Start Mode

The EtherneTV STB can operate in one of three modes described here. Use

MCS

mode if

there is an ETV Portal Server (formerly MCS) installed on your network. Otherwise you must
select

Local

or

Local-Full Screen

mode.

MCS Location

Receive Address

MCS

Use if the installation includes the EtherneTV Portal Server.

Local

Use if the installation does not include the EtherneTV Portal Server.
If Local, the site administrator must configure the Program Guide. See
Local Configuration on page 21 for more information.

Local-Fullscreen

Use if the desired operation is to set the unit to decode one channel
and operate in full screen mode at boot up. If you select Local-
Fullscreen mode, you must also enter a Receive Address; see below.

MCS Location

When the start mode is configured for MCS, this parameter
determines the IP address of the ETV Portal Server that the STB will
obtain its program listing information from. Enter the IP Address of
the portal server. The format is

172.12.12.12

.

Receive Address

When the Start mode is configured for

Local-Fullscreen

, this

parameter determines the IP address of the stream to be decoded. The
choice of receive address/program info and stream type of the desired
video must be entered here and must follow the syntax examples
shown in Table 1, Receive Address Syntax. Note that you can use a
hostname or numeric IP address wherever an

<ipaddr>

is called for if

the hostname is entered in the local DNS server.
