VIII. Setting Display Preferences

The brightness of your display can be adjusted by pressing the Bright [н] button.

Text size and fonts can also be controlled for the SoundBridge M1000’s VFD display by pressing the Bright [н] button.

Also, from the Home Menu, you can navigate down to the “Settings” option to change certain options, such as the style of music visualizer, whether the music visualizer appears full screen during playback, and what kind of information is displayed when a song is playing.

For a complete list of SoundBridge settings, please see the “Advanced Features” section of this user guide.

IX. Checking for the Latest Software

When a software update is available, your SoundBridge will automatically offer you the choice to upgrade. Please take a minute to do so.You’ll just need SoundBridge connected to a network with a high-speed Internet connection.

Note: You will be offered the chance to upgrade when coming out of standby mode or after accessing your “source” menu (which lists your available music libraries and Internet radio). If for some reason you never access this menu, like you always stay connected to the same library, we recommend checking for new software manually.

See Options for System Configuration section for instructions on how to check for new software manually. Roku will release a revised user guide in PDF format periodically to explain new features or functions that have been added to the SoundBridge software. Please visit www.rokulabs.com/support to download the latest manual.

X. Wall or Under-Cabinet Mounting (optional)

SoundBridge ships with a portable black rubber table stand which looks great on your shelf or nightstand. An optional wall mounting kit is available for sale at www.rokulabs.com/buy. This allows SoundBridge to be mounted to the wall or under a cabinet using a sleek, hidden bracket which screws into your wall. For more information, please visit the Roku web site at www.rokulabs.com.
