I. Getting StartedThe Media Control Server (MCS) is designed to run on a computer that is equipped withWindows XP Home Service Pack 2 or Vista Service Pack 1. It should have 1 GB RAM andat least a 1 GHz x86 based processor. It is recommended that you dedicate a computeror server to get the best performance as a NuVoNet audio source. The PC that runs theMCS will be referred to as the host PC.The Music Port Client can then be installed on any of the home's networked PCs ortouch screens for music control. The Music Port Client provides the ability to controlaudio playback in any zone in the home.II. Hardware Installation of the Music PortMaking the Audio Connections (Fig. 1)PC sound cards typically use a stereo mini, 3.5mm audio jack. The Music Port allowsaccess to stereo, 5.1 or 7.1 surround audio cards on the host PC as multipleindependent stereo audio streams. Use a 3.5mm to RCA cable to connect the PC'saudio outputs to the appropriate source inputs on theGrand Concerto or Essentia E6G.If you are going to use a 5.1 sound card, for example to convert the PC into a three-output music server, you will have to make three connections. You would connect theFront Left/Right (L/R) jack to one source input on the amplifier, Surround Left/Right(LS/RS) to a second input, and Center/Low Frequency Effects (C/LFE) to a third input.Consult the documentation for your particular sound card to determine which audiojack corresponds to which pair of channels. Once the connections are made, make noteof which sound card output is connected to which amplifier source input, as thisinformation will be needed when configuring the Media Control Server.3 |
