If you are installing the Music Port with a Renovia System, plug the CAT5 directly into one of the three “NuVoNet”inputs on the back panel of the
Renovia Source Hub, Fig. 3.

RS232 Connection
A DB9 cable connection is needed between the Music Port and the attached NuVo System to enable full integration of the Music Port. Most often,
this control is the iPhone/iPad app or the network computer Client interface, but it is also important if you are controlling through one of the home
automation control modules. These are currently available for AMX, Crestron and URC from the NuVo Website Dealer Resource Center, Fig. 4. A
passthrough port is available to allow serial control to pass to the common RS232 port on the NuVo System.
II. Accessing the Remote Configuration Tool
The Remote Configuration Tool is a quick, easy setup for the operation of the Music Port. Once configured, it will be fully operational with any of the
NuVoNet Audio Distribution Systems.
Make sure the NV-MPS4 is plugged in, powered on, and connected to the home’s router through its “Ethernet”port. A live Internet connection will
cause the port LED’s to light green, Fig. 5. It is suggested that you use the white CAT5 cable for this purpose to avoid confusing it with the NuVoNet
cables.
