NOTE

Although you can manually enter the URL of an internet radio station, the AVR600 uses the vTuner service

to allow easy browsing of internet radio stations and podcasts. To set up this service for your AVR600, please visit www.arcamradio.co.uk

There, you will be asked to enter the Media Access Controller (MAC) address which is the unique ID of your AVR600. This MAC address can be found in the network section of the setup menu.

Once you have entered the MAC address, you can then browse stations and podcasts and set up groups of favourite stations. When you next connect your AVR600 to the internet, these groups will appear in the selection list.

Pressing the INFO key will cycle what is shown on the lower right portion of the front panel display between:

<Elapsed Time (default)

<Processing mode

<Album (if available)

<Artist (if available)

<File information (bitrate, type).

iPod

For playback from a network device, the network device needs to running a universal plug and play (uPnP) service, such as Windows Media Player 11. This can be downloaded free of charge from www.microsoft.com or installed via the Windows update installer. Windows Vista™ has this functionality built in.

Other free and paid-for uPnP services are available for other computer operating systems. Some network attached storage (NAS) systems include a built-in version of a uPnP service.

It is possible to connect an iPod to your AVR600 using either the Arcam rLead or rDock accessories (please contact your dealer).

Connect the 9-way plug into the socket marked ‘rLead/rDock’ and the audio leads to the AV input. If your iPod has video output and you are using the rDock, connect the composite and S-Video leads to the AV video inputs.
