Initial Configuration
Working with SCSI Disks
MGW 2400 requires a SCSI disk to save streams to file. MGW
2400 is equipped with an Ultrawide SCSI port, which can
connect to SCSI disks.
To prepare and connect a SCSI disk:
1. Format the SCSI disk on a separate PC in NTFS or FAT
(
not
FAT32) format. If you wish, you can divide the SCSI
disk into several partitions.
2. Create folders on the SCSI disk using the DOS-Shell
command
MD
. Copy clips to the SCSI disk. You may
delete unused folders by using the DOS-Shell command
RD
.
3. Make sure that MGW 2400 is switched off.
4. Connect the accordingly prepared SCSI disk to MGW
2400’s SCSI port.
5. Switch MGW 2400 on again; MGW 2400 is now ready to
transmit prerecorded clips. The SCSI disk's default drive is
drive
D
. Additional SCSI disk partitions are labeled in
alphabetical order starting with drive
E
.
For instructions on sharing SCSI disk partitions, refer to
page 42.
Note
Remember that you may log on to MGW 2400 from the Configuration PC via
RS-232 or from any computer on the network via Telnet.
