How to Setup Your DS-2 Player with the AD+Sign App

AD+Sign App

Setting up the AD+Sign DS-2

Before we begin

Make sure that:

  • Your DS-2 Player is connected according to the recommended diagram and ready for use
  • Your DS-2 Player is either connected to a wired network or will have access to a wireless network
  • The AD+Sign App is downloaded on your mobile device
  • Your device has access to the same IP network as the DS-2 will be connected to

Starting Setup

  1. Power your connected display or TV and select the correct video input
    • With the DS-2 powered off, you will likely see a 'No Signal' warning on the display - this is normal.
  2. Power the DS-2 and wait for the product to fully load, observing the status on your connected display. When ready, the DS-2 will ask you to set up the device using either the AD+Sign app or a mouse and keyboard.

The first boot of a brand new DS-2 may take up to 2 minutes to fully initialise and configure runtime data. You may see a blank screen during this time.

If you are using an Ethernet wired network and you're not using a static IP address, the DS-2’s IP address will be shown.

If you are using WiFi, or the network has no DHCP server, you will see a message indicating that the DS-2 is not connected to the network yet. This is normal.

In the App

  1. Start the AD+Sign app and navigate to the 'Players' page.
  2. On the Players page, click the Add Player button and choose the Setup New Player option

    • Ensure you select the correct Player Mode
