Vertigo XG Configuration Guide 3-13
Vertigo XG’s Desktop Applications & Tools
Embedded Xmedia Server Control Panel
The Vertigo XG contains an Embedded Xmedia Server (EXMS), which acts as a local asset
database, as well as offering various services to the Vertigo XG.
The user interface for configuring and controlling the Embedded Xmedia Server is the
E
MBEDDED XMEDIA SERVER (EXMS) CONTROL PANEL. The EXMS Control Panel features
eleven (11) tabbed pages that contain parameters and settings related to the configuration
and functioning of the Embedded Xmedia Server.
To open the EXMS Control Panel window, open Windows Explorer (see page 3-12
) and
navigate to C
ONTROL PANEL>VERTIGOXMEDIA XMEDIA SERVER.
NOTE
Since all of the Vertigo applications are running locally on the Vertigo XG (e.g. Xplay), they
connect to the EXMS by specifying localhost as their XMEDIA SERVER IP ADDRESS.
The following table describes a sampling of the EXMS Control Panels tabbed pages, which
are of particular interest when configuring Vertigo XG devices:
General
The GENERAL page provides a quick view of the EXMS’s product
information like version and paths for the executable and working
folder.
The D
IRECTORIES CONFIGURATION properties allow you to specify and
view the Embedded Xmedia Server’s communication port and the full
directory paths where the EXMS stores or retrieves information from.
The Authorization Manager Configuration section allows you to
configure, enable, or disable the Vertigo Suite’s User Rights
Management.
Licensing
The EXMS manages the application licenses for local Vertigo
applications. The Licensing page allows you to view the currently
installed licenses, as well as install new license keys. See
“Vertigo XG’s licensing requirements” on page 1-7
for more
information.
