4 Managing your player with Adfotain Manager Express 

Once you have configured settings for your signage player and display system, you are ready to load 
content into the player for playback on a schedule.  

4.1 Management options using Adfotain Manager Express 

You have the following playback options when using Adfotain Manager Express: 

Looping playback 

You can select files, re-order them, and export via LAN, USB drive, or CF card for auto-repeating 
playback. 

Weekly schedule playback 

This mode plays specific files exported via LAN, USB drive, or CF card at specific times of the week. 

Please refer to the 

Adfotain Manager Express User’s Manual

 on content scheduling and publishing 

functions of your HMP-505S. 

4.2 Using the HMP-505S without an Ethernet network 

You can use the HMP-505S in areas without Ethernet connections by synchronizing contents from a 
USB device.  

1.

 

From Adfotain Manager Express, export your scheduled programming to a USB drive (in contrast 
to the Export to network option).  

2.

 

Insert the drive to the USB port of the HMP-505S.  

3.

 

Pay attention to the instructions displayed on screen. Contents will update in the background 
without interrupting your previous program, if there is a program already playing.  

4.

 

After the update is completed (from minutes to hours, depending on file size), the device will 
reboot and start to play the new program.  

5.

 

Remove USB drive.
