If installing Avid iNEWS Command to interface with a MOS-based newsroom
computer system, such as ENPS, you must select Avid MOS Communication Service
and deselect Avid iNEWS Communication Service.
If your site intends to use Avid iNEWS Command tablet application on the iPad, ensure
the Avid Remote Communication Service is selected for installation. For more
information, see “Installing and Configuring the Tablet Application” on page 203.

Video device service is selected for installation. Add one for each device—up to ten
possible per server—by clicking the plus [+] next to that service and selecting more. By
default, this device service is not installed with the Perle IOLAN TCP/serial port server.
Command supports full redundancy with VDCP.
If your site intends to view thumbnails of media items, such as graphics from an Avid
Deko or video from Avid AirSpeed video servers, ensure that either or both of the
following services are installed:
- For thumbnail integration with an Avid AirSpeed and thumbnail/metadata
integration with third-party video servers, install the Avid Interplay Agent service.
This service will require some configuration after installation on each Command
Server. For more information, see “Configuring Avid Interplay Agent Services” on
page 59.
- For thumbnail integration with an Avid Deko, install the Avid Deko Renderer
service. By default, this service is pre-configured to automatically locate the
DekoMOS Gateway on the network. You can verify the setting via the Avid Service
Configuration application. For more information, see the Avid iNEWS Command
Administration Guide.
By default, these two services are not installed.
