Software setup for Axon requires the following steps described in this section:
1. After powering on the Axon media server, launch the CMA software
2. Check the software version installed and upgrade if necessary.
3. Configure the Axon server DMX source, DMX protocol, and DMX Start Channel.

The Axon Desktop

Upon starting, the CMA monitor will display the Axon Desktop. Buttons on the desktop let you:
• Launch CMA software
• Launch DMX View that displays the current DMX control setting for all the channels on this
media server
• Reboot the system
• Launch the online Manual
NOTE: If you do not see the CMA screen upon powering up the Axon media server,
check that the monitor is connected to the top DVI port and that another output
device is connected to the bottom DVI port. If only one port is connected, it
defaults to media server output and the CMA screen will not be displayed.
