your personal computer. The following are recommended hardware requirements for the CMA:
The following are recommended software requirements for running the CMA:

• Microsoft .Net 2.0 and 1.1 with Service Pack 2 installed
• 100/1000 base Ethernet card (a Gigabit Ethernet card is recommended for fast content
uploading of large files)

prevent IP address conflicts that can keep the CMA from recognizing
DL.2 or Axon units.

your media server.

install, navigate to the CMA.msi file in your windows browser and
