Version and Configuration

Version and Configuration is available to users and admins. It allows you to see what software and tool versions your server is running, provides a tool to install TelVue^® upgrade packages, and lets you see log files.

Version Information

To view information on the current Digital Broadcaster user interface, click on About under Systems. The application displays the Version and Configuration Information screen.

The Versions box shows the user interface’s date stamp in the form YYYYMMDDHHMM, release number, UI revision number, schema version, MPEG tools version, and Media Server version.

The Network Settings box shows:

1. External IP Address – the server address as it appears to the outside world.
2. Internal IP address – the server address as it appears on your network.

The Configuration box shows if configurations, such as CCMS, Content Sources, H264 Support, and IP Capture, are enabled or disabled.

To return to the Config tab, click the Config tab.

Installing a Software Upgrade

Warning: Follow all instructions for a TelVue software update carefully.  Do not attempt to install third-party software on your server.  Use only software packages provided by TelVue.

Install software upgrades at a time when you can reboot the server with minimal disruption to your viewers.  To begin the upgrade, click on “Software Upgrade” in the Systems section.

Choose the package name from the drop-down list or browse for it.  When you have selected the software package click on the Install or Upload & Install button.  To exit without installing any software, click on the Cancel button.

Once you have installed the software package, reboot the server as described in Turn Off or Reboot the Server on page 99.

Download Log Files

To create a log file in downloadable format for troubleshooting, click on Log Files in the Systems section. Click on Create Log File at the bottom of the screen.  The log file will be saved in your /vol1 directory (folder).
