3 Part II: Software Setup
Now that you've connected your Cablecast server to your AV infrastructure, it's
time to configure the Cablecast software. There are four steps involved in software
configuration:
1. Servers
2. Control Module Sets
3. Devices
4. Cablecast server Settings
In order to begin the software setup, you must log into the Cablecast Web Interface
via FrontDoor. From the desktop of the Cablecast server, open up a web browser,
and navigate to "http://localhost/FrontDoor"
If you are connecting your Cablecast video server to an existing Cablecast
Pro server, you'll need to log into the Cablecast Web Interface that resides on
the Cablecast Pro server. In this configuration, the Cablecast server is being
controlled by the Cablecast Pro server, so all web-based configuration will take
place on the Cablecast Pro server.
By default, FrontDoor ships with an Admin user account with the following
credentials:
Username: Admin
Password: trms
For more information about user accounts and logging into FrontDoor,
see the FrontDoor User Manual.
Once you have logged into Cablecast, you will see the Cablecast Main Menu page,
as shown in figure 3.1 on the following page.

You can perform this configuration over the network as well. Just replace "localhost" with the IP
address of the Cablecast server.
