Digital Media Interface

Digital Music

mPanel’s UPnP AV Control Point technology allows it to automatically detect and stream music

from any Windows Connect Media Server.

Using mPanel’s built-in digital amplifier, this music can be played directly on attached speakers.

For local music playing, mPanel will provide 7 Watts/channel and up to 20 Watts/channel at 4

Ohms or 10 Watts/channel at 8 Ohms (Peak)/channel over PoE I/II.

Digital Pictures

mPanel automatically detects photo libraries. Once a photo folder has been selected, mPanel can

start a slide show.

mPanel Installation and Configuration

Mount Location Planning and Preparation

¾IMPORTANT: Make sure that you are satisfied with the location before making a cut out in

your wall.

¾Select a location that is close to an Ethernet connection. This Ethernet connection will be

used to connect to your local area network (LAN). The LAN will provide data information

for the Digital Control Interface (mControl) and Digital Media Interface (Music). Optionally,

your Ethernet cable will be used for power, if you will be powering the mPanel using PoE.

¾If you are not using PoE, select a location that is close to a power outlet, so that you can

connect the mPanel power adapter.

¾Select a height that provides optimum viewing and touch operation.

¾To plan for mPanel wall mounting, use the following diagram, which shows the area

required in the wall with the front panel installed.

Thickness on the wall

¾Once, you are happy with the location, cut a rectangular opening 7.75” X 5.5” as shown.

This is the opening that is required to place the mPanel in to the wall.

Mounting Instructions

¾IMPORTANT: Ensure that all power is turned off during mounting. If you are using PoE,

ensure that the Ethernet cable is unplugged at the PoE hub port.

¾Install the speaker wires to the green connector provided, matching the left and right

channels with accordingly, allow at least 6" slack to the wire. Use minimum wire gage of

16AWG.

After connecting the speaker wires to the connector, plug this connector into the mPanel
