   Monitor Preview Window 
This window is used either to preview a file (a movie or photo file) registered in the library list ( )and 
selected in the fields window( ), or to monitor a monitor. 
1.Playing a file registered in the library 
Click on a classification in the library list ( ), and the files under the selected classification are 
displayed in the fields window ( ). Then, double-click on a file in the fields window to play it. 
While playing, the file information is displayed in   Only audio, movie, and image files can be 
played. For office files, only file information is displayed in . However, if monitoring for a

2.Monitoring the selected monitor (Preview) 
With the relevant monitor selected by a number   (the name of the monitor will be displayed 
in the field  ), the screen played by the currently-selected monitor will be displayed. 
Audio, video and image files can be played, while only the file information appears for office 
files. 
(In this case, only files registered in the library of the server will be played, and the local/USB 
files on the monitor will display only the basic information. In addition, when the output source 
of a monitor does not belong to MagicNet, information on the relevant output source will be

For Multi Screen and Video Wall, the filename of the project being played back is displayed.  
 
 
 Network 
The status bar next to the monitor name will display the overall network status (traffic) of all the 
monitors connected to the server. For example, assume that the network system capability is 100Mbs 
and a 100Mbs network card is installed in the server. If there is no network traffic used for other 
purposes, three monitors are connected, and each monitor uses 10Mbs of traffic, the progression will 
be indicated as about 30%. 
 
Server PC Environment: Recommended (CPU: 3GHz, RAM:512M, Ethernet: 
100M/1G) 
 
Network Environment: Local network not connected externally  
- Normal: Server PC network bandwidth: 50% ~ 60%  
- Max: Server PC network bandwidth: 90% or more (not recommended)

found server when the connection to the server with the name defined in the Setup is not 
available.  
Lets say there are two servers called S1 and S2, respectively, and a monitor called C, 
which is currently connected to the S1 server. When the connection to S1 fails or stops, 
C will automatically be connected to the S2 server.

2. This item will be deactivated in monitors that are not connected to a server.  
 
3. If you select the Update item, a window pops up. Search for the path to NK.bin, select it, 
and click the Update button.  
The update will proceed in two steps: Download (Save the update file in the monitor) → 
Update (MagicNet installation)  
 
4. You may cancel this function during the download stage, but not during the update 
stage.  
 
5. Once the update is completed, the monitor will reboot automatically.  
 
6. If you try updating with an abnormal file, a warning message will appear, and the update 
will not proceed.  
 
7. Please make sure that the power of the monitor is not turned off while updating once the 
download is over.  
Furthermore, if the output source is a PC, please turn off the monitor off function in the 
power options of the connected PC for the duration of the update.  
MagicNet is not operating normally.  
If the power turns off during the update, contact our After-Sales Service Center.
