Power up HMP100
1. Check your digital display. HMP100 can drive a digital display through HDMI or VGA
connections: make sure that your display supports at least one of the two.
2. Get the correct video cable. HMP100 is not delivered with HDMI or VGA cables: these
are often provided with the display or can be found in specialized shops. According to
your display make sure to get the right video cable.
3. Connect HMP100 to the display. Simply plug the HDMI or the VGA cable between the
corresponding video out connector on the front panel of HMP100 and the corresponding
video in connector of your display.
4. Power up the display. Make sure to select the right video input.
5. Power up HMP100. Use the cables and the power converter provided in the HMP100
package. Simply plug the power converter on one side to a 110-220V outlet and on the
other to the back panel DC jack.
Shortly after power up, the screen displays the SpinetiX splash screen as displayed in the
Figure.
The first time HMP100 boots, the automatic configuration procedure takes about 1½
minute. The process will be reduced to less than 50 seconds when you will reboot the
HMP100 again. During this booting process the front panel LED shows green and red
activity.
