Configuring VTR Controller
After you have added the VTR, you should see it displayed in the VTR Status window
with a green indicator next to its name.
Once you have added VTRs, you can modify or delete them. However, if you only
have one VTR displayed in the status window, you cannot delete it and have an empty
status window.
Troubleshooting VTR Controller configuration
If you see a red indicator next to the VTR’s name, try restarting VTR Controller. If
the VTR status still displays a red indicator, verify the following:
• The correct COM port has been specified for the VTR.
• The COM port is not being used by another application controlling the VTR.
• The VTR is turned on.
• The hardware has been correctly installed. For more information, see “Installing
Aurora Ingest” on page 8 .
• The IP address or computer name where VTR Controller is installed matches the
address or name in the VTR Ingest application.
