Connecting Peripherals

Make sure your monitors are connected the MA Appliance with HDMI cables. After the peripherals are well connected, plug the power cord into the Appliance and insert the other end into a power outlet.

NOTE: DO NOT connect the power cord before connecting all cables to the MA Appliance.

Using Cable Extenders

To be compatible with the MA Appliance, the extenders should have EDID management function. If there are display issues due to the video cable extenders, please contact your local reseller or system integrator to recommend verified extenders.

Precautions

• Always exercise care when operating and handling
- Never disassemble any portion of the enclosure, as this will void any product warranty.
- Do not use any AC/DC adapter other than the one provided with the device or acquired from the manufacturer or its partners.
- In the unlikely event that smoke, abnormal noise, or strange odor is present, immediately power down the product and disconnect all power sources.
- Please report the problem to your device provider immediately.
- Pushing on the Power Button again will restart the appliance.

Powering ON and OFF

The Power Button is located on the back of the MA Appliance.

To turn the MA Appliance on, push and release the Power Button on the front bezel. The power LED will be lit (blue), and the corresponding interface will be shown on the display monitors. To turn off the appliance, use the software shutdown interface provided.

If your MA player hangs up, please restart it from WCM or RDP rather than pressing the power button to restart, otherwise the OS may become corrupted.
