How Do I Power Up Axcess for the Very First Time?

Once you’ve connected Axcess to Entré and your speakers, set up the remote, and set up Entré to recognize Axcess, you can begin using the Remote Portal. Plug Axcess’ power cord directly into a wall outlet that receives constant power.

After you plug Axcess’ power cord into the wall, its Standby, Music, Net Radio and AUX indicators illuminate momemtarily, then it enters Standby mode. Once the Standby indicator stays lit, press the POWER button to turn Axcess on.

If Axcess finds updated software to download from Entré, the following screen appears for about 2–3 seconds:

Do not press any buttons on either Axcess’ front panel or remote control until the configuration process is complete. If you do, Axcess will be unusable because it has no valid Read-Only Memory (ROM). Return your unit to an authorized service outlet for repair.

Once this process is complete, Axcess enters the AUX input mode. You can then choose to listen to an auxiliary souce (if connected), or switch to playing music or Internet Radio.
