100V-220V Power Connection
The IEC power socket enables either UL/CSA approved
110V power cords or CE approved 220V power cables to
be used with the DMS-100. The internal power supply
automatically switches from 100V to 240V.
Network Connection
A 10/100 LAN connection ensures that the DMS-100 will
receive all network streams from other DMS or SNP sources.
IR In for 1-Way RF Remotes and Base Stations
When connected to a URC RF base station, a one-way URC
remote control can be programmed to control a zone.

System Configuration for Internal LAN Network
Follow the steps below to connect a DMS-100 to a LAN network.
1. Connect the Internet to the coaxial CABLE port in the rear of the
cable modem.
2. Plug in a RJ-45 ethernet connector cable via the Ethernet port of
the cable modem to the WAN port of the Router.
3. Connect a second RJ-45 cable to a LAN port of the Router and
plug the other end to the LAN 10/100 port on the rear of the
MFS-8/MFSPOE-8 network Switch.
4. Connect a third RJ-45 cable to connect the DMS-100 LAN port to
one of the eight 10/100 Smart ports.
5. Plug the power supply to the DMS-100 and then plug it in to an
unswitched AC outlet.
6. Connect a PC computer to the same LAN as the DMS-100 or plug
an ethernet cable directly to the LAN port of the DMS-100. Now
the computer can control and adjust the manufacturer’s audio
control program.
