7. Run Autobuild

AutoBuild is the process that automatically collects information about the CDs in any connected CD/DVD mega changers. You do not need to complete this step if you do not have any changers connected to your FireBall.

To start the AutoBuild process, load the changer(s) with CDs and close the changer door(s). If you already loaded the discs in the changers, then just open and close the changer doors. The AutoBuild status screen will be displayed providing information about the Autobuild process.

Note: The AutoBuild process takes about 30-60 seconds per disc (depending on your Internet connection speed). So one full 400 disc changer could take as long as 7 hours. The AutoBuild process is fully automatic so you don’t need to stick around. If you stop the AutoBuild process for any reason, you can start it again by simply opening and closing the changer doors. This will then only lookup the disks that were not looked up previously. You can perform other disc lookup functions in the Changer Management section of the Setup Menu.

Some of your music titles and covers may not be recognized. FireBall provides options for adding this information yourself using the Options key on the remote and the on-screen menus.

Refer to the Installation & User’s Guide, Chapter 3 - Getting Started - for more information on the AutoBuild process and setting up you FireBall music collection.

8. Setup Preferences

Press the SETUP key on the remote to display the Setup Menu. Here you can access the global settings and user preferences screens. This can be done at any time.

Refer to the Installation & User’s Guide, Chapter 8 - Customizing FireBall.

9. Enjoy FireBall

Check out the “Time For Fun - Open Me Second” to begin finding, selecting, playing, and recording your favorite songs.

10. Putting FireBall into Standby Mode

Press the POWER key on the remote control, keyboard, or front panel to put your FireBall into Standby mode.

Note: Your FireBall should be plugged into a non-switched AC outlet at all times. If you do need to unplug your FireBall for any reason, you should first put it into Standby mode. This allows the FireBall to properly shutdown the hard drive. If the FireBall is unplugged when it is on, then the next time it is plugged in, it will take longer to initialize because it must check and repair the hard drive.
