The Tieline TieServer Console allows Tieline customers to view and manage TieServer related configuration of Tieline products. This includes:
•Codec licensing options.
•CMS licensing.
•Report-IT Enterprise Edition domain management.
This guide is designed to assist Report-IT administrators to use the PC/MacTieServer Console for configuring Report-IT Enterprise 25/50/100 Pack user accounts. Report-IT Enterprise 25/50/100 Pack user accounts can also be configured using portable Apple or Android devices:
1.Download the Report-IT Enterprise Edition application from the iTunes App Store and enter an administrator login to configure Report-IT Enterprise 25/50/100 Pack user licenses.
2.Download the TieServer Console application for Android from the Google Play store and enter an administrator login to configure Report-IT Enterprise 25/50/100 Pack user licenses.
Download Report-IT User Manuals at http://www.tieline.com/Support/Documentation/User-Manuals for more information on operating and configuring Report-IT using applications downloaded onto portable devices.
1.Support for connecting to Merlin and Genie IP codecs.
2.The FTP tab in the TieServer Console has become Sharing to allow for expanded file server sharing capabilities.
3.The introduction of metadata support for GPS location data to be included when sharing recorded reports.
4.Compatibility with Nétia Radio-Assist management systems to allow seamless file sharing of recorded files with Netia systems.
5.The release of a new TieServer Console application for Android, which allows engineers with Android handsets to download the new application and program all Report-IT user contacts using any compatible Android device. Previously, support for programming Android Report-IT user accounts was dependent upon using either an Apple device or a PC running the TieServer Console web browser GUI.
6.Addition of a Tag identifier to user accounts.
For a list of all release notes for Report-IT Enterprise v3.2.0 please visit http://www.tieline.com/Support/Latest-Firmware.
The TieServer Console requires internet access and Java 1.6.0_21 or higher. It has been tested and is compatible with the following browsers:
•Safari (Mac OS X, Windows XP, Windows 7)
•Internet Explorer (Windows XP, Windows 7)
•Firefox (Windows 7, Max OS X)
Note: If using Mac OS X please use Snow Leopard v10.6 or greater.
If the appropriate version of Java is not available, please follow any automatically provided onscreen directions to install or upgrade your current version.
Tieline will create an administrator account and domain name for your network on TieServer and you can use this domain to configure all Report-IT user accounts. Tieline will also supply a username and password for your administrator account. Use these to log in to your TieServer administrator account and configure Report-IT Enterprise 25/50/100 Pack user accounts.
Report-IT Enterprise 25/50/100 Pack Administrators can use the TieServer Console web-GUI to configure:
1.Default domain settings for codec, sharing (e.g. FTP servers and Nétia Radio-Assist™) and connection settings. These apply when no individual user account settings have been configured.
2.Individual user account settings: These settings override the 'global' default domain settings when enabled.
|
Important Note: It is possible to connect live to a studio codec using an administrator version of the Report-IT application to test codec, sharing and default domain settings. Using administrator accounts on devices to broadcast is not recommended because any settings you apply become global default settings for all user accounts and any changes may interfere with their operation. |
Following is a suggested process for configuring Report-IT Enterprise 25/50/100 Pack with the TieServer Console for the first time.
1.Add the codecs to which users will connect using the Codecs screen.
2.Add all share servers to which users will connect using the Sharing screen.
3.Configure the Default Domain (user connection) settings into Report-IT.
4.Create user accounts and configure individual account settings for each user account license.

Important Note: Before commencing configuration of codec connections, ensure Tieline has recorded all the serial numbers of the codecs in your network into TieServer. Register via www.tieline.com/register |
