Aurora Browse Installation and Configuration Guide

September 22, 2006

Chapter 3 Configuring the system

Before starting this configuration stage you should have a working Aurora Edit/K2
system that uses at least one SmartBin Encoder. In this role, the SmartBin Encoder is
not yet being used as a Aurora Browse machine. Rather, it is just used to host the
SmartBins service. Refer to SmartBins Instruction Guide.

For this configuration stage you configure the SmartBin encoder to work together
with the ingest video server, the Media storage and the Proxy NAS. MDI services are
also required, as configured in the MediaFrame stage. Configuration pages and
procedures are the same for HD and SD Smartbin encoders.

The portion of the system configured and tested in this stage is illustrated by the
following diagram.

Refer to

“System diagram - K2 storage” on page 12

for a view of the entire system.

To do the basic configuration and testing of the SmartBin, do the following:

1.

“Configure ASK Location: SmartBin encoder” on page 65

2.

“Configure Media Frame Core ASK: SmartBin encoder” on page 65

3.

“Configure SmartBin Encoder Control” on page 65
