Install Instructions - OS X
Download and move all the installers to your Desktop
Unzip the Adobe ExManCmd file, this will leave a folder called "Contents" on your desktop.
Open up a terminal window and ensure that you cd (i.e. your directory path) to your desktop, as this is critical for the next part to work.
Run this command to to this (you may cut and paste these commands):
cd ~/Desktop/Contents/MacOS/
Then run the following command in the terminal session to change the file permissions for ExManCmd:
chmod +x ./ExManCmd
Finally, run the following command in the terminal session to install the Plug-in:
./ExManCmd --install ~/Desktop/CatDVCCPanel2.1.1.zxp
Note: If you downloaded a version other than "CatDVCC2.1.0.zxp" simply insert the correct name of the file on your desktop into the command. i.e.
"./Contents/MacOS/ExManCmd --install CatDVCCPanel2.0.0.zxp" if the file was called "CatDVCCPanel2.0.0.zxp"
Note: The dash before "install" is actually 2 dashes or minuses. This is called a minus minus install eg – -install ( space added for emphasis.)
Exit the terminal session. (Quit Terminal.)
Start Adobe Premiere and check that the Panel opens.
Testing Panel
If you don't see the CatDV panel in Premiere, select the "Extensions > CatDV" option from the "Window" menu

Verify the running port number by checking the CatDV Server Control Panel on the CatDV Server or with your CatDV administrator
