Troubleshooting guide

Pressing the Net Audio button on the main unit (or Music Server button or iNet Radio button on the remote controller) fails to activate the Internet radio or music server feature.

•Imperfect network connection.

➞Check the connection between this unit and the LAN side port of your router (gateway).

➞Make sure that the modem and router (gateway) are correctly connected. Also, make sure that the power is on.

➞Make sure that the Network Setup is configured properly.

The playback sound discontinues while using the Music Server.

•Excessive load on the network or server. Or processor-intensive applications including word processor and spreadsheet are running.

➞Make sure that your system satisfies all the system requirements listed on page 1.

➞When you play WAVE files on multiple DTR-8.3, the playback sound may discontinue because of network overload. In this case, deploying another independent LAN dedicated to the Net Audio to separate from general LAN connection, or adding switching hub or router to improve network traffic may resolve the problem.

The unit fails to obtain a station list from an Internet radio site (via the XiVA internet Radio Service).

•The radio site is now out of service or otherwise inaccessible due to some other reason such as maintenance.

➞ Try to access the site after a while.

Selecting the “Music Server” fails to play music or fails to connect to the server.

•The Audio Network Server is not turned on.

➞Turn on the Audio Network Server.

•No audio files found on the server.

➞Create MP3 and/or WAV audio files on the Audio Network Server.

•The network is down because of some failures.

➞Unplug the power cord of the DTR-8.3 and plug it again.

If this does not resolve the problem, turn off the power of the Audio Network Server and turn it on again.

•The NTSP Port setting on the DTR-8.3 differs from that of the Audio Network Server.

➞Go to “5-4.Client Setup Sub-menu”, select “c.NTSP Port”, then set the same value as used for the Audio Network Server.
