cards, Carbonite production switchers, Ross
video servers, and Ross cameras. Download and install
the latest version of DashBoard from
Review the documentation that comes with DashBoard

To control Mira from DashBoard you must create a
custom panel in DashBoard using PanelBuilder to send
VDCP or Mira Ethernet API commands to the server.

Clip ID Support
Devices using the VDCP or Odetics protocol can use the
8-character clip ID assigned to a clip. By default, the
server does not assign a clip ID to the clip when it is
recorded or imported. If there is no clip ID, the first 8
characters of the clip name are used instead.
