CMS Connection

When you purchase a CMS server, you can create an account in the CMS server and authorize such account to manage the group which this SMP player belongs to. If you plan to use a CMS server to control this SMP player, please configure CMS settings in this section.

1. Please enter the User name, Password and Group name of the account, as well as the Hostname or IP address of the CMS server.

   Group	Assign the group which this SMP player belongs to.
   Username	The username is the account you create in the CMS server, and this account should be authorized to mange this group.
   Password	User's password.
   Hostname or IP address	Hostname or IP address of the CMS server

   Note
   For the Hostname of the CMS server, you must enter FQDN (full qualified domain name) here (e.g. www.cayintech.com).

2. After completing all settings, please click Test to check the validity of the account and IP address. Please note that the Test button can only be used to test the validity of the Username, Password, Group, and IP address.
3. Then you can adjust the frequency parameters for several SMP/CMS services. The frequency value is from 5 (Frequent) to 1 (Infrequent). If you don't need to check configuration updates from CMS to SMP frequently, you can lower the frequency and reduce network traffic.

   Value	Check CMS Configuration Updates (period per area)	Communicate with SuperMonitor (period every heartbeat)
   5	10 seconds	20 seconds
   4	30 seconds	30 seconds
   3	60 seconds	60 seconds
   2	180 seconds	180 seconds
   1	600 seconds	600 seconds

   Note
   If you connect SMP players to CMS version 5.0 or earlier, please set frequency to 5 or 4, otherwise you may see the invalid status of SMP connection in Client List or SuperMonitor.
