MP80 Setup
The media player should be located in a well ventilated air-conditioned space for best
operation. The overall dimensions of the units are 3.2” x 7.1” x 1.1”. The mounting dimensions
given below are measured from center to center of the mounting holes. The mounting holes
will accommodate a #6 screw.
The unit has ventilation holes on the top of the chassis. These should remain uncovered during
operation. There are no ventilation openings on the bottom of the chassis, so it may be bolted
directly to a shelf or monitor.

Connections
The MP80 is capable of driving a wide variety of displays at up to 4K
resolution at bit rates up to 40 Mbps. You must have a SD card installed in
the unit to enable playback of local content. Connect the following cables
to operate the unit.
Display cable – Use a good quality HDMI cable to connect between the
MP80 and the intended display. The HDMI cable length should
generally be less than 10 feet in length for best operation. HDMI
Input will accept 1080P signals.
Audio cable – The audio output is integrated into the HDMI signal and is
available on the L&R 3.5mm jack, as well as Optical.
Network cable – Certain operations require a network connection in
order to implement. Connect an Ethernet cable between the
MP80 10/100 port and a local Ethernet switch. Alternatively,
you may connect the player to a WiFi network by conguring
the WiFi parameters in Settings (you will need a USB mouse to
access this menu). The WiFi antenna must be connected in order
for this to work. You will need to congure the WiFi Settings for
the local access point.
Power – Insert the DC power plug into the MP80. Plug the power supply
into a 120VAC outlet.
USB – 2 USB ports are available for auxiliary devices and USB drives.
GPIO – There are eight ports available for connecting external push
buttons and LED lights. Contact CE labs for buttons.
Please wait for approximately one minute until the unit completes the bootup process. If default startup content has been dened and content is on
