Table 2. Global Assignments

Function

Description

 

 

Assign a Global Message

The global message will be displayed in the message area of

 

the Portal Server user interface, when there is no program

 

information available. Enter the message text and click

 

Submit. Example: There will be an all hands meeting today at

 

4:00 p.m. in the boardroom. Note that if you are running the

 

Portal Server on a Set Top Box, the message area will not

 

display more than 4 lines of text.

 

 

Define Set Top Box Startup

When an STB (in ETV Portal Server Start mode) accesses the

Channel

"Watch live broadcasts" page, it can be set to automatically

 

play a defined channel in the Preview Window. Highlight that

 

channel from the list and click Submit. If there are no

 

channels listed, channels must first be defined as Customized

 

Live Streams.

 

 

Change Admin User Name

Change the default admin user name of admin.

 

 

Change Admin Password

Change the default admin password of admin.

 

 

Define FTP User Name

ETV Portal Server is defaulted for "anonymous" FTP access,

 

which is configured in Windows IIS Default FTP Site. If a

 

more secure FTP access is desired, the User Name can be

 

changed in IIS (please reference the Windows Server

 

documentation for instructions on how to change the FTP

 

User Name). The same User Name should be entered here.
