Launching the CMA on Axon
Axon media servers can launch the CMA locally. When you start Axon, the local monitor will
display a desktop that gives you access to the CMA.
NOTE: An active display device must be attached to both DVI ports before
booting up the system. When only one port is connected, it defaults to
display the graphics engine output and will not display the CMA
screen.
Press the Launch CMA button on the local desktop. The
application automatically finds and identifies the Local Drives
including any connected USB drives, the CD/DVD drive as well as
other Axon and DL.2 media servers connected to the same Ethernet
network.
NOTE: The Axon Server supports an onboard DVD drive you
can use for copying content into an Axon Server as
well as burning User content onto DVD/CD.
Auto Discovery
When a DL.2 fixture or Axon media server is connected to a network, it sends out “Discovery”
messages. These messages are received by other servers on the link as well as the CMA
