Set up UPnP access on a Windows PC
1.If your PC is running Microsoft Windows Vista or Windows XP then you can use Microsoft's Windows Media Player version 11 to act as your UPnP (Universal Plug and Play) media server. If not already installed on your PC, Windows Media Player 11 may be downloaded from Microsoft’s web site and installed by following the instructions detailed in its installation wizard, or by using Microsoft's Windows Update facility.
2.Once installed, WMP 11 can create a library from all the media files available to it on your PC. To add new media files to the library, select the 'Library' tab, then 'Add to Library… > Advanced Options', click 'Add', choose the files or folders that you wish to add and click ‘OK’.
The next step is to connect your radio to WMP 11 and to configure the program to allow the radio to access your media library.
3.Press the On/Off button to switch the unit on. Then press and release the Mode button as needed until the Music Player mode display is shown. The main 'Music Player' menu will then be displayed.
