The Multi Media Module is equipped
with the latest electronics and
should be handled with care.
Loosen the two screws with the
TORX screwdriver supplied and
remove the blanking plate.
Before you install the card, the M51/
M10 must be switched off and
separated from the power supply,
by plugging the unit out.
Before removing the MMM module
from its packaging, you should
make sure that you are not
statically charged. This could cause
a damaging discharge of voltage
when you touch the module. You
should get rid of any static charge
by touching an earthed metal

functioning network with router
available and operational.
If you have any questions about
the setup and configuration of
your network or Internet access,
please refer to your System

WLAN Wireless communication
An access point is required for the
wireless communication between
the MMM and the router. This can
be an external unit or it can be
integrated in the WLAN router.
Internet Radio
If you want to use the MMM to
receive Internet radio, there must
be a broadband Internet access to
the router. Setting up the Internet
access may involve further costs.

Glossary
NETWORK TERMINOLOGY
General
the outside world actually to be
established, the MMM must additionally
be informed of the address of the router
(Gateway).
The network switch ensures the correct
connections between the individual
components. In order to make this
possible, each device within a network
must be capable of being uniquely
identified. Each component therefore, is
given its own address, the so-called IP
address. The IP address is made up
four blocks of numbers, each of which
can contain up to three digits. These
blocks of numbers are separated by a
full stop, e.g. 192.168.1.1.
It must be ensured that the first three
blocks of the Device IP, the Gateway IP
and the DNS 1 are within the same
address range, e.g. 192.168.0.xxx. The
fourth block assigns a unique address
("house number") to the components in
the local network. This number may
only occur once within the local
network. The Device IP mask should
always be given the address
255.255.255.0.
Each of the individual blocks of digits
can have a value between 1 and 254.
The values 0 and 255 are in part
reserved for special functions and
therefore shouldn't be used. In order to
ensure a secure function of your
network, addresses from the pre-
defined range should be used, i.e.:
fundamentally, the first two blocks
should be 192.168.xxx.xxx; the third
block can be selected from the values
in the range mentioned above (must be
the same for all the devices within a
network however) and the fourth block
should be used to differentiate each
device,
DNS
The Domain Name System (DNS) is
one of the most important services in
the Internet. Its main task is that of
converting Internet address like
corresponding IP address. As a rule,
the router in home networks fulfils the
function of the DNS.
If you should decide for the manual
network configuration (without DHCP),
just enter the address of your router as
the DNS address during network
configuration.
e.g.:
MMM 192.168.001.001
NAS: 192.168.001.002
PC:
192.168.001.003
If you don't just want to use devices
within the local network but also music
sources from the Internet (Internet
radio), the MMM must have the
possibility of being able to access the
Internet. This can be achieved, for
example, through a router with a
connection to a DSL network. This
router is also a part of the network and
will be assigned its own IP address. In
order to enable this connection to

Re:source
Gateway
MAC Address
The computer or router in your network
through which the data traffic with the
world outside your network, i.e. the
Internet is handled.
The MAC address (Media Access
Control) is the unique hardware
address that is used for the
unambiguous identification of the
device in the network.
With the MMM, the MAC address can
either be read out in Setup on Page #1
or alternatively, if it has not yet been
installed, from the MAC sticker on the
back of the module.
Client
Network device that draws data out of
the network, decodes it and converts it
for example, into analogue music
signals, which then can be played
through amplifiers and speakers.
Streaming clients also contain functions
for displaying media content and for
navigating in the Internet or on servers.
NAS
Network Attached Storage. As a rule,
this is a storage device with a very
large capacity > 500 GB, which other
devices can access. If the NAS server
contains an UPnP-AV server service,
the MMM can access and play media
files that are stored on the NAS.
DHCP
DHCP is an abbreviation for Dynamic
Host Configuration Protocol. DHCP is
primarily used to enable clients to fetch
their network configuration automatically
from a server or router.
Power Line – LAN
The MMM supports DHCP.
With the Power Line LAN, data is
transmitted through the existing power
cable network. So-called Power Line
Modems are required on the transmitter
and receiver side. As a rule, Power
Line LANs offer reasonably fault-free
data transmission with a data rate
sufficient for audio streaming. We
recommend Power Line Modems with
bit rates of 85 or 200 MBit/s.
IP Address
Network address. Each device in the
network needs an IP address through
which it can be reached and uniquely
identified. Network addresses may not
occur twice. This is important if network
addresses are assigned manually. If
addresses are issued in your network
through DHCP, you don't need to worry
about the IP address assignment as
the DHCL server automatically handles
the question of address management.

A UPnP-AV software must be installed

WLAN (W-LAN, Wireless LAN)
WEP
Radio network. Network connection is
done using radio waves in the 2.4 GHz
frequency range. Radio networks are
easy to install as no cables have to be
laid but are often problematic and
unreliable, particularly over longer
transmission distances. In many cases,
Power Line networks that also don't
require any cabling are a better choice.
Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) is the
previously used standard encryption
algorithm for WLANs. It should control
access to the network as well as
ensuring the confidentiality and integrity
of the data. Because of various weak
spots, the process is considered to be
unsafe. For this reason, WLAN
installations should use the more
secure WPA encryption. See WPA.
With WPE authentication, a distinction
is drawn between two processes:
In each case, the installation of a
network cable is the most fault-tolerant
and
problem
free
transmission
technology. An additional point is that
cabled networks don't produce any
electro smog.
Open
Open System Authentication is the
standard authentication. The WEP key
is used at the same time for
authentication: Each client with the
correct WEP key gets access to the
network.
WPA
Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA)
WPA contains the architecture of WEP,
but offers additional protection through
dynamic keys that are based on the
following (Cipher) standards:
Shared
Shared Key Authentication is reputed to
be the more secure version. In this
case, authentication is done through
the Challenge-Response authentication,
- Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP)
- Advanced Encryption Standard (AES)
with
a
secret key. However, the
WPA offers Pre- Shared Keys (PSK)
for authentication or Extensible
Authentication Protocol (EAP) through
IEEE 802.1x.
Challenge-Response process is also
based on WEP and demonstrates the
same weaknesses.
The MMM offers both Open and Shared
WEP authentication.
The MMM is based on the
authentication PSK and supports both
the WPA encryption TKIP and AES.

MMM Operation
Once all the required settings have
been made in the MMM Setup, the
Multi Media Module (MMM) can be
called in the M51 Source menu
and/or through the keys on the
M217/M218 combination that were
assigned through the Remote
menu.
The following Start screen appears
in the initial seconds after calling
the source Media:
The manual always shows the M51
display view to illustrate working
with the MMM. In terms of content,
this display view is identical to that
of the M217 wall display. The only
difference is the resolution and/or
modified structure for the selection
of menupoints.
During this start phase, the MMM
searches for connected devices
(USB storage, iPod) and/or
network devices (NAS) and the
Internet access for using Internet
radio.
Once the Start phase is completed,
the selection options that have been
found are listed.
The most important menus and
selection options available for
operating the MMM through an
M217/M218 display combination
are shown on the next pages.
The MMM displays the new source
Media in the Source menu.

The MMM indicates to me that
my network is encrypted.
Your network is protected against
external attacks with an encryption
(WEP / WPA). Enter your key in

Where do I get my key from?
If you installed your network

• The MMM can only find your

No, the MMM can only receive data
that is released by the UPnP
