screen after configuring a Cablecast
SX server.
3 Part II: Software Setup
We will be creating two new Control Module Sets for your Cablecast SX server;
one to control playback, and another to control recording. To create the playback
Control Module Set (CMS, for short):
1. Click the "New" button to create a blank CMS.
2. Give the new CMS a name of "SX Playback"
3. In the Control Module dropdown list, select the "SXPlayerCM" that corre-
sponds to the Control Module Host you created in the previous section.
4. In the Port/IP/LocalPath field, enter the path to the content directory on
the Cablecast SX server. This is the directory where your digital files reside.
Typically, "E: ".
Next, create the recording Control Module Set:
1. Click the "New" button to create a blank CMS.
2. Give the new CMS a name of "SX Encoder"
3. In the Control Module dropdown list, select the "SXEncoderCM" that corre-
sponds to the Control Module Host you created in the previous section.
4. In the Port/IP/LocalPath field, enter the path to the content directory on
the Cablecast SX server. This is the directory where your digital files reside.
Typically, "E: ".
When finished, your Control Module Sets should look something like figure 3.4.
Regardless of which of the Cablecast SX models you purchased, you will need
to create exactly two Control Module Sets per server. You will most likely have
several other Control Module Sets configured for the various other devices being
controlled by Cablecast.
Now that we have created the Control Module Sets for the Cablecast SX server, we
need to define the specific playback and recording devices that are controlled by the
new Control Module Sets.
