Documented User Interfaces
The Server Configuration manual deals with all user interfaces used to configure

• On the one hand, the information on navigability and editing commands, specific to the
user interface, is described in clearly separated sections.
• On the other hand, the reference information on and the description of configuration
parameters are described in common sections valid for all user interfaces. A clear
overview shows whether and where the parameters are available in each user
interface.

which describes all server configuration parameters that can be defined for each

1.3. Starting the EVS Server
Introduction
When switching on the EVS server, the first step is the PC boot sequence, followed by
the boot of the video I/O boards, and finally the Multicam Setup application is started.
When Starting the EVS Server for the First Time
Before you first use your EVS server, you need to perform the following tasks:
• Define the configuration lines your EVS server should run.
For more information, see section "Configuration Lines" on page 11.
• Define the configuration parameters for each configuration line you will need.
In this step, you will define, among others, the channel configuration for the selected
configuration line, as well as audio and video parameters for the EVS server.
For more information, see section "Multicam Configuration" on page 42.
