BDP-2 DIGITAL PLAYER

GENERAL
DESCRIPTION
The Bryston BDP-2 is a state-of-the-art digital
music player that can play back most high resolu-
tion digital music formats including AIFF, FLAC
& WAV les up to 24 bits @ 192 kilo samples per
second (192/24) as well as standard formats and
lower resolution digital music les like MP3’s. It
receives digital audio inputs via any of its six
USB ports. The BDP-2 outputs digital signals via
its SPDIF and AES/EBU ports for connecting to an
external digital-to-analog converter like Bryston’s
BDA-1, which in turn delivers analog audio signals
to preamps and integrated ampliers. The BDP-2
can be controlled locally via its front panel push-
button controls using the BDP-2’s dot matrix dis-
play and by Bryston’s infra-red handheld remote
control, the BR2. It can be controlled remotely via
Bryston’s web apps; MINI for mobile devices and
MAX for desktop computers & tablets. It can also
be controlled by the iPod Touch music player or
the iPad using their WiFi interface and the mPod
app.
BDP-2 FEATURES:

NETWORK VERSUS LOCAL CONTROL
NETWORK:In this context NETWORK refers to
any control method that physically interconnects
to the BDP-2 through its Ethernet port. These
methods include Bryston -Mini and Bryston-Max
and the mPod app for iPod Touch or iPhone, and
similar web based applications. All computer
network control methods require the use of a
Web browser application. Using an iPod Touch as a
remote control requires a wireless home computer
network with a Web Browser. The BDP-2 inter-
faces to the home computer network’s router via
its Ethernet port.
LOCAL:includes the front panel push button
switches and alpha-numeric/dot matrix display
and infra-red remote controls like Bryston’s BR2.
See Operational Notes for more information.
BR2 REMOTE CONTROL (OPTIONAL)
The BR2 infra-red remote control can be used
with the BDP-2 to control the basic PLAY, STOP,
PAUSE, FORWARD & REVERSE functions. The BR2
is a multi-function remote capable of operating
not only the BDP-2, but also the BDA-1 & BDA-2
digital-to-analog converters and many Bryston pre-
amps and integrated amplifiers such as the BP26,
BP6, BP16, B60R and B100. To use the BR2 with
the BDP-2, set it to “D/A” mode. For more informa-
tion see the BR2 Owner’s Manual.

POWER CONSIDERATIONS:
In general, if your BDP-2 has a three prong ground-
ed line cord you can reduce the possibility of local
ground loops which could cause hum or noise in
the system by plugging its line cord into the same
wall outlet next to the power amp and other
equipment in your system.
FUSES & ELECTRICAL SAFETY:
The BDP-2 contains two glass fuses (5x20mm cy-
lindrical), one for the standby power supply and
one for the main linear power supply. IF it should
become necessary to replace either of these
fuses we recommend that you seek the assistance
of qualied service personnel. If you decide to
change the fuse yourself we advise the following:
1st) Turn off the BDP-2
2nd) Disconnect ALL cables from the rear of the
BDP-2, especially the power cord.
3rd) Remove all 10 screws securing the top
cover to the chassis and remove the top
cover.
4th) Locate the 5x20mm glass fuses on the
power supply board at the rear left corner
of the unit (near the IEC power inlet). Re-
place blown fuses only with the same type
and value. All fuses are rated 250V and
are slow acting (time lag) types. Refer to
the Fuse label inside the unit for the exact
replacement values.
5th) Replace the top panel and all screws and
reconnect all cables before plugging in the
unit and turning it back on.

FIRMWARE UPDATES
BDP-2 firmware updates will periodically be avail-
able from Bryston. To install updates you will
have to have your BDP-2 connected, via its Ether-
net connection, to a router or computer with an
internet connection. Enter bryston-BDP-2.local
in the address bar of your computers web browser
to connect to the BDP-2 and then click updata
available.(refer to the screen shot at right)
To determine which
version of firmware is
running on your BDP-
2, use the front panel
navigation keys to go

BDP-2’s menu. Then
push the UP key
again to display the
firmware version num-
ber and its date on the
2nd line of the display.
Press the DOWN ar-
row navigation button
to display the units IP
address (this would be
useful if Bonjour or
a similar service dis-
covery protocol isn’t
installed on your per-
sonal computer and you
have to use the actual
IP address instead of the name bryston-BDP-2.lo-
cal ). With the IP address displayed, pressing the
LEFT button will display the units MAC address.
REMOTE TRIGGER
The TRIGGER IN and OUT connectors (3.5mm
2-conductor phone jacks) allow for implemen-
tation of a hard wired remote power ON/OFF
control. The INput can accept any DC voltage
between 3 and 12 volts DC and the input is polor-
ity insensitive as the input voltage is bridge recti-
fied. A minumum control voltage of 3Vdc @ 1mA
is required to trigger the unit ON. As soon as the
BDP-2 has powered up, whatever control voltage
is present at the IN jack will be connected to the
Trigger OUT jack via an isolated to allows for daisy
chaining several pieces of equipment to a single
remote control voltage signal .
DISPLAY BRIGHTNESS & AUTO SHUTOFF
To bring up a brightness and auto shutoff time de-
lay menu, press the UP and LEFT menu navi-
gation buttons in rapid succession. Use the UP
and DOWN buttons to switch between setting
the brightness (from 1 to 4) and the time delay
(from always on, 10 seconds, 1 minute, 5 minutes,
etc.) using the LEFT & RIGHT buttons. The
menu will dissappear approx. 10 seconds after the
last button press SYSTEM CONFIGURATIONS:

REMOTE POWER ON/OFF TRIGGER CON-
TROL:
The BDP-2 is equipped with two 3.5mm two
conductor phone jacks for implementing a
remote power On/Off function. Supplying a
DC control voltage between 3 and 12 volts (at
greater than or equal to approximately 1mA)
to the Trigger IN port will allow you to re-
motely power your BDP-2 on or off. Whatever
control voltage is applied to the IN port will
be routed to the OUT connector, via an iso-
lated relay, after the BDP-2 has fully powered
up. This OUT port can then be used to control
other devices that are similarly equipped. The
the Remote Trigger input takes precedence
over the front panel push-button switch and
as long as a valid control voltage is present at
the BDP-2’s Trigger IN port the unit cannot be
powered Off. See illustration on next page.
DATA PLATE: This label provides the units
exact model number, serial number, electrical
rating and date of manufacture. Do not re-
move.
IEC Power Inlet: The IEC-320 C14 power
inlet accepts IEC-320 C13 equipped power
cords. Use only appropriate power cords that
have been approved for your region.
BDP-2 DIGITAL PLAYER

MINIMAL SYSTEM CONFIGURATION
The minimal system configruation shown below
requires only a BDP-2, a BDA-1 (or BDA-2)digital-
to-analog converter, a Flash Drive, interconnect
cables and, of course, a sound system. The BDP-2
can operate as the hub of a completely indepen-
dent (i.e. free of any computer network) high
fidelity digital music system. In this minimal con-
figuration the front panel folder/file navigation
keys are used to select the files that are played.
EXPANDED SYSTEM CONFIGURATION
The EXPANDED SYSTEM CONFIGURATION shown
on the opposite page, includes a wide range of
remote control options. The only thing that is not
shown is the Remote Trigger (power on/off con-
trol) hookup.
Besides the BR2 infra-red remote control, which
is essentially a LOCAL control option since it
requires a line-of-sight between the remote and
the BDP-2, all other remote control methods are
NETWORK control options. Whether it is a per-
sonal computer, an iPod Touch or Android tablet
running appliations such as the mPod or Bryston’s
MINI and/or MAX web apps, all NETWORK control
methods require a hard wired Ethernet connec-
tion between the network’s router and the BDP-2
The iPod Touch, running the mPod application,
utilizes the iPod Touch’s Wifi connectivity to
interface with the personal computer network via
the network router, which must be a WiFi router
in this instance.
ESATA HARD DISC DRIVES
Although faster than USB interfaced HDD’s, eSATA
hard disk drives must be independently powered
when used with the BDP-2
USB HARD DISC DRIVES
USB hard disc drives can be are powered from
the USB port itself or can be independently pow-
ered.
DRIVE RECOMMENDATIONS
• Via its 6 USB ports, the BDP-2 can utilize
USB connected self powered drives (i.e.
hard disk drives that connect to via a USB
interface but are powered from their own
power supply or AC power adapter), USB
port powered hard disk drives or Thumb
drives (flash memory drives).
• Each USB port is limited to 500mA (½ amp)
of current on the BDP-2 so we do not rec-
ommend USB drives requiring more current
than 500ma’s be used if they are going to
be powered by the internal USB ports in the
BDP-2.

GLOSSARY
AES/EBU:
This digital audio standard is also called AES3 and was
published as part of IEC 60958. It is used for carrying
digital audio signals between devices. Developed by
the Audio Engineering Society (AES) and the European
Broadcasting Union (EBU) Several different physical
connectors are defined as part of the overall group of
standards. A balanced connection (IEC 60958 Type I)
uses 3 conductor, 110 ohm twisted pair cabling with
a 3 pin XLR connector (this is the variant used on the
BDP-2 and other Bryston products). See also SPDIF
which is a variant of the AES3 standard.
BONJOUR
Bonjour is a service discovery protocol. Bonjour locates
devices such as printers, the BDP-2 and other com-
puters, and the services that those devices offer on
a local network using multicast Domain Name System
service records. It is available as freeware from Apple
Inc. for personal computers running Apple or Windows
operating systems. It is usually pre-installed on Apple
computers but may have to be installed on some
Windows PC’s.
MPD (Music Player Daemon):
MPD is a server that plays music and provides a queue
and control for your music. It can can be controlled
through various clients locally and over the network with
TCP. It is a also music file decoder with various open
source audio input plug-ins and output plug-ins, using
multiple outputs simultaneously if requested. It is not
a full featured music player program. A version of MPD
is build into the BDP-2 but is limited to decoder, queue
and control functions. The current installed version of

BDP-2 DIGITAL PLAYER

Inc. for iPod Touch, iPad and iPhone. MPoD is a remote
control for MPD (Music Player Daemon). Note that
MPoD is not a stand-alone application: it will only work
in combination with MPD, and it doesn’t play music
itself. You can find out more about MPD at http://
www.musicpd.org. mPoD is essentially a front end for
MPD.
SB flash memory storage device also referred to as a
flash drive, memory stick, USB stick, etc.
USB HDD:
Universal Serial Bus Hard Disk Drive. May be powered
directly from the USB port (sometimes referred to as
self-powered) or by an external power supply.
eSATA HDD
A hard disk drive with an eSATA connector which is a
high speed serial ATA inferface and has higher transfer
speed than USB2.
SPDIF:
Sony/Philips Digital Interface or Sony/Philips Digital
Interconnection Format. It is both a data link layer proto-
col and a set of physical layer specifications for carrying
digital audio signals between devices and components
over either optical or electrical cable. The BDP-2 uses
BNC connectors which are intended to be used with 75
Ω coaxial cable. SPDIF is essentially an unbalanced
version of the AES/EBU format.
IP address
An Internet Protocol address (v4) is a 32 bit number
usually expressed as 4 bytes translated into decimal
numbers (e.g. 255.255.255.255) used for both identi-
fication and addressing of devices and nodes on the
network.
MAC Address
Media Access Control address is binary number used
as a unique identifier built into firmware or hardware. It
is usually shown as a group of 6 hexadecimal number
separated by colons (e.g. 01:23:45:67:89:AB). Each
BPD-1 has its own unique MAC address built into it.
Default Username & Password
The default username for BDP-2’s is bryston.
The default password is the same: bryston
RE-START PRODCEDURE
In the event that your DBP-2 is having reading
files from a USB thumb drive
1) If the unit is on, turn it off.
Unplug the USB drive from the BDP-2.
Power the BDP-2 back on.
After the BDP is done initializing it will display
the firmware revision followed by a pause
symbol () in the lower left corner. After a
short while this pause symbol will change to a
top symbol ().
2) Plug the USB thumb drive into the BDP-2 &
within a few seconds the stop symbol will
change to “U”. The “U” represents the BDP
reading the contents of the thumb drive. The
more files you have the longer it will take.
If there are fewer then a dozen songs the
update process may be so short that the “U”
never appears. If the USB thumb drive has
an led on it, the led should flicker during the
update process.
3) Once the update process is done you should
see the stop symbol reappear and the thumb

DIGITAL PLAYER (BDP) ERROR CODES
This article outlines meaning and troubleshooting steps of the various Error Codes that appear on the alpha-numeric
display on the front of the BDP. There are a total of four error codes that can appear on the BDP's display and are
generated by a microprocessor that is independent from the BDP's main processor board. The main processor runs the
Linux OS that plays music and handles other various tasks.
Error 03 will be displayed if the microprocessor doesn't detect voltage
on the BDP's built-in analog Power Supply Unit (PSU). This usually
occurs either due to a blown fuse (F1), so check the fuse for continuity or
if the toroidal power transformer (part of the power BDP's built-in power
supply) is unplugged. The toroidal transformer makes use of a four pin
connection on the primary side and a two pin connector on the secondary
side.
N.B. Before attempting to remove the fuse to check for continuity, either
visually or using a meter, turn off the unit and remove all cables from it,
especially the power cord.
Error 04 will be displayed if the microprocessor detects that the voltage
has sagged too low for the linear supply to generate the needed 12 volts
for the BDP's main board. This message will also appear during brown
outs. It is not uncommon to return home on hot summer days to find this
message here in Canada. Simply put during the summer our power grid
suffers from brown outs with all the central AC units running all day long.
A brown out usually lasts for only a fraction of second, but this is all it
takes to trip the microprocessor. A multi-meter generally won't show these
brown outs or dips in AC power because they are too brief to be captured
by general purpose meters. To catch a brown out you would need
something that can take reading quickly and record it much like a digital
storage oscilloscope.
The BDP's minimum line voltage for 120V and 240V
units are 100V and 190V respectively.
Error 05 will be displayed if the microprocessor detects that voltage is to
high for the linear power supply to handle, as if the linear regulator has an
upper limit as to what it can dissipate before it overheats and damages
itself. Again it is not overly uncommon for power spikes to occur once in a
while. Also, different regions have varying levels of power line regulation.
Power spikes generally behave much like brown outs so they also can't be
caught with something as simple as a multi-meter. The maximum input
voltage that the BDP will accept before triggering this error code for 120V
and 240V units are 128V and 254V respectively. the central AC units
running all day long. A brown out usually lasts for only a fraction of
second, but this is all it takes to trip the microprocessor. A multi-meter
generally won't show these brown outs or dips in AC power because they
are too brief to be captured by general purpose meters. To catch a brown
out you would need something that can take reading quickly and record it
much like a digital storage oscilloscope. The BDP's minimum line voltage
for 120V and 240V units are 100V and 190V respectively.
Error 9 is the only error message to not be triggered by power line
conditions. This message occurs if the microprocessor doesn't hear from
the main board running the Linux OS. The way this operates, when the
system is working as it should, is that the user triggers the BDP to turn on
(using the power button, BR-2 remote or 12v triggers) and this tells the
microprocessor to turn on the linear 12 volt power supply. This, in turn,
causes the main board to start the Linux OS. When the Linux OS is up a
running it sends its firmware revision to the microprocessor to be
displayed on the BDP's display. If the firmware revision is not received by
the microprocessor within two minutes of applying power, then the
microprocessor cuts power and displays the above message. When this
occurs there are a handful of things that you can check.

Error 9 continued:
Before taking anything apart check to see if your DAC receives lock at any point before the
message appears, if the DAC is receiving lock it will stop when the error code appears.
If the DAC does receive lock at any point during initialization then the Linux OS is starting up and
loading drivers, this tells us the most likely culprit is a loose serial cable. You should check to make
sure that the serial cable that connects the main-board to the microprocessor is connected and there
aren't any loose wires.
The picture above shows the BDP-2's serial cable (top) and the BDP-1's serial cable (bottom). You
should identify and follow this cable to both ends are connected.
If the DAC is not receiving lock then the problem is likely that the Linux OS isn't booting which could be caused by a
drive (simply unplug any drives and try turning on the unit) or and more likely a faulty CF card, if you feel technically
inclined follow the steps linked below to re-flash the CF card.

Licensing:
This product contains software protected by the GNU GPL license.
GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
Version 3, 29 June 2007
Copyright (C) 2007 Free Software Foundation, Inc. <http://fsf.org/>
Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
Preamble
The GNU General Public License is a free, copyleft license for
software and other kinds of works.
The licenses for most software and other practical works are designed
to take away your freedom to share and change the works. By contrast,
the GNU General Public License is intended to guarantee your freedom to
share and change all versions of a program--to make sure it remains free
software for all its users. We, the Free Software Foundation, use the
GNU General Public License for most of our software; it applies also to
any other work released this way by its authors. You can apply it to
your programs, too.
When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not
price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you
have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for
them if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it if you
want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it in new
free programs, and that you know you can do these things.
To protect your rights, we need to prevent others from denying you
these rights or asking you to surrender the rights. Therefore, you have
certain responsibilities if you distribute copies of the software, or if
you modify it: responsibilities to respect the freedom of others.
For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether
gratis or for a fee, you must pass on to the recipients the same
freedoms that you received. You must make sure that they, too, receive
or can get the source code. And you must show them these terms so they
know their rights.
Developers that use the GNU GPL protect your rights with two steps:
(1) assert copyright on the software, and (2) offer you this License
giving you legal permission to copy, distribute and/or modify it.
For the developers’ and authors’ protection, the GPL clearly explains
that there is no warranty for this free software. For both users’ and
authors’ sake, the GPL requires that modified versions be marked as
changed, so that their problems will not be attributed erroneously to
authors of previous versions.
Some devices are designed to deny users access to install or run
modified versions of the software inside them, although the manufacturer
can do so. This is fundamentally incompatible with the aim of
protecting users’ freedom to change the software. The systematic
pattern of such abuse occurs in the area of products for individuals to
use, which is precisely where it is most unacceptable. Therefore, we
have designed this version of the GPL to prohibit the practice for those
products. If such problems arise substantially in other domains, we
stand ready to extend this provision to those domains in future versions
of the GPL, as needed to protect the freedom of users.
Finally, every program is threatened constantly by software patents.
States should not allow patents to restrict development and use of
software on general-purpose computers, but in those that do, we wish to
avoid the special danger that patents applied to a free program could
make it effectively proprietary. To prevent this, the GPL assures that
patents cannot be used to render the program non-free.
The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and
modification follow.
TERMS AND CONDITIONS
0. Definitions.
“This License” refers to version 3 of the GNU General Public License.
“Copyright” also means copyright-like laws that apply to other kinds of
works, such as semiconductor masks.
“The Program” refers to any copyrightable work licensed under this
License. Each licensee is addressed as “you”. “Licensees” and
“recipients” may be individuals or organizations.
To “modify” a work means to copy from or adapt all or part of the work
in a fashion requiring copyright permission, other than the making of an
exact copy. The resulting work is called a “modified version” of the
earlier work or a work “based on” the earlier work.
A “covered work” means either the unmodified Program or a work based
on the Program.
To “propagate” a work means to do anything with it that, without
permission, would make you directly or secondarily liable for
infringement under applicable copyright law, except executing it on a
computer or modifying a private copy. Propagation includes copying,
distribution (with or without modification), making available to the
public, and in some countries other activities as well.
To “convey” a work means any kind of propagation that enables other
parties to make or receive copies. Mere interaction with a user through
a computer network, with no transfer of a copy, is not conveying.
An interactive user interface displays “Appropriate Legal Notices”
to the extent that it includes a convenient and prominently visible
feature that (1) displays an appropriate copyright notice, and (2)
tells the user that there is no warranty for the work (except to the
extent that warranties are provided), that licensees may convey the
work under this License, and how to view a copy of this License. If
the interface presents a list of user commands or options, such as a
menu, a prominent item in the list meets this criterion.
1. Source Code.
The “source code” for a work means the preferred form of the work
for making modifications to it. “Object code” means any non-source
form of a work.
A “Standard Interface” means an interface that either is an official
standard defined by a recognized standards body, or, in the case of
interfaces specified for a particular programming language, one that
is widely used among developers working in that language.
The “System Libraries” of an executable work include anything, other
than the work as a whole, that (a) is included in the normal form of
packaging a Major Component, but which is not part of that Major
Component, and (b) serves only to enable use of the work with that
Major Component, or to implement a Standard Interface for which an
implementation is available to the public in source code form. A
“Major Component”, in this context, means a major essential component
(kernel, window system, and so on) of the specific operating system
(if any) on which the executable work runs, or a compiler used to
produce the work, or an object code interpreter used to run it.
The “Corresponding Source” for a work in object code form means all
the source code needed to generate, install, and (for an executable
work) run the object code and to modify the work, including scripts to
control those activities. However, it does not include the work’s
System Libraries, or general-purpose tools or generally available free
programs which are used unmodified in performing those activities but
which are not part of the work. For example, Corresponding Source
includes interface definition files associated with source files for
the work, and the source code for shared libraries and dynamically
linked subprograms that the work is specifically designed to require,
such as by intimate data communication or control flow between those
subprograms and other parts of the work.
The Corresponding Source need not include anything that users
can regenerate automatically from other parts of the Corresponding
Source.
The Corresponding Source for a work in source code form is that
same work.
2. Basic Permissions.
All rights granted under this License are granted for the term of
copyright on the Program, and are irrevocable provided the stated

conditions are met. This License explicitly affirms your unlimited
permission to run the unmodified Program. The output from running a
covered work is covered by this License only if the output, given its
content, constitutes a covered work. This License acknowledges your
rights of fair use or other equivalent, as provided by copyright law.
You may make, run and propagate covered works that you do not
convey, without conditions so long as your license otherwise remains
in force. You may convey covered works to others for the sole purpose
of having them make modifications exclusively for you, or provide you
with facilities for running those works, provided that you comply with
the terms of this License in conveying all material for which you do
not control copyright. Those thus making or running the covered works
for you must do so exclusively on your behalf, under your direction
and control, on terms that prohibit them from making any copies of
your copyrighted material outside their relationship with you.
Conveying under any other circumstances is permitted solely under
the conditions stated below. Sublicensing is not allowed; section 10
makes it unnecessary.
3. Protecting Users’ Legal Rights From Anti-Circumvention Law.
No covered work shall be deemed part of an effective technological
measure under any applicable law fulfilling obligations under article
11 of the WIPO copyright treaty adopted on 20 December 1996, or
similar laws prohibiting or restricting circumvention of such
measures.
When you convey a covered work, you waive any legal power to forbid
circumvention of technological measures to the extent such circumvention
is effected by exercising rights under this License with respect to
the covered work, and you disclaim any intention to limit operation or
modification of the work as a means of enforcing, against the work’s
users, your or third parties’ legal rights to forbid circumvention of
technological measures.
4. Conveying Verbatim Copies.
You may convey verbatim copies of the Program’s source code as you
receive it, in any medium, provided that you conspicuously and
appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate copyright notice;
keep intact all notices stating that this License and any
non-permissive terms added in accord with section 7 apply to the code;
keep intact all notices of the absence of any warranty; and give all
recipients a copy of this License along with the Program.
You may charge any price or no price for each copy that you convey,
and you may offer support or warranty protection for a fee.
5. Conveying Modified Source Versions.
You may convey a work based on the Program, or the modifications to
produce it from the Program, in the form of source code under the
terms of section 4, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
a) The work must carry prominent notices stating that you modified
it, and giving a relevant date.
b) The work must carry prominent notices stating that it is
released under this License and any conditions added under section
7. This requirement modifies the requirement in section 4 to
“keep intact all notices”.
c) You must license the entire work, as a whole, under this
License to anyone who comes into possession of a copy. This
License will therefore apply, along with any applicable section 7
additional terms, to the whole of the work, and all its parts,
regardless of how they are packaged. This License gives no
permission to license the work in any other way, but it does not
invalidate such permission if you have separately received it.
d) If the work has interactive user interfaces, each must display
Appropriate Legal Notices; however, if the Program has interactive
interfaces that do not display Appropriate Legal Notices, your
work need not make them do so.
A compilation of a covered work with other separate and independent
works, which are not by their nature extensions of the covered work,
and which are not combined with it such as to form a larger program,
in or on a volume of a storage or distribution medium, is called an
“aggregate” if the compilation and its resulting copyright are not
used to limit the access or legal rights of the compilation’s users
beyond what the individual works permit. Inclusion of a covered work
in an aggregate does not cause this License to apply to the other
parts of the aggregate.
6. Conveying Non-Source Forms.
You may convey a covered work in object code form under the terms
of sections 4 and 5, provided that you also convey the
machine-readable Corresponding Source under the terms of this License,
in one of these ways:
a) Convey the object code in, or embodied in, a physical product
(including a physical distribution medium), accompanied by the
Corresponding Source fixed on a durable physical medium
customarily used for software interchange.
b) Convey the object code in, or embodied in, a physical product
(including a physical distribution medium), accompanied by a
written offer, valid for at least three years and valid for as
long as you offer spare parts or customer support for that product
model, to give anyone who possesses the object code either (1) a
copy of the Corresponding Source for all the software in the
product that is covered by this License, on a durable physical
medium customarily used for software interchange, for a price no
more than your reasonable cost of physically performing this
conveying of source, or (2) access to copy the
Corresponding Source from a network server at no charge.
c) Convey individual copies of the object code with a copy of the
written offer to provide the Corresponding Source. This
alternative is allowed only occasionally and noncommercially, and
only if you received the object code with such an offer, in accord
with subsection 6b.
d) Convey the object code by offering access from a designated
place (gratis or for a charge), and offer equivalent access to the
Corresponding Source in the same way through the same place at no
further charge. You need not require recipients to copy the
Corresponding Source along with the object code. If the place to
copy the object code is a network server, the Corresponding Source
may be on a different server (operated by you or a third party)
that supports equivalent copying facilities, provided you maintain
clear directions next to the object code saying where to find the
Corresponding Source. Regardless of what server hosts the
Corresponding Source, you remain obligated to ensure that it is
available for as long as needed to satisfy these requirements.
e) Convey the object code using peer-to-peer transmission, provided
you inform other peers where the object code and Corresponding
Source of the work are being offered to the general public at no
charge under subsection 6d.
A separable portion of the object code, whose source code is excluded
from the Corresponding Source as a System Library, need not be
included in conveying the object code work.
A “User Product” is either (1) a “consumer product”, which means any
tangible personal property which is normally used for personal, family,
or household purposes, or (2) anything designed or sold for incorporation
into a dwelling. In determining whether a product is a consumer product,
doubtful cases shall be resolved in favor of coverage. For a particular
product received by a particular user, “normally used” refers to a
typical or common use of that class of product, regardless of the status
of the particular user or of the way in which the particular user
actually uses, or expects or is expected to use, the product. A product
is a consumer product regardless of whether the product has substantial
commercial, industrial or non-consumer uses, unless such uses represent
the only significant mode of use of the product.
“Installation Information” for a User Product means any methods,
procedures, authorization keys, or other information required to install
and execute modified versions of a covered work in that User Product from
a modified version of its Corresponding Source. The information must
suffice to ensure that the continued functioning of the modified object
code is in no case prevented or interfered with solely because
modification has been made.

If you convey an object code work under this section in, or with, or
specifically for use in, a User Product, and the conveying occurs as
part of a transaction in which the right of possession and use of the
User Product is transferred to the recipient in perpetuity or for a
fixed term (regardless of how the transaction is characterized), the
Corresponding Source conveyed under this section must be accompanied
by the Installation Information. But this requirement does not apply
if neither you nor any third party retains the ability to install
modified object code on the User Product (for example, the work has
been installed in ROM).
The requirement to provide Installation Information does not include a
requirement to continue to provide support service, warranty, or updates
for a work that has been modified or installed by the recipient, or for
the User Product in which it has been modified or installed. Access to a
network may be denied when the modification itself materially and
adversely affects the operation of the network or violates the rules and
protocols for communication across the network.
Corresponding Source conveyed, and Installation Information provided,
in accord with this section must be in a format that is publicly
documented (and with an implementation available to the public in
source code form), and must require no special password or key for
unpacking, reading or copying.
7. Additional Terms.
“Additional permissions” are terms that supplement the terms of this
License by making exceptions from one or more of its conditions.
Additional permissions that are applicable to the entire Program shall
be treated as though they were included in this License, to the extent
that they are valid under applicable law. If additional permissions
apply only to part of the Program, that part may be used separately
under those permissions, but the entire Program remains governed by
this License without regard to the additional permissions.
When you convey a copy of a covered work, you may at your option
remove any additional permissions from that copy, or from any part of
it. (Additional permissions may be written to require their own
removal in certain cases when you modify the work.) You may place
additional permissions on material, added by you to a covered work,
for which you have or can give appropriate copyright permission.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, for material you
add to a covered work, you may (if authorized by the copyright holders of
that material) supplement the terms of this License with terms:
a) Disclaiming warranty or limiting liability differently from the
terms of sections 15 and 16 of this License; or
b) Requiring preservation of specified reasonable legal notices or
author attributions in that material or in the Appropriate Legal
Notices displayed by works containing it; or
c) Prohibiting misrepresentation of the origin of that material, or
requiring that modified versions of such material be marked in
reasonable ways as different from the original version; or
d) Limiting the use for publicity purposes of names of licensors or
authors of the material; or
e) Declining to grant rights under trademark law for use of some
trade names, trademarks, or service marks; or
f) Requiring indemnification of licensors and authors of that
material by anyone who conveys the material (or modified versions of
it) with contractual assumptions of liability to the recipient, for
any liability that these contractual assumptions directly impose on
those licensors and authors.
All other non-permissive additional terms are considered “further
restrictions” within the meaning of section 10. If the Program as you
received it, or any part of it, contains a notice stating that it is
governed by this License along with a term that is a further
restriction, you may remove that term. If a license document contains
a further restriction but permits relicensing or conveying under this
License, you may add to a covered work material governed by the terms
of that license document, provided that the further restriction does
not survive such relicensing or conveying.
If you add terms to a covered work in accord with this section, you
must place, in the relevant source files, a statement of the
additional terms that apply to those files, or a notice indicating
where to find the applicable terms.
Additional terms, permissive or non-permissive, may be stated in the
form of a separately written license, or stated as exceptions;
the above requirements apply either way.
8. Termination.
You may not propagate or modify a covered work except as expressly
provided under this License. Any attempt otherwise to propagate or
modify it is void, and will automatically terminate your rights under
this License (including any patent licenses granted under the third
paragraph of section 11).
However, if you cease all violation of this License, then your
license from a particular copyright holder is reinstated (a)
provisionally, unless and until the copyright holder explicitly and
finally terminates your license, and (b) permanently, if the copyright
holder fails to notify you of the violation by some reasonable means
prior to 60 days after the cessation.
Moreover, your license from a particular copyright holder is
reinstated permanently if the copyright holder notifies you of the
violation by some reasonable means, this is the first time you have
received notice of violation of this License (for any work) from that
copyright holder, and you cure the violation prior to 30 days after
your receipt of the notice.
Termination of your rights under this section does not terminate the
licenses of parties who have received copies or rights from you under
this License. If your rights have been terminated and not permanently
reinstated, you do not qualify to receive new licenses for the same
material under section 10.
9. Acceptance Not Required for Having Copies.
You are not required to accept this License in order to receive or
run a copy of the Program. Ancillary propagation of a covered work
occurring solely as a consequence of using peer-to-peer transmission
to receive a copy likewise does not require acceptance. However,
nothing other than this License grants you permission to propagate or
modify any covered work. These actions infringe copyright if you do
not accept this License. Therefore, by modifying or propagating a
covered work, you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so.
10. Automatic Licensing of Downstream Recipients.
Each time you convey a covered work, the recipient automatically
receives a license from the original licensors, to run, modify and
propagate that work, subject to this License. You are not responsible
for enforcing compliance by third parties with this License.
An “entity transaction” is a transaction transferring control of an
organization, or substantially all assets of one, or subdividing an
organization, or merging organizations. If propagation of a covered
work results from an entity transaction, each party to that
transaction who receives a copy of the work also receives whatever
licenses to the work the party’s predecessor in interest had or could
give under the previous paragraph, plus a right to possession of the
Corresponding Source of the work from the predecessor in interest, if
the predecessor has it or can get it with reasonable efforts.
You may not impose any further restrictions on the exercise of the
rights granted or affirmed under this License. For example, you may
not impose a license fee, royalty, or other charge for exercise of
rights granted under this License, and you may not initiate litigation
(including a cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that
any patent claim is infringed by making, using, selling, offering for
sale, or importing the Program or any portion of it.
11. Patents.
A “contributor” is a copyright holder who authorizes use under this
License of the Program or a work on which the Program is based. The
work thus licensed is called the contributor’s “contributor version”.
A contributor’s “essential patent claims” are all patent claims

owned or controlled by the contributor, whether already acquired or
hereafter acquired, that would be infringed by some manner, permitted
by this License, of making, using, or selling its contributor version,
but do not include claims that would be infringed only as a
consequence of further modification of the contributor version. For
purposes of this definition, “control” includes the right to grant
patent sublicenses in a manner consistent with the requirements of
this License.
Each contributor grants you a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free
patent license under the contributor’s essential patent claims, to
make, use, sell, offer for sale, import and otherwise run, modify and
propagate the contents of its contributor version.
In the following three paragraphs, a “patent license” is any express
agreement or commitment, however denominated, not to enforce a patent
(such as an express permission to practice a patent or covenant not to
sue for patent infringement). To “grant” such a patent license to a
party means to make such an agreement or commitment not to enforce a
patent against the party.
If you convey a covered work, knowingly relying on a patent license,
and the Corresponding Source of the work is not available for anyone
to copy, free of charge and under the terms of this License, through a
publicly available network server or other readily accessible means,
then you must either (1) cause the Corresponding Source to be so
available, or (2) arrange to deprive yourself of the benefit of the
patent license for this particular work, or (3) arrange, in a manner
consistent with the requirements of this License, to extend the patent
license to downstream recipients. “Knowingly relying” means you have
actual knowledge that, but for the patent license, your conveying the
covered work in a country, or your recipient’s use of the covered work
in a country, would infringe one or more identifiable patents in that
country that you have reason to believe are valid.
If, pursuant to or in connection with a single transaction or
arrangement, you convey, or propagate by procuring conveyance of, a
covered work, and grant a patent license to some of the parties
receiving the covered work authorizing them to use, propagate, modify
or convey a specific copy of the covered work, then the patent license
you grant is automatically extended to all recipients of the covered
work and works based on it.
A patent license is “discriminatory” if it does not include within
the scope of its coverage, prohibits the exercise of, or is
conditioned on the non-exercise of one or more of the rights that are
specifically granted under this License. You may not convey a covered
work if you are a party to an arrangement with a third party that is
in the business of distributing software, under which you make payment
to the third party based on the extent of your activity of conveying
the work, and under which the third party grants, to any of the
parties who would receive the covered work from you, a discriminatory
patent license (a) in connection with copies of the covered work
conveyed by you (or copies made from those copies), or (b) primarily
for and in connection with specific products or compilations that
contain the covered work, unless you entered into that arrangement,
or that patent license was granted, prior to 28 March 2007.
Nothing in this License shall be construed as excluding or limiting
any implied license or other defenses to infringement that may
otherwise be available to you under applicable patent law.
12. No Surrender of Others’ Freedom.
If conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or
otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot convey a
covered work so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this
License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you may
not convey it at all. For example, if you agree to terms that obligate you
to collect a royalty for further conveying from those to whom you convey
the Program, the only way you could satisfy both those terms and this
License would be to refrain entirely from conveying the Program.
13. Use with the GNU Affero General Public License.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, you have
permission to link or combine any covered work with a work licensed
under version 3 of the GNU Affero General Public License into a single
combined work, and to convey the resulting work. The terms of this
License will continue to apply to the part which is the covered work,
but the special requirements of the GNU Affero General Public License,
section 13, concerning interaction through a network will apply to the
combination as such.
14. Revised Versions of this License.
The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions of
the GNU General Public License from time to time. Such new versions will
be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to
address new problems or concerns.
Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the
Program specifies that a certain numbered version of the GNU General
Public License “or any later version” applies to it, you have the
option of following the terms and conditions either of that numbered
version or of any later version published by the Free Software
Foundation. If the Program does not specify a version number of the
GNU General Public License, you may choose any version ever published
by the Free Software Foundation.
If the Program specifies that a proxy can decide which future
versions of the GNU General Public License can be used, that proxy’s
public statement of acceptance of a version permanently authorizes you
to choose that version for the Program.
Later license versions may give you additional or different
permissions. However, no additional obligations are imposed on any
author or copyright holder as a result of your choosing to follow a
later version.
15. Disclaimer of Warranty.
THERE IS NO WARRANTY FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY
APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT
HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE PROGRAM “AS IS” WITHOUT
WARRANTY
OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO,
THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE
PROGRAM
IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST
OF
ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
16. Limitation of Liability.
IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING
WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MODIFIES AND/OR
CONVEYS
THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES,
INCLUDING ANY
GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF
THE
USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS
OF
DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR
THIRD
PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER
PROGRAMS),
EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY
OF
SUCH DAMAGES.
17. Interpretation of Sections 15 and 16.
If the disclaimer of warranty and limitation of liability provided
above cannot be given local legal effect according to their terms,
reviewing courts shall apply local law that most closely approximates
an absolute waiver of all civil liability in connection with the
Program, unless a warranty or assumption of liability accompanies a
copy of the Program in return for a fee.
