Page 15
2.14 USB ports
The Dolby IMS3000 front panel has three USB ports that can accommodate an external USB
device, such as the CaptiView Transmitter, or a USB external drive for content ingestion.
The Dolby IMS3000 supports USB 3.0 for ingesting content at much higher speeds than USB
2.0. In some situations, a USB 3.0 drive may be detected as USB 2.0. This prevents you from
ingesting content at the highest speed possible. Make sure that you are using a good quality
cable.
You can identify a USB 3.0 cable by looking at the connector ends. USB 3.0 cables have blue
connectors.
If the cable is plugged into the Dolby IMS3000 slowly, the USB 2.0 pins are detected first and
the drive is mounted using the slower 2.0 settings. If a prompt appears that says This devicecould perform faster, this indicates that the USB 3.0 drive was detected as USB 2.0. In such a
case, try to re-seat the connection.
2.15 Dolby IMS3000 web UI
Dolby IMS3000 overview
The Dolby IMS3000 includes a web UI that enables you to configure and control audio and video

Dolby IMS3000 is powered off. The main storage NAS must remain powered on and must be
accessible via the media network. This feature does not work with a Dolby IMS3000 that has
internal storage and an additional storage NAS.
You need SuperUser privileges to perform this operation.
Procedure
1. Set up an FTP connection between the source (such as an ingest server or Dolby TMS, etc.)
and the ETH2 port of the NAS.
2. Enter the appropriate credentials.

After you connect to the main storage NAS, you will be able to upload content into the
directory. There is no need to change to a different directory. After the content is fully
uploaded to the NAS, the system ingests the content, moving it from your current directory
to its final destination in the file system.

When you enable the signal generator and select Pink Noise, you can configure the system
to automatically pan pink noise through each channel sequentially using the Rotate and
Snap options:
Rotate: Pans the signal through each channel sequentially, maintaining a continuous
•
panning volume. As the signal in one channel starts to fade, the signal in the next channel
begins, so the signals overlap in a smooth fashion.
Snap: Pans the signal through each channel sequentially, one channel at a time, with only
•
one signal present at any time. After one signal ends, the next signal begins.
The default output level for pink noise, as well as for the thump and sine signal tones, is
