Operation
The DV75N high definition digital signage player is
capable of playing back full-motion HD 1080P audio &
video clips from its INTERNAL SDHC card.(default
4GB). Content is updated by inserting a USB FLASH
drive containing the content. This content can be updated
manually through a MENU choice or automatically by
using a command.txt text file (see page 2).
Initial Start-up
Upon start-up, the player will be set to 1280x720 VGA
output and will display the words “LOADING NOW..”
on the screen. Once initialized it will switch to its default
output (HDMI or VGA as chosen on the
VIDEO/AUDIO menu) and begin playing the content
based on the DSP MODE.
Setting the video output (VMODE button)
The default output on the DV75N is VGA, but the output
can be changed within the VIDEO/AUDIO menu or by
pressing the VMODE button on the remote. Pressing
VMODE button will toggle through the three outputs on
the player (Composite, VGA1280x720 and HDMI480p).
DSP (Digital Signage Playback) Mode
There are two main modes that are set in the BASIC
menu –STANDARD and INTERACTIVE. Within
INTERACTIVE there are three modes (STANDBY,
REPEAT, MENU or CONTINUE) and these are set in
the ADVANCED menu (see page 3). The default is
INTERACTIVE-REPEAT unless players are pre-
configured for Ethernet MultiSynch (ESYNCH) mode
prior to shipping.
Updating Content from a USB2.0 Flash Drive
MANUAL UPDATE:
To update the content manually, insert the USB2.0
Flash drive into the DV75N and press MENU on the
remote. Once the MAIN MENU is shown, select
“BASIC” from the MENU. On the BASIC menu
there are two choices for copying files:
USB SYNCH: Will erase the internal SD card and
copy all the contents off the USB. The only files on
the USB should be the media files -if there are
any other files or directories on the card (i.e. Mac
.dsstore or ._ trash files), the DV75N will still try
to play them.
USB COPY: Will copy all files to the SD card.
AUTOMATIC UPDATE (command.txt):
To have the USB content automatically update the
internal SDHC card, when inserted into the DV75N,
you must include a command.txt text file on the USB
flash drive with one for the following commands on
the first line:
“copycontents”, identical to the USB COPY
“updateall”, same as USB SYNCH
“updatecontents”, only new VALID media content
on the USB will be copied and any files not being
used on the SDHC card will be erased.
Filenames
The DV75N, sorts its files alphabetically for
playback. Even though it is not necessary, we
recommend that (with DSP mode set to MENU) the
“menu file” be named, for example, “000.mpg” and
that the other files be named “001.mpg”, ”002.mp3”,
“003.jpg” etc. This makes it easy to remember what
file is to be played on the button press.

parameters for attaching the DV75N to a LAN or
WLAN. IF using a WLAN you MUST DISABLE the
LAN.

protocol or Ethernet control –IP address and network
port#)
DSP (player) MODES:
STANDBY uses an external controller -plays file
(button press) and then goes into standby mode.
REPEAT uses an external controller -continues to
repeat all the files and will play file (button press). Files
named “000” will be ignored.

Start-up Troubleshooting
If, after a minute you notice the “SD” LED on the
front of the DV75N is flashing but there is nothing
being displayed, there is a very good chance that the
current video output is not set to the one you are
connected to. Press the <VMODE> button, to toggle
the player’s output, until you see the
CONFIGURATION MENU. You can then select
VIDEO/AUDIO to set the proper output resolution.
NOTE: Any video settings in the DSPCONFIG.TXT
text file will override manual settings.
If you are in ESYNCH mode, the screens are black
and the SD light is not blinking, make sure all the
players are connected via the Ethernet switcher, and
that the LAN (or WLAN) LEDs are lit. You can also
press the <MENU> button on the remote and then
select LAN (or WLAN) to confirm that network
settings are correct and that each player has a
different IP address. You can also then go to the
ADVANCED menu and confirm the Multisync
settings:
[ ] Controller IP is the same for all players.
[ ] Number of Players is correct.
