When you take the equipment from a cold condition into a much warmer and humid
condition, the equipment should be acclimated to the warm and humidity condition for at least 30
minutes. Powering up a non-acclimated unit may lead to shortcut or other damage to electronic
components.
A professional UPS system is recommended for better performance of your content
distribution system.

Factory network settings of the Management Port:
IP address 192.168.1.98
Subnet Mask 255.255.255.0
Gateway 192.168.1.1
Use the following step to access the Web GUI in a browser.
Connect both DMP900’s management port and the computer’s Ethernet port to a switch by
CAT5 straight-through cables. If you do not have a switch, you can connect the computer
directly to DMP900’s management port.
Set the IP address of the laptop/computer in the same network with the DMP900 management
IP address. For example, you can set the computer’s IP address to 192.168.1.98.
Check the physical connection via Command Prompt (Try to click the Windows Menu Icon in
the corner of the desktop, and hit “CMD “, then press “Enter”, you will open the Command
Prompt). Type “ping 192.168.1.98” or “ping 192.168.1.98 –t” and press “Enter” to check reply
status. Stable and constant replies from 192.168.1.98 (management computer’s IP address)
indicate a reliable physical connection. See the following image.

3.2.2 Configuring Input
Before configuring the input, please plug in an input cable with valid signals.
Steps to configure ASI input:
1. Go to Module configuration > ASI, set Port 1 and Port 2 as input ports. Click Apply before you
go to the next step. Then two input ports are available in ASI module. See the following image.
2. Go to Service Configuration. Right click the TS1 under Board6 [ASI] on the left of this page.
3. Click Scan TS (DVB) or Scan TS (ATSC) to search the input.
Before you configure input, go to Equipment Configuration > System, and set the Output
TS Standard. By default, it is DVB. See 3.2.5

Batch Scan is really a convenient function especially used to search multiple TSIP input
channels. So you do not have to do it one by one. Note before you use this function, please go to
Status > TSIP and verify all the input channels you are going to batch scan present input bitrates.
Delete the input TS
See the image above. The Clear TS option is right under Batch Scan. If you have an input TS
scanned, you will see the services and PID included in this TS. Right-click on the TS, and click
Clear TS to delete a scanned TS.
Bypass the input TS
Right-click an input TS and click Bypass TS to pass it to the output. The bypassed TS will not be
multiplexed. See the following image, a *[Bypass TS] follows the scanned TS1 as a mark.
To configure the input of other modules, follow the similar steps as how you configure ASI and
TSIP input. Summary of the steps:
1. Connect input cables
2. Open input channels and set input parameters.
3. Scan TS
4. Click Apply
