PC REQUIREMENTS (FOR BASIC SERVER)
Operating System: Any Windows

or Linux OS capable of running a web server

Processor: Intel

Pentium

4, 1 GHz or higher (or compatible microprocessor)

Memory: 512 MB RAM or more

TWO MODES OF OPERATION
STANDALONE
Standalone setup allows the NMP-530 to act as an independent network device to display content on a
Plasma Display Panel (PDP) or a Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) for digital signage or narrowcasting
applications. Content can come from either the remote server or local storage on the NMP-530.
TAS MANAGED
You can purchase TAS separately through Tivella (www.tivella.com or a Tivella dealer/reseller). A
TAS server should be used to configure and manage multiple NMP-530s remotely. TAS provides
centralized scheduling of video content presentation on multiple NMP-530s, as well as management
and seamless operation of a Cisco

ACNS Content Distribution Networking infrastructure if one is

installed. This configuration greatly reduces maintenance overhead, when TAS and the NMP-530 are
connected to the network (LAN/WAN) with the TAS acting as a manager for multiple NMP-530s.

APPENDIX
COMPLIANCE AND SAFETY NOTICES
FCC CLASS B COMPLIANCE NOTICE (UNITED STATES)
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device,
pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection
against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This
equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and
used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio
communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful
interference in which case the user will be required to correct the interference at users own
expense.
You can determine whether your equipment is causing interference by turning it off. If the
interference stops, it was probably caused by this equipment or one of its peripheral devices. If
the equipment causes interference to radio or television reception, try to correct the interference
by using one or more of the following measures:
Turn the television or radio antenna until the interference stops.
Move the equipment to one side or the other of the television or radio.
Move the equipment farther away from the television or radio.
Plug the equipment into an outlet that is on a different circuit from the television or radio.
(That is, make certain the equipment and the television or radios are on circuits controlled
by different circuit breakers or fuses.)
Modifying the equipment without proper authorization may result in the equipment no longer
complying with FCC requirements for Class A or Class B digital devices. In that event, your right
to use the equipment may be limited by FCC regulations, and you may be required to correct any
interference to radio or television communications at your own expense.
