TUTORIAL: GETTING TO KNOW YOUR CISCO DIGITAL MEDIA ENCODER 2000
Checking CPU Usage
Since you are able to start multiple streams, understanding how much of the processing power of the
Cisco Digital Media Encoder 2000 is being used is invaluable. If you are using less than 50%, then
you should be able to start another encoding session without adversely affecting system
performance.
Press the <MENU> button to display the main menu on the Cisco Digital Media Encoder 2000 LCD
readout.
The LCD readout will display the following menu choices:
Using the <UP> and <DOWN> buttons, move the arrow until it is next to the menu item Access and
then press the <ENTER> button.
The LCD readout will display the Access menu choices. Press the <ENTER> button with CPU
menu item selected.
The Cisco Digital Media Encoder 2000 LCD readout displays the amount of CPU cycles in use.
When the Cisco Digital Media Encoder 2000 is idle (no encoder sessions running), the CPU percent
displayed should be 4 percent or less. If one or more encoder sessions are running, then the percent
displayed will be much higher and will fluctuate in a range of +/- 10 percentage points.
Press the <ENTER> button to return to the previous menu.
Stopping an Encoding Session
To stop an encoder, press the <STOP> button.
