Mirage Media Server Set Up
7 of 19
Wired Ethernet Settings
In this section, you can congure your server’s network connection to automatically use a
network DHCP server to obtain its IP address and network settings, or you can manually specify
a static IP setting.
If you choose to use Manual Conguration be sure to enter the correct settings for IP Address,
Subnet Mask, Gateway, and DNS 1 & 2. If you are unsure how to congure these settings it
would be best to leave your connection set to
Autonomic (DHCP) or contact your network
administrator.
WARNING
Setting these values incorrectly can prevent the MMS from connecting to your network, and
could make the server unreachable. If this happens, there is a utility available at
http://www.autonomic-controls.com/support_faq_mms.php which can help you recover.
Logging
This section allows you to upload internal server logs les and, optionally, your media database
if you are instructed by the Autonomic support team. These log les will be sent directly to our
support staff.
Restarting Your Server
The
Utilities section contains a link to restart your MMS. Clicking this link will make your MMS
unresponsive for 2-3 minutes while it shuts down and restarts itself.
Display Settings
The Display Settings tab allows you to congure the Mirage on-screen display options. Your
monitor or TV display should be plugged into the VGA or HDMI on an MMS-2A or DVI or
HDMI ports on your MMS-5A before turning on the server.
It is important to remember to press the Save button at the top of this tab after you are nished
making any changes to this page. If you navigate away from this page without pressing Save,
your changes will be lost.
NOTE
Some HDMI receivers and switches are not compatible with the MMS. If you receive an error
message on screen, or if the MMS seems non-responsive, try plugging the HDMI cable directly
into the display, bypassing any adaptors, switches, or AV receivers.
On-Screen Display Resolution (OSD)
The MMS-5A supports HDMI (1080p and 720p); DVI (1080p and 720p); component video or
VGA available with adapter (not included).
The MMS-2A supports HDMI and VGA Outputs (Max Resolution of 1920 X 1080). 15-pin

Please check the available resolutions on your display to determine if it is compatible with the
available output resolutions on the MMS.
