QUICK SETUP GUIDE

This simple guide will help you get started with your M50.

CONNECT FOR SOUND 

 

Using corresponding cable connectors (not supplied), connect M50’s 
DIGITAL AUDIO ports to corresponding digital audio input of receivers, 
home theater systems or digital processors.

CONNECT TO NETWORK 

 

Using an Ethernet cable (not supplied), connect one end to M50’s LAN 
port and the other end directly to your Wired home network or router.  

Alternatively, the M50 can also be connected by Wireless connection. See 
succeeding section about “CONNECT TO WiFi”.

CONNECT TO POWER 

The M50 comes supplied with two separate AC power cords. Select the AC 
power cord appropriate for your region.

Before connecting the AC power cord’s plug to the wall outlet, connect 
firmly first the other end of the AC power cord to M50’s AC Mains input 
socket. 

Set the POWER switch at the rear panel to ON and then press the front 
panel Standby button. 

Out of the box and the M50 powered up for the first time, the M50 will 
have its initial reboot process that will end with the VFD showing

NOTES

 

Never force the plug into a wall outlet. An adaptor may be necessary in 
certain regions.

 

Always disconnect first from the wall outlet the AC power cord’s plug, 
before disconnecting the other end of the AC power cord from the M50’s 
AC Mains input socket.

CONNECT TO WIFI 

Connect the supplied wireless antenna to M50’s WiFi antenna terminal 
at the rear panel. Set the rear panel POWER switch to ON.

IMPORTANT!

 

For wireless connection to be established, ensure that the supplied 
wireless antenna is installed and Wireless (WiFi) broadband router with 
broadband internet connection is setup and available. 

Use your iPad (not provided) to search for the WiFi network matching 
your M50’s unique network ID and join it.

For example:

 “M50-0064” where “0064” are the last four numbers of the 

unique Internet MAC identifier of your M50. You can check your M50’s 
unique Internet MAC identifier by undertaking the following steps

Press front panel’s MENU button.
