KiSS KML Start Page

The VR-558 can access any KiSS enabled web page (web pages that uses KML) on the entire internet. This way it is possible to go to 3rd party webpages not created by KiSS.

These IP Addresses can be found on the Internet. When you have an IP Address of a KML page press MENU on your remote, go to PC-LINK and select ENTER IP ADDRESS FOR PC-LINK HOST. Enter the IP Address and press OK. Then go to PC-LINK KML START PAGE to view the web page.If you get an error message while going to PC-LINK KML START PAGE, that means that the IP Adress you provided does not contain anything a KiSS Player can display. This feature is for future use.
