MAX Servers - Setup and Configuration
20 MAX Servers: HT Home Theater and MMS Multimedia Servers
Online Database
MAX systems (firmware version 4.34 or higher) rely on an online media database for disc recognition.
The online database provides all media information (such as disc title, track/chapter information, artist
information, etc.). In order to identify discs (CDs and/or DVDs) as they are added to the MAX Server,
the MAX Server must have permanent access to the internet.
Without access to the internet, all media information must be entered manually.
Mandatory 24-Hour Initialization Period (HT Servers only)
IMPORTANT ! MAX-HT Servers require a 24-hour initialization period (to charge and initialize the
RAID batteries). This simply entails powering up the server and letting it charge and initiate for 24 hours
before use.
Failure to allow this initialization to complete may cause performance problems during media playback.
If Power Is Removed From the HT Server
If for reason power is removed from the HT Server for any length of time more than one hour, the RAID
batteries will begin to discharge. Partially discharged batteries may cause performance problems during
media playback.
In the event that the HT Server has sat without power for more than an hour, you should allow the server
to charge for up to 18 hours to ensure that the batteries are fully charged, before use.
Step 1: Connect a Mouse, Keyboard and VGA Monitor
Previous versions of the MAX Servers utilize a database that resides on the server,
and therefore do not require a permanent connection to the internet. The shift from an
onboard media information database (updated periodically) to a dynamic online
database will provide more accurate and consistent results when identifying new
media as they are added to the MAX Server.
For best results, always use a UPS with MAX Servers and avoid removing all power
from the unit.

Note : minor layout variations exist between the MMS and HT servers -
for example, there is no parallel printer port on the HTs, and the USB 1
port is located outside of this panel.
