The Server is designed for “Plug and Play” That is, plug in your inputs and start recording without much configuration.

ZX comes with;

  • Localized power cables

  • If you purchased accessories such as media drives or a rack kit, they will be packed separately.

  • Optional Restore Disk. If you would like to create additional Restore USB Keys, please find instructions here.

First Setup

On first set up, connect a standard HDMI monitor to the ZX85 Server. While the Server comes preconfigured with a license, you may want to review the EULA and Product Registration before using the Server.

If a network card or other 3rd party PCIe device is installed in the Server, then you will be asked for a new license. In this case, please follow the instructions here to obtain a new license file.
