Using the LTM-LSHD with Final Cut Server
This covers a basic setup of the LTM-LSHD with Final Cut Server. For current best practices please refer to the Final Cut Server
admin guide.
The LairdShareHD should appear in your list of network hosts. For Apple OSX systems, the LairdShareHD announces itself using
Apple's Rendezvous technology, so you will “just see it” from the Finder and your applications. (Figure 3)
Before using your LTM-LSHD with Final Cut Server it must first be setup within the Preference pane of Final Cut Server.
The following is a simple setup of the LSHD within FCS. For
a more detailed explanation please refer to the "Adding a De-
vice" section of the Final Cut Server Setup & Admin Guide
1. Access the LSHD through the finder and create a folder for
your media assets - eg. "Media Pool"
2. Open up the FCS preference pane (located in Apple Sys-
tem preferences)
3. Click on Devices Tab
4. Click the plus sign in the lower left hand corner to add a
new device
5. Select "Network" from the device type listings (Figure 4)
6. Choose an appropriate device name - eg. MediaPool
7. Set network protocol as "AFP"
