About the screen saver

If the player is stopped or paused for more than five minutes with no other operation, the screen saver starts.

Once the screen saver has started, pressing any button on the front panel or remote will clear it and return the player to normal operation.

The screen saver starts for CDs and music files after five minutes pass without any commands input, whether or not playback has been paused or stopped.

Select DEL to delete the character at the current cursor position in the name field.

Select CLR to clear the name field.

5Select ‘DONE’ to register the name and exit the input screen.

Select CANCEL to close the keypad without registering the name.

6Select ‘IP Configuration’ then ‘Next Screen’ to display the IP configuration screen.

Using the on-screen displays

This player makes extensive use of graphical on-screen displays (OSDs). You should get used to the way these work as you’ll need to use them when setting up the player, using some of the playback features, and when making more advanced settings for audio and video.

All the screens are navigated in basically the same way, using the cursor buttons (///) to change the highlighted item and

pressing ENTER to select it.

Set the IP address.

7 Set ‘Auto set IP Address’ to ‘On’.

If there is a DHCP server on the local area network (LAN), this player will automatically be allocated an IP address. If you’re using a broadband router or broadband modem that has a DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) server function, select On. The IP address will automatically be determined.

If there is no DHCP server on the network and you select On, this player will use its own Auto IP function to determine the IP address.

If you want to set the IP address manually, select Off then set the IP Address, Subnet mask and Default gateway: Use the / // buttons to select a field; use the number buttons to enter a value. Press ENTER to finish and exit the screen.

8 Press HOME MENU to exit the Initial Setup menu.

You should now be able to use the Home Media Gallery (accessible from the Home Menu). See Using the Home Media Gallery on page 32 for more.

For information on DHCP refer to the network device’s operating instructions.

You may need to contact your service provider or network administrator when manually entering an IP address.
