The Game of Life™ / Setup and Configuration (APL based)
MEDIA CONTROLLER SETUP
Connect and configure the Uninterruptible Power
Supply (UPS)
The Uninterruptible Power Supply in combination with
the shutdown software is intended to ensure a properly
shutdown of the Media Controller in case of a power
outage. It also allows users to shut down the Media
Controller by switching off mains voltage. The shutdown
software will properly shut down the Media Controller
in this case.
1. Connect the UPS to mains and turn on the UPS by
pressing and holding the ON/OFF/TEST button for
approximately 3 seconds.
2. Connect the Media Controller to one of the batte-
ry back up outlets of the UPS (highlighted green in
the figure above). The Media Controller should boot
automatically.
Do not use the outlet in the lower right to con-
nect the Media Controller. This outlet is only surge
protected but features no battery back up. You
may use this outlet to connect the signage.
3. After the The Game of Life™ display software has
been loaded press the ESC (escape) button on the
Media Controller keyboard.
The display software closes and the Windows XP
®
desktop is visible.
4. Connect the USB cable that came with the UPS
to the USB port of the UPS. Then connect the
USB cable to the Media Controller. The Windows
XP
®
hardware wizard detects the new hardware
and loads the necessary drivers automatically.

Power Supply to prevent this.
