Devices Pane Settings
Devices are storage locations where Final Cut Server can interact with assets and
productions. When you installed Final Cut Server, you entered a production media
location. By default, Final Cut Server creates three devices at that location: Library,
Watchers, and Media.
The Devices pane of System Preferences includes a Device Setup Assistant that you can
use to modify these default devices or add additional devices. See Chapter 5, “
Using
Device Setup Assistant,” on page 59 for detailed information on adding and managing
additional devices.
