The Aurora Ingest - Scheduler application is now configured. For more information,

Configuring VTR Controller
Before you can use VTR Ingest with a VTR or VTRs, you need to configure the VTR
Controller application. VTR Controller can be installed on the same machine as the
VTR Ingest application, but this is not required.
To configure VTR Controller, follow these steps:
1. From the Windows Start menu, select Program | Aurora 6.1 | Aurora Ingest - VTR
Controller . The VTR Controller application opens.
2. Select Tools | Options . The VTR Controller Options dialog box displays.
3. Click the Add button. A dialog box displays that allows you to enter a name and
select a control port and timecode mode. The listening port is automatically
populated. (Knowing the listening port can be useful if, for example, you are
having difficulties with firewall and need to know what port should be allowed as
an exception.)
