If you will deploy your DMP at a physical location that does not have a DHCP server and you must configure your DMP to use a static IP address, complete the “Preconfiguring Your DMP To Run Without a Local DHCP Server” procedure in the user guide on Cisco.com for the version of DMPDM that you use: h

Step 2 Plug the other end of the Ethernet cable into a network hub, network switch, or router that participates in a DHCP network. 4 Connecting to a DMP Display We recommend that you use a digital display, not analog. For the type of digital display, we recommend LCD, not plasma. Digital signage uses static images more often than it uses full-motion video. Most often, content is web-based or animated in Flash. The nature of these media types means that some pixels are not updated freque

Step 1 Assemble the DMP power cord: a. Identify the correct plug type for your region (U.S., E.U., U.K., or Australia). b. Snap that plug into the AC adapter. Step 2 Connect the DC barrel connector to the 5V DC power supply on the DMP chassis. Step 3 Connect to an AC electrical outlet that you know is grounded, and that uses the correct voltage level for your locale. Supported levels range from 100V to 240V. To protect your DMP from electrical surges, we recommend that you use a surge pr

The LEDs tell you if your DMP has power and if it has obtained an IP address. A solid green LED indicates that a power source is available. A solid red LED indicates that your DMP is trying to obtain an IP address. After your DMP has an IP address, it turns off the red LED. The LEDs do not blink unless they are exposed to infrared signal interference. 7 Logging in to DMPDM and Changing its Passwords Step 1 When your DMP display shows the Cisco logo and shows an IP address for your

DMP Service Account is a user account with FTP login privileges. (The DMP Service Account account is available only when the FTP service is enabled on a DMP.) Alternatively, if you have many DMPs and will manage them centrally, you can use the fully licensed DMM-DSM software on your DMM appliance to change both of these passwords globally for all of the DMPs that you have added to a DMP group. Before you can use DMM-DSM in this way, however, you must first complete the “Setting Up Centr
