Installation
Overview
There are two approaches to installing the MAX-AVP: either as a standalone DVD player, or as a
networked component of a MAX system. Both methods are described below:
As a Stand Alone DVD Player
The MAX-AVP can be installed and used as a stand-alone DVD player, in which case it behaves like any
other consumer-level A/V component and offers several A/V output options:
1. Connect one of the two audio outputs on the AVP (Analog R/L or Coaxial) to an audio amplifier.
2. Connect one of the four video outputs (HDMI™, Component, S-Video or Composite) on the AVP to
a display device.
As a Networked Component of a MAX System
MAX-HT servers communicate via Ethernet to up to 25 MAX-AVM Audio-Video Modules
and/or MAX-AVP Audio/Video Players.
Multiple AVMs and/or AVPs require a Gigabit Ethernet switch (not included) as indicated in
FIG. 1.
