D. Configure ScreenBeam Receiver
ScreenBeam 960 can be configured by using the ScreenBeam
CMS software or accessing the ScreenBeam’s local
management interface (LMI).
Using ScreenBeam CMS Software
ScreenBeam Central Management System (CMS) is a highly
recommended complimentary tool for multi-unit deployment,
configuration and administration.
1.
To obtain CMS software and the CMS User Guide, go to:
https://support.screenbeam.com/cms.
2.
Refer to the CMS User Guide for setup instructions.
Note: Access to the LMI is prohibited by default if
ScreenBeam 960 is connected to ScreenBeam CMS
for management. This option can be changed in the
receiver’s settings.
