Before you can record calls on your Join Appliance, you must connect it. You will connect equipment to the output ports to monitor your outputs. You will also connect peripheral devices to your Recorder to connect to the network and power source.
Included equipment
Before you get started, verify all equipment is present and optionally mount your Join Appliance to a wall or rack.
The following equipment is included with each Join device:
•Power cable
•Rack mount brackets and screws
•DisplayPort to HDMI adapter
If anything is missing or you
are not sure what version you have, contact your sales representative or visit
the Mediasite Customer Care Portal at www.sonicfoundry.com/support.
Attach rack mount brackets (optional)
All Join Appliance devices include rack mount brackets. Before you configure the Join hardware, you should attach the brackets and install the device in a rack. The brackets attach to the sides of the Join Appliance and are placed towards either the front or the back of the chassis.
To attach the rack mount brackets:
1. Remove the screws from the side of the chassis where the rack mount will be attached.
2. Line the bracket up with the screw holes and connect it to the chassis using the included flat-head screws.
3. Repeat steps 1-2 on the other side of the chassis.
A rail mount kit is available
as a separate add-on. Contact your Sonic Foundry sales representative for more
details.
