As the BZNP-D1 software manages an NSP-1 via a 
network, the NSP-1 players to be managed should be 
registered in advance. If an NSP-1 uses a password for 
access management, you should also specify the password 
to be sent from the BZNP-D1 software upon accessing the 
NSP-1. 
And, as the BZNP-D1 software manages playlists and 
schedules for the NSP-1 groups and sends data to these 
groups, you should also create NSP-1 groups. A single 
NSP-1 can be a member of more than one group. Classify 
the NSP-1 players into groups according to the contents 
they play, and the screen resolution and orientation 
(portrait or landscape) of the displays connected to the 
respective NSP-1 players.

Although the BZNP-D1LE supports only one NSP-1 
player, create a group to specify screen orientation and 
resolution, or other group attributes.

In the BZNP-D1 main window, select [Setup] > 
[Group Setup] from the menu bar. 

The Group Setup dialog box is displayed.

Register the NSP-1 players used in the system.

2-1

Click [New NSP-1].
The Edit NSP-1 dialog box is displayed.

2-2

In the NSP-1 Name and IP Address text boxes, 
enter the name and IP address of an NSP-1.
A password has been set for each NSP-1 player 
when it is shipped from the factory. If you 
change the password, input an identical 
password in the Password and Retype Password 
text boxes and click [OK] to avoid miss-typing.
Make sure to use the IP address and password 
specified for the NSP-1 hardware. Click [Check 
Connection] to test the connection to the 
specified IP address and display the result.

2-3

Repeat steps 2-1 and 2-2 to register all the NSP-
1 players you use in the system.
The registered NSP-1 players will appear in the 
NSP-1 list box in the Group Setup dialog box.

The order of the registered NSP-1 players in the Group 
Setup dialog box represents the actual order of the 
NSP-1 players when data is sent or when they are 
being displayed in the NSP-1 Status window. 
Arrange the order of the NSP-1 players as desired 
using drag & drop operations.

Create NSP-1 groups.
