Chapter 2. Preparations and Setting Up

2. Connect the power adapter cable to the player's DC 12V power port.

cable retainer for preventing the power cable from being disconnected accidentally.

See Diagram 2-1.

4. Plug the AC power cord into a power outlet and the Power LED will light up.

Warning:

Only use the power adapter packaged with the DSA-2100A. Using a different power

adapter could damage the device.

Connect your display to the Digital Signage Player's DVI port with the DVI cable that came

with your display. Consult your display's user manual for cabling specifications.

(D-sub 15-pin) connector through a DVI-I-to-VGA adaptor.

3. If the Composite or S-Video video output is to use, you need to change the player's

configuration setting with the DSA Configurator. See Section 4.4.3.
