DMS-650/700/800 QUICK START GUIDE
First decide how you want to connect the DMS to your Router. Choose either Wi- Fi (two methods) or Ethernet, but DO NOT connect both ways. Delete all previous Cary streaming apps from your phone/tablet. Download the Cary Audio Streamer 2.0 app, but do not have it opened. Additionally, it must be completely closed out and not running in the background.
IF YOU ARE CONNECTING THE DMS WITH WI-FI, DO NOT CONNECT AN ETHERNET CABLE.

WI-FI SETUP

Screw the two Wi-Fi and Bluetooth antennas onto the rear of the DMS.
Place the DMS in its location and connect either the XLR or RCA outputs to your preamp, integrated amp, or amplifier.
Connect the AC power cord and plug it into the AC outlet.
Wait 30 seconds and turn on the DMS. Allow it to fully boot up.

METHOD A – Wi-Fi setup using Cary Streamer 2.0 App.

Use the IR handheld remote to select “Connect to Wi-Fi with App” or wait 30 seconds for the DMS Hotspot to automatically open. If this screen does not appear, press Network input on the IR remote.
Open your phone/tablet WIFI setup Menu and connect to DMS WiFi hotspot.
Once phone/tablet is connected to DMS WiFi hotspot, go back to the Cary Audio Streamer 2.0 app and select Hotspot Setup. Continue, then select or enter your SSID (WiFi name) and WiFi password and select Connect.
Once DMS connects and displays the Network Settings Menu, select Done on the Cary Streamer 2.0 app.
BE SURE TO ALLOW LOCATION SERVICES AND FILE ACCESS WHEN APP PROMPTS.
Although it is typically automatic, make sure your phone also reverts back to your home Wi-Fi network from the setup DMS WiFi.

METHOD B – WiFi setup using IR remote control.

Using IR remote control, select “Connect to Wi-Fi with IR Remote.” (If this screen does not appear, press Network input on the IR remote).
A prompt will appear confirming you wish to search and setup a Wi-Fi Connection. Select YES.
Select your Wi-Fi network and press Enter.
Using the alphanumeric keys on the hand-held IR remote, enter your Security Key, and select Connect.

WIRED SETUP (ETHERNET)

IF YOU ARE CONNECTING THE DMS WITH WIRED ETHERNET, DO NOT CONNECT THE TWO WI- FI ANTENNAS.

Place the DMS within a cable run of your router.
Connect an Ethernet cable to the back of the DMS and plug the other end into your router (or Network/Ethernet Switch).
Connect the AC power cord and plug it into the AC outlet.
Wait 30 seconds and turn on the DMS. Allow it to fully boot up.
Note: If connection is not automatically established, Press Menu on the IR remote and navigate to Network Settings and select Wired and DHCP (for automatic configuration) and press Connect. Once the DMS has established a network connection, it will default to the USB/SD input at startup. The DMS is now ready to enjoy. Just select whichever input source you wish to listen to i.e.; Internet Music Services, Network Sources, USB & SD Card, etc.

NOTE: The DMS default volume is set to -30. If connected directly to an amplifier, slowly increase volume to an acceptable level. If connected to a preamplifier, integrated amplifier, or receiver (something with a volume control), set the DMS volume anywhere from 0.0 to +8.0 and leave it. However, it is recommended to set it to +8.0 for Pure Audio Mode (Note: the DMS-700 and 800PV default to a 3.0-volt output. You can select a 2.0-volt output if desired in the Volume/Output Setup). Subsequent volume control should be done by the preamplifier, integrated amplifier, or receiver. To get the most out of your DMS it is HIGHLY recommended to download the full manual at www.caryaudio.com. Without doing so, you will not fully understand all the settings and operational procedures which could lead to misuse and or potential damage to other components as it relates to volume and voltage output control. Finally, anytime you do a firmware update, it is recommended you also do a system Reset afterward. Then, once the Reset is done, pull the power cord for two minutes. This is to make sure update completely takes and that the cache and system memory fully reset. CARY
