I. Installing the NV-MPS4 as Part of a NuVo Distributed Audio System
The NV-MPS4 will fully communicate as a NuVoNet audio component with a few simple connections. Locate the NV-MPS4 component with the main component of the NuVo Distributed Audio System. Make all the connections first and plug it into an AC power source and press the Power button on the front panel.The NV-MPS4 operating system will automatically boot up. You will see considerable activity on the “HDD” hard drive status LED on the front panel during this process. This will take approximately 60 seconds.
Audio Outputs
There are four independent audio outputs available to the NuVo System.These will be addressed through the Remote Configuration tool, see II. Setting Up the NV-MPS4 Through the Remote Configuration Tool, page, 10 .
Connect the audio outputs from the NV-MPS4 to the desired audio inputs on the Essentia, Grand Concerto or Renovia System using standard stereo RCA cables (four are supplied with the NV-MPS4 package) or if you are connecting to the Renovia System, use stereo RCA to stereo mini 3.5 mm cables, Fig. 1.

NuVoNet Connection
Full communication with the NuVo Distributed Audio Systems is provided through a single CAT5 connection. This requires a standard network CAT5 cable (one is provided in the NV-MPS4 package).
To make this connection to the Essentia or Grand Concerto Systems, plug the CAT5 into the “NuVoNet” RJ45 output on the NV-MPS4 back panel and into one of the “Device” inputs on the Essentia Allport or the Grand Concerto EZ Port. Connect another CAT5 from the Allport or EZ Port “NuVoNet” output to the input on the NuVo Distributed Audio System, Fig. 2.
