers are installed at the same time.
For details on the installation procedure, see the
Installation Guide of EDIUS.

Section 2 ― Installation of EDIUS
Confirmation after installation

Confirming resource (Windows 7/Windows Vista)
Confirm whether driver has been normally installed
after restarting when EDIUS installation is finished.

Panel" of "Start" menu.
In Windows Vista, proceed to "System and
Maintenance" from "Control Panel" of "Start" menu.
2 Click "Device Manager".
3 Double-click "Sound, video and game controllers".
4 Confirm the device name.
**Above is one of the screens.

• For RX-E1 MIP/RX-E1
"RX-E1" is displayed for the device name.
• For SHX-E1/SHX-E1 SDI/NHX-E1/NHX-E1 Bay
"HX-E1" is displayed for the device name.

If you find ! or X mark at the top of device name, that

means you failed installing driver.
Try installation again, check competitive resource, or
change board insertion position.
5 Close "Device Manager".
Checking the driver for the main board now finishes.
Confirming the expansion board driver

For SHX-E1/SHX-E2/SHX-E1 SDI/SHX-E2 SDI/NHX-E1/
NHX-E2/NHX-E1 Bay/NHX-E2 Bay, confirm the

Section 3
Configuring Editing Environments
This section describes how to store the information of
the connected devices used for capturing or printing
to tape, and how to configure the devices used while
editing.
Before editing, configure the following editing
environments.
