Starting Up and Shutting Down Systems
The following procedures explain how to launch and shut down
NewsCutter, Media Recorder, single-channel AirPlay MP, and the
AirPlay MP/NewsCutter combination systems.
See ÒStarting Up and Shutting Down Multichannel AirPlay MP
SystemsÓ on page 219 for information about multichannel AirPlay MP
systems.
Starting Up the System
AirPlay MP systems are shipped with a power sequencer. All
AirPlay MP components are connected to the sequencer. When the
power sequencer is turned on, all of the AirPlay MP components are
turned on in the proper sequence.
To start up a system:
1. Insert any removable disk into the system (skip this step if the
system does not have removable disks).
2. Turn on the external drives (if any) in the following order:
¥ MediaDock
¥ MRS
¥ RAID enclosures
¥ External MediaDrives
Wait 15-30 seconds for the drives to spin up before starting the
Avid Media Processor, or it will not communicate with the drives
successfully.
3. Turn on all other hardware except the Avid Media Processor.
