Concepts
Cisco Digital Media System (Cisco DMS) is a family of
products and technologies, including the ones that this
guide describes. A Digital Media Player (DMP) is a
compact, solid state, addressable network device that delivers
digital signage content and enterprise TV content to a DMP
display—which is an LCD Professional Series display
or any other directly attached television screen, monitor, or
projector (analog or digital, standard-definition or
high-definition) that shows media to an audience. You can
enclose your DMP inside a protective case that discourages
tampering and prevents theft. The protective case is sold
separately. Digital Media Player Device Manager
(DMPDM) is a web-based graphical user interface to configure
one DMP during its initial setup, to manage one DMP in
isolation, and to deliver your media to one DMP display.
DMPDM is served from the DMP that it manages. System
administrators, content managers, and graphic designers use a
Digital Media Manager (DMM) software module called
DMM-DSM to centrally manage their network of DMP
devices, organize and bind assets together for signage, design
layouts, and deliver media to DMP displays. Features of the
separately licensed DMM-ETV software module help you to
deliver VoDs and live television broadcasts over IP networks,
configure an on-screen electronic program guide (EPG), manage
subscriptions to EPG data provider services, and program the
remote control for DMPs, which is sold separately.

1 Requirements and Limitations
Cisco Digital Media Player (DMP) 4400G devices, and 4305G
devices after July 2008, are compatible with a remote control
that is sold separately. Its features require that your DMPs use
firmware release 5.0 or later and that your Cisco Digital Media
Manager (DMM) appliances use DMM software release 5.0 or
later. If you are upgrading from an earlier release of Cisco DMS,
you can log in to your Cisco.com account, and then download
the required software and firmware at
http://tools.cisco.com/support/downloads/pub/Redirect.x?mdfid=
281723656.
Most DMM features that this guide describes, which respond to
the remote control, are licensed features that must be installed
and configured on your DMM appliance and enabled on your
DMPs. To learn about the DMM features that you can license
and install, see http://www.cisco.com/go/dms.
A printed copy of this guide (Remote Control Quick Start Guide
for Cisco Digital Media Players) is included in the product kit
with each DMP remote control. Alternatively, you can read this
guide on Cisco.com.

Four Unlicensed Buttons
Four buttons on your remote control are free of licensing
restrictions and work without limitation. These buttons are
Mute, Power, Show IP, and Volume. See Using the Secondary
Buttons, page 13.
2 Overview: The Battery
Caution Important safety warnings, notices, and guidelines
apply to the battery in your DMP remote control.
See the “Statement 330—Lithium Battery
Warning” section of Regulatory Compliance and
Safety Information for the Cisco Digital Media
Player Remote Control. A printed copy of this
guide is included in the product kit with each DMP.
Alternatively, you can read it on Cisco.com.
Your DMP remote control is battery-powered. It uses a
standard, 3V CR2025 lithium battery, manufactured by a
well-known supplier such as Panasonic or Toshiba. The name of
the actual manufacturer is etched into the face of the battery.
Page 7

If the battery loses its charge or if you remove the battery, your
DMP remote control will not work until the battery is replaced.
You should always recycle or dispose of the battery in
accordance with:
• Its manufacturer guidelines.
• Regulations in your locale for disposal and recycling.
Remote control settings are not lost when you remove or replace
the battery.

3 Replacing the Battery
Whenever it is necessary to replace the lithium battery in your
DMP remote control:
Step 1 Place the remote control on a flat surface, button-side
down.
Step 4 Insert a new battery so that positive charge (+) symbols
are visible simultaneously on the battery and the clip.
Step 5 Slide the clip back in to the remote control.
Step 2 To unlock the “BATT” clip
and remove it, do these two
things simultaneously:
• Pinch the locking
mechanism to unlock it.
• Slide the clip out of the
remote control.
Step 3 To remove the old battery
from the clip, pivot the
battery so that it touches only
the opening of the clip.

1. Audio volume levels that you set for a DMP might differ from, or
conflict with, the audio volume levels that you set for other attached
devices. Muting one such device, for example, will not necessarily mute
all of the others. To avoid disruptions at your site (such as the
disruptions that unintentionally loud audio might cause), use care when
you adjust volume settings.
