Engineering Setup — Channels
The “Channels” tab is used to modify the configuration of the video channel hardware in the Mira Server, allowing Mira to be configured
for different operational environments.
The Channels tab has a different appearance for the Mira 8-Channel server versus the Mira 4-Channel server.
Individual Video Channels
The following configurations of the Mira 8-Channel and Mira 4-Channel servers allow each video channel to operate as an individual
transport, with each transport having its own RS422 serial control port. With Mira configured this way, each channel is like a separate VTR,
and each video channel can operate as either a recorder or player (a given video channel cannot record and play at the same time).
Mira 4-Channel Server
Use this procedure to configure all video channels as four independent channels, each channel with its own RS422 serial control
port. Each video channel can be used as either a recorder or player (a given video channel cannot record and play at the same
time).
To open the Mira Engineering Setup window shown below, perform the procedure “Launching Mira Engineering Setup Utility” found on page 173 above.
1.Click “Channels” tab.
2.Click “V V V V” radio button for first group of four channels (ChA-ChD).
3.Click
to accept the changes.

V V V V (Four video channels)
Configures the first group of four video channels
(ChA-ChD) as four independent video I/O channels,
each channel with its own RS422 serial control port.
