How to Setup Your DS-2 Player with a USB Mouse

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.

Using a USB Mouse

  1. Connect a USB mouse to the USB ports of the DS-2.
  2. Using the mouse cursor, click on the 'Setup using USB Mouse / Keyboard' button shown on the connected display
  3. The DS-2 will display the option to use Cloud Connected mode. Click the 'Continue' button.
  4. On the next screen set a name for the DS-2 and a 6-digit PIN, then click the 'Continue' button.

  5. Click the 'Finish' button to start the main DS-2 App.
    If you are using an wired Ethernet connection and you have not set a static IP address, your DS-2 setup is now complete and you can skip the remaining steps.
  6. Using the mouse, click anywhere on the screen to reveal the DS-2 app menu.
  7. Click the 'DS-2 Settings' option and enter your 6-digit PIN.
