Revision 1.5 OVERVIEW

1.3. NETWORK CONFIGURATION

In order for Overture to operate properly, the PC on which the software is running needs to be on the

same TCP/IP network as the Media Branding products. When using a network server to store media,

Overture must also be connected to this network. Please contact your IT system administrator to

ensure network connectivity is established.
