Accessing the Server
There are two methods you can use to access the Vision
2
server: directly and remotely. Accessing directly
requires connecting a monitor, keyboard, and mouse to the server and accessing it as you would with a typical
PC. Accessing remotely requires using a remote desktop program to log in to the server.
Accessing the Server Directly
Perform these steps to access your server directly:
1.
Connect a monitor to the VGA port on the front of the server.
2.
Connect a USB keyboard and USB mouse to the 2 USB ports on the front of the server.
3.
Power on the Vision
2
server. It may take a few minutes to boot.
4.
Enter the username and password for the server. The default settings are:
username
: Administrator
password
: vision2
5.
When the desktop appears, you can now access Vision
2
via the web browser. On the desktop,
double-click the shortcut to the Vision
2
Master Services page. The Vision
2
ServicesManager appears.
Accessing the Server Remotely
Perform these steps to access your server remotely:
1.
Test that you can access the server via the LAN. You can run this test by accessing a Command Prompt
using the Ping command. For example:
ping v2AMX-<SVCTAG>
where
<SVCTAG>
is the service name, which you can find on the front of your server. If the server
responds, write down the IP address of the server.
2.
Open a remote desktop service on a remote system on the same LAN as the server.
3.
Using a web browser on a PC with network access, navigate to
http://<servername>/admin.aspx
. The
V2ServicesManager appears. You can also double-click the shortcut to the Vision
2
Master Services page
to access the Vision
2
ServicesManager.
Changing Your Server’s Name
You can change your server’s name from the default name assigned to it when you first receive it. After
changing the name, use the new name to access the Vision
2
application. Perform these steps to change your
server’s name:
1.
On your server’s desktop, close the v2server application.
2.
On your server’s desktop, right-click
My Computer
, and select
Properties
. The System Properties
window opens.
3.
Click the
Computer Name
tab.
4.
Click
Change
. The Computer Name Changes dialog box opens.
5.
Enter the new name of the server in the
Computer Name
field.
6.
Click
OK
, and restart the server as requested. Next, you must add the new server name to Windows
Media Services.
There is also a 15-pin VGA port and 2 USB ports on the rear of the server. It makes
no difference which set of ports you use to connect your peripherals.
You can also access the server by using a remote desktop, however, you only need
to use remote desktop to access the server for troubleshooting. You should also
always use the Connect to Console when using a Remote desktop application,
otherwise you will not see the v2server application running. You should configure to
remote desktop to leave sound at the remote computer. If you keep the server
running continuously, it should always be accessible via its web address.
