Connecting the SMM100 to the Network

Installation of the SMM100 requires three steps:

1.

Install and connect hardware.

2.

Set up the folder you have stored music in as a shared folder.

3.

Use the DigiLinX Dealer Setup program to configure the DigiLinX system to
recognize the SMM100 (this is covered in Chapter 15 of the DigiLinX Dealer
Setup Manual
found on the NetStreams web site

www.netstreams.com

on the Dealer

Documents page).

You can have a DigiLinX only network or you can combine your home computer
network with DigiLinX so that the SMM100 can access the music source (computer,
USB storage device, or NAS drive).

The IP addressing and subnet masking schema of the DigiLinX network and the home
network must match for the SMM100 to find network shared music on the home
network.

If you want to connect DigiLinX to your existing home network, see Figure 14-2.
