Start up and shut down the host 

2.1 Start up the host 

1)

 

Use the RCA or XLR cables to connect the host to an amplifier (see “ANALOG OUTPUT” 
and “XLR OUTPUT” on the rear panel). 

2)

 

Connect the host and the wireless network adapter

 (see 3.1).

 

3)

 

Use  the  power  cable  to  connect  the  host  to  the  power  supply  (see  “IEC  POWER 
OUTLET” on the rear panel). 

4)

 

Once all necessary connections are made, find the power switch located above the IEC 
POWER SOCKET on the rear panel and switch it to the “on” position. Now the host is 
standby mode.   

5)

 

Wait for about 5 seconds; press the round “STANDBY/ON” button to turn on the host. 
which is indicated by a white light on the front panel. 

2.2 Shut down the host 

It  is  highly  recommended  to  shut  down  the  host  by  tapping  "shut  down  music  server" 
button in the QAT Remote software

 (see details in 4.7)

. Wait for about 10 seconds until the 

white light on the front panel turns off, meaning the host is standing by. Now you can press 
“STANDBY/ON” to turn on the host again, or completely shut it down by switching off the 
power  supply.  Irregular  operation  may  cause  unexpected  data  loss  or  damage  to  the 
machine.

Connect iPad and the host

 

There are three ways to connect iPad and the host: 

3.1 Use the USB wireless adapter (AP Mode)

 

You can use the USB wireless adapter, which is included in the original package, to connect 
iPad and the host MS5:

 

1) 

Connect  the  USB  wireless  adapter  and  the  host  through  the  USB  port  on  the  rear 
panel.

 

2) 

Tap  “Settings”  on  the  iPad  screen,  and  find  “WLAN”.  Choose  the  correct  network 
SSID(“QAT- 

your S/N

”), and type in code “qatqatqat”, if it is required. Then iPad and the 

host will be connected.

 

3) 

Tap “QAT Remote” on your iPad to operate the host. 

 

Note:  When  the  host  is  connected  to  the  Internet,  the  metadata  of  the  CD  album  will  be 
downloaded and saved in iPad during the CD importing process. To connect to the Internet, 
the  user  needs to  insert  one  end of  the  Ethernet  cable  into  the  RJ45  interface  on the  rear 
panel and the other end into an Internet access.
