Adding an XG Inside device to the Xmedia Server’s Device
Manager
The Xmedia Server acts as the central storage and management system for Vertigo assets
like templates, pages, scenes and their associated assets (i.e. images, clips, cel
animations...etc).
For the Xmedia Server to publish assets to the Embedded Xmedia Server (EXMS) on the
iTX Output Server, you must add an XG Inside device configuration profile to the Xmedia
Server’s Device Manager.
To add the XG Inside device to the Xmedia Server’s Device Manager:
1.
Open Xstudio on a client machine and ensure that it is connected to the Xmedia Server.
2. Select the T OOLS >D EVICE M ANAGER menu command.
The D EVICE M ANAGER window (Device Configuration) opens.
Note that the Device Manager will display all of the device profiles that were previously
added to the Xmedia Server.
3. Select the A DD button in the lower-left corner.
The Device Configuration section (lower portion) immediately changes to become the
Add Device Information section.
4. Fill-in the fields to create a device configuration profile for the XG Inside device.
• Provide a Name, Alias and Description for the device (e.g. XGInside)
• The Device Type must be V
ERTIGO XG.
• The Control IP must be set to the IP address of the iTX Output Server hosting
the XG Inside software components.
• The Control Port must be left as 4000.
