(Option) Installing the AirSpeed Multi Stream Device Service
If your site uses Avid iNEWS Command, Interplay Capture, or Capture Manager to control
AirSpeed 5000 channels for capture or playout, you need to install the AirSpeed Multi Stream
Device Service on the AirSpeed 5000 server.
The AirSpeed Multi Stream Device Service (located on the Command CD) needs to be installed
on the AirSpeed 5000 server that is being controlled by either Command, Interplay Capture, or
Capture Manager.
To install AirSpeed Multi Stream Device Service:
1. Locate your Avid iNEWS Command CD, or navigate to somewhere on your network where
it is located.
2. Navigate to the Avid_Framework_Workstation folder in the installation location for your
site.
3. Double-click the AvidAirSpeedMultiStreamDeviceService.exe to launch the installer.
A splash screen appears, followed by a Welcome dialog box.
4. Click Next.
The License Agreement dialog box opens.
5. Read the License Agreement, accept the terms, and click Next.
6. Click Install to install the AirSpeed Multi Stream Device Service.
7. Determine if you need to install (or re-install) the a new version AirSpeed 5000 server
software on your system. For new systems, the AirSpeed 5000 server software is
pre-installed on your server.
t If you have re-imaged your AirSpeed 5000 server, or need to update your AirSpeed
5000 server software version to a newer version, you need to install the latest AirSpeed
5000 application software version. For more information, see “Installing the Software”
on page 62.
t If your AirSpeed 5000 server already contains the latest software version (this is the
case for new systems), you now must configure Avid Service Framework for your
environment. For more information, see the topic “Configuration Requirements” in the
AirSpeed 5000 Administrator’s Guide.
Once, that is done, you can use the Management Console to configure the AirSpeed
5000 for Record and Playback. For more information, see the AirSpeed 5000
Administrator’s Guide.
