Principle of Operation
The HDMP-S100 Digital Signage Player is a hardware MPEG-1/2/4 video decoder with
network connectivity. Contents intended to be played on the HDMP-S100 Digital Signage
Player will need to be converted into MPEG-1/2/4 formats before they are played back.
When properly connected to a network (LAN or WAN) or via direct connection to a
personal computer with a network patch (cross-over) cable, the HDMP-S100 can be
configured with a standard web browser. Once configured, the device can,
1. Connect to an Adfotain Central Management Server (subscribed separately, fees may
apply, please refer to Appendix B) for global, hierarchical, web-based management
(WAN mode). By utilizing WAN mode operation, a robust and scalable digital signage
service can be setup under different network conditions (ie. Different network
infrastructure, locations, firewall settings), monitoring hardware heartbeat conditions
and managing schedules ensuring timely delivery of media contents.
2. Or, playback media contents with the built-in control scripts language (see Appendix A)
for small-scale digital signage needs (LAN mode). By using LAN mode operation, a
simple non-hierarchical type of digital signage network can be setup quickly with
simple scheduling and file management.
Configurable Options
The HDMP-S100 has a built-in web interface allowing you to change configuration options
via a web browser. Key in IP address on web browser you can see below login page. The
default login account name is “admin” and the default password is “digiSignage” without
