Quick Start
Unpack the FHD Player.
Remove the SD card slot cover (7).
Using the power adapter connect the FHD Player to the power supply.
With the HDMI port (3) connect a display to the FHD Player.
Save the required media le to the SD card.
Plug the SD card into the corresponding FHD Player slot (7).
hThe media le will play automatically.
b The FHD Player is designed for 24/7 operation. If you want to stop playback disconnect the power supply or
remove the SD card.
Initialization le
b The supplied SD card contains the initialization le FHDPlayerSetting.ini. This le includes the current FHD Player
conguration and all adjustable options; it can be edited using any typical text editor.
After plugging the SD card into slot (7) the FHD Player automatically accepts the changed conguration.
When changes to the conguration are aected with the Web Interface a new initialization le is automatically
saved to the SD card. The original SD card initialization le is automatically renamed to FHDPlayerSetting.old.
b If no storage device is connected to the FHD Player the display shows the current conguration.
9
Network connection
b If you would like to use several FHD Players in a network you need to assign individual IP addresses to each
FHDPlayer rst. The IP address can be changed in the SD card initialization le.
The FHD Player is precongured for [IP] 10.20.30.1, [Subnet] 255.0.0.0 and [Gateway] 10.0.0.253.
Using a network cable connect the FHD Player to the network with the LAN port (2).
hConnection with the network has now been established.
Connection with the Web Interface
b The FHD Player must be integrated into the network.
Determine the FHD Player IP address.
b If no storage device is connected to the FHD Player the display shows the IP address.
Enter the FHD Player’s IP address (e.g. 10.20.30.1) into the web browser’s address line.
hThe web interface main page is now displayed in the web browser.
10
Sync Mode
b For Sync Mode all FHD Player media files must have the same playing time.
The media files must contain audio tracks.
The playlists of all FHD Players must be identical or deleted.
The FHD Players must be connected to a network.
For every group to be synced only one master must be used.
In the SD card initialization le change parameters [SYNCContol] to On and [SYNCType] to Master or Slave.
Plug the SD cards into the FHD Players.
hAll slaves will now automatically follow the master.
Loop mode
b Media files can be played in a loop with a seamless transition.
If the SD card does not contain a playlist the media files are sorted in an alphanumeric order.
In the initialization le on the SC card change parameter [PLAYMode] to the desired option.
Repeat All: All media les on the SD card are played in an endless loop.
Repeat Default: The rst media le on the SD card is played in an endless loop until some other media le
was chosen with external control (e.g. 2-button GPIO mode). Following this the endless
loop of the rst media le starts again.

Selecting the output for a display
Connect a display to the desired output.
On the web interface select Setup > Video Setup.
You can choose the Video Output (HDMI or VGA).
Select the resolution matching your display.
Select the aspect ratio matching your display.
Click Apply Settings.
b If you enable Auto-EDID the FHD Player will automatically try to detect the resolution and the aspect ratio of the
display.
hThe chosen display has now been enabled and is ready for playback of the media les.
Repeat Selected: One media le selected with external control is played in an endless loop until a new
media le is selected.
Now plug the SD card into the FHD Player.
hThe selected loop mode is now performed.
12
RS232 control
b The RS232 interface can be used for sending control commands to the FHD Player.
Protocol for control with the RS232 interface:
Data transfer: 9600 Baud, ATM
Data bits: 8
Parity bit: None
Stop bit:1
With the RS232 interface connect the FHD Player to the control device (e.g. PC).
In the web interface open Setup > Peripheral Setup.
Select Serial Device > Terminal for control.
Choose the corresponding baud rate.
Click Apply Settings.
hThe commands can now be transferred from your individual control program.

b Every command must be terminated by Carriage Return and Line Feed (CR, LF or 0x0D, 0x0A, respectively)!
UDP Control
b You can send UDP commands via the network protocol in order to control the FHD Player.
Set up the FHD Player correctly as part of your network.
The FHD Player is precongured for UDP Port 4950. If this port is already in use assign a free UDP port in
the initialization le.
Set the FHD Players IP address in your individual control program.
hThe commands can now be transferred.
Example:
PLAYINDEX=2 0x0D 0x0A
hThe FHD Player playbacks ITEM2 of the playlist
or the second media le of alphanumeric order.

2-button GPIO mode
b The FHD Player can be controlled with the RS232 interface and two buttons. Default assignment: Pushbutton 1
for jumping one media file forward, Pushbutton 2 for jumping back one media file.
Fig.: Circuit diagram for two buttons at RS232
Connect the buttons as shown in the above circuit diagram.
In the web interface open Setup > Peripheral Setup.
Select Serial Device > RC.
Click Apply Settings.
hYou can now use GPIO control with default assignment or with a playlist
(see example on the following page).
