Before Installation

Activation of the serial number and eID is required at the startup of a Grass Valley product such as EDIUS or Mync. At the first startup after installation, the activation screens for the serial number and eID will be displayed. The software starts up after successful activation.

Note

  • Activation of eID is not necessary when you use EDIUS Broadcast.

  • Before starting installation, close all other applications including resident software.

  • Installation requires the account authorized for the administrator (such as PC administrator).

  • Applications to be installed and setup files necessary for installation may differ depending on model.

    The setup file for EDIUS Broadcast differs from that for EDIUS Workgroup or EDIUS Pro. Prepare the single-purpose setup file to install EDIUS Broadcast.

  • Make a backup of the customized settings such as keyboard shortcuts and then uninstall EDIUS before installing the latest version.

  • If antivirus software (security software) is running, you may need to stop the software operation.

What is eID?

eID is an online ID function to link the license of Grass Valley products in possession to the user. The license will be more secure and the uniqueness of the license will be established by linking the serial number and eID at the time of first activation of the serial number.

Also, the information of the serial number in possession can be browsed or products can be downloaded on the membership website “eID Web” that can be logged in with eID.
