Using Configuration Manager
Configuration Manager is the primary configuration tool for the K2 Media Client. It
makes settings that apply to the overall K2 Media Client as well as settings that apply
to individual channels.
You can save settings as configuration files. Configuration files are generated by the
Configuration Manager application as stand-alone XML files. You can save settings
out of Configuration Manager into a configuration file. Likewise, you can load
settings into Configuration Manager from a configuration file.
You can use configuration files as a means to back up your settings. You can also use
configuration files to save several different groups of customized settings, each with
a unique name, so that you can quickly load settings for specialized applications.
NOTE: If you are accessing K2 Media Client from a Control Point PC with a
channel suite that has channels from multiple K2 Media Clients, make sure that
you select a channel from the K2 Media Client that you want to configure before
selecting
System | Configuration .

user access. For more information, see “Types of K2 users” on page 24 .
