    - To Configure the Hardware Channels
      The number of hardware channels on your server depends on the configuration you purchased.
  - Video Formats
    When working in 3G video formats, or outputting for UHDTV1, the available formats and number of channels depends on the hardware you have installed in your server.
  - Video Router Setup
    You can connect the server to an external router and control the sources feeding the server.
  - Audio Setup
    You can select the number of audio channels to record, which sources audio will use, and which audio channel to monitor from the analog audio out headphone jack. The number of AES digital audio inputs and outputs depends on the model of server you purchased.
  - Audio Router Setup
    There are two integrated audio routers built into the server. An input router that sends audio from an audio input to any channel transport, and an output router that sends the audio from a channel transport to any audio output. The number of audio inputs and outputs depends on the options you have installed in your server.
  - Timecode Setup
    The selected timecode information that is recorded with the video can be overlaid on the output video stream of the server. This can be time of day linear timecode (LTC) coming into the server, or the embedded ancillary timecode (ATC) in the video stream being recorded.
  - Channel Label Setup
    You can assign a custom name to each channel transport to help identify the server it is on or what it is used for.
  - Quad Viewer Setup
    The Quad Viewer output can display either the Quad Viewer or a Count Down display. For Quad Viewer display you can adjust the transparency of the overlay text on the Quad Viewer output.
  - TSL Tally Setup
    The server can receive TSL messages from a downstream device to tally the channels on the server.

- Remote Control Support
  Use the information in this section to assist you in setting up an external device to control your server.
- Maintenance
  Refer to the following information for performing maintenance on your server, muting an alarm, restoring factory defaults, or upgrading the software.
- AsRun Log Creator
  The server keeps a log of stills and clips that have been played in their entirety on all channel of the server. This information can then be filtered and output into either a CSV file or a PDF report.

To Configure the Hardware Channels

The number of hardware channels on your server depends on the configuration you purchased.

Launch the Mira Config application.

You may be prompted to allow the program to make changes on the computer, click Yes.
Click the Channels tab.

Note: Your selections may appear different, depending on the number of channels you have.
Select the video processing mode and how you want the channels grouped.
Select the default alpha (key) output that is used on a video plus key channel transport when no alpha channel is present in the clip or no clip is loaded.
- Output BLACK on key output — the key (alpha) channel outputs a full frame of internally generated black.
- Output WHITE on key output — the key (alpha) channel outputs a full frame of internally generated white. Use this selection if the output is going to a switcher as an auto-select key. The full-frame white alpha will force the entire video image onscreen.
Click Apply.
