Chapter 3 Configuring the Aurora Transfer System
Configure M-Series MDIs
This page configures the Managed Device Interface (MDI) for the M-Series iVDR.
MediaFrame depends on the M-Series MDI to make M-Series assets visible across the
system.
As you configure the M-Series MDI make sure that you associate the M-Series MDI
and M-Series host names correctly.
Multiple M-Series MDIs run on a single machine (the Transfer Server), but they each
need their own process port number. For this purpose, enter incrementing numbers
9140 - 9149 in the “Port” field. The MDIs and their port numbers must match settings
as in
“Configure Media Frame ASK: Register components” on page 26 . To make the
configurations easier to read for troubleshooting purposes, add MDIs sequentially so
there is a correlation between the port number and any number in the MDI name.
