Player identification

Identification

Each SpinetiX player can be uniquely identified by its serial number, which is based on its MAC address. A friendlier device name can be assigned to the player - initially, this is set to its serial number.

A sticker with the serial number, a barcode, player model and few other information can be found on the bottom side of each player. This helps identifying the unit and it should not be removed.

MAC address

Each player has a unique MAC address for network identification, having the following format: 00:1d:50:tx:xx:xx , where:

t stands for player family, as in:
- 0 for HMP130 and HMP100
- 1 for HMP200
- 2 for DiVA, HMP300 and HMP350
x stands for a hexadecimal digit (that is 0-9, a-f).

To find out the player MAC address briefly press and release its blue button to trigger On Screen Display (OSD).

Serial number

Each player has a unique serial number for physical identification, having the following format: 001d50txxxxx (see details above). It contains the characters of its MAC address, without the ":" colon separator . The serial number of the player cannot be changed in any way.

To find out the player serial number either check the sticker on the bottom side of the player or briefly press and release its blue button to trigger On Screen Display (OSD).

Barcode

A sticker with a barcode representing the player serial number can be found on the bottom side of each player.

For the HMP200, there is one barcode on the device, unique to that device, a matching barcode on the packaging, then a further barcode on the packaging which is the product ID, which will be the same across groups of devices.

Device name

Each player has a device name, set by default to the player serial number, displayed and configurable within the Control Center interface. The device name is advertised on the network through device discovery protocols, do it can be shown within Elementi Devices or in Windows Explorer.

To change the device name, follow these steps:

Open Control Center and go to:
- System > Identity page for DiVA, HMP300 and HMP350 devices;
- Network Settings page > Advanced tab for HMP200, HMP130, and HMP100 devices.
Enter the new device name - only ASCII charters, underscore and the hyphen; spaces are not allowed.
Click the "Apply" button.
