DIGITAL MEDIA RENDERER (DMR)
The Plinius Tiki will perform this function.
DIGITAL MEDIA SERVER (DMS)
This is a DLNA compatible device for storage of your music library
and software to manage the fi les. This may be a Ripping-NAS, NAS,
PC or Mac and a program such as Asset UPnP, Windows Media
Player, TwonkyMedia Server etc.
DIGITAL AUDIO FILES
These fi les may be ripped from CD’s you own or fi les you have
purchased and downloaded online. You may rip the CD’s using a
Ripping NAS or software such as dBPowerAmp, or you may use a
professional CD ripping service. NOTE: Copyrights exist around
recorded music and its use. Do not rip CDs for use unless you are
the owner of the original disc.
MOBILE DIGITAL MEDIA CONTROLLER (M-DMC)
The Mobile Digital Media Controller is a DLNA UPnP application
(or “App”) installed on your mobile device for control of the digital
audio. The App may be a common type such as PlugPlayer or
Songbook UPnP, or another application you have selected. The
device the app is installed on may be Smartphone, iPhone, iPad,
iPod etc that you have chosen or that has been recommended by
your dealer.
WIRELESS ROUTER
This device connects to your Plinius Tiki and to your media server
and has capability to create a wireless connection between this
point and your Controller. This may be a wireless router or similar
component.
COMPONENT CONNECTIONS
There are several ways to connect your components. The most
simple is to use LAN cables between the Plinius Tiki, Wireless
Router and Media Server. Alternatives are using a set of Powerline
products to make use of your home power wiring instead of one of
these LAN cables, or you may use wireless bridge devices to send
and receive at each end instead of one of these LAN cables.

Check you have all the components to get the system working. This list outlines the
components you need, and some common examples of these components.
