Button Control Functions

Volume is controlled using up/down push-buttons connected to ports 1 and 2 of
the 1707 controller. A push-button is used to select each product (up to six). A
silent video attract mode plays by default when no buttons are pressed.

• Volume Up and Down: Select buttons used to increase or decrease volume.

• Demonstration: To start a demo, press a product select button (3-8), the
demo starts and the button remains lit.

Installation

• Attach the 1707 to a at surface with the screws provided.

• Connect an Ethernet cable (Cat5, Cat5e, or Cat6) from the Model 1707
Network RJ45 jack to an open port on a router (not included). The wired
router must provide multiple x 10/100Mbps LAN ports, and manage
DHCP assignments.

• Connect an HDMI® cable from the 1707 HDMI port to an HDMI display.

• Connect two push-buttons for volume adjustment (position 1 is volume
down, position 2 is volume up) and one push-button for each product (up
to six, positions 3 through 8). Push-buttons should be four-wire momentary
switches, and can be illuminated (2 - 5 volt LED).

• Connect power supply to AC power, then to the 1707 power port.

Conguration

After the initial startup screens, the Audio Authority® Media System Model

1707 screen prompts the installer to “press volume down button to reset

conguration”. The “demo conguration is reset” message displays and a
countdown to zero occurs. The 1707 begins “detecting devices” and each
unmapped device causes a prompt “press a demo button” to assign its
product position. Press a push-button to assign a product to a position. After
mapping all devices, the “initializing devices” message displays and the silent
attract demonstration video starts. The system is ready for operation.

Content interaction depends on naming the les using the convention
shown below, and placing them on a USB thumb drive (PC setup only, not
Macintosh compatible). Place a separate video MP4 le and an MP3 audio
le extracted from that video (using a utility such as VLC) on the USB drive
for each product position. Video 0 (zero) is the silent attract video for drawing
walk-up trafc, no mp3 audio le is necessary.
