Connecting the radio using UPnP

1.Use the Select control to switch on your radio and to access the menus. If needed, use the Back option. Select the Media Player menu. Rotate the Select control to highlight 'UPNP Servers'.

2.Press and release the Select control and the radio will scan for all available UPnP servers. Note, this may take a few seconds for the radio to complete its scan and before the scan has completed, the radio will display 'Empty'. The radio will continue to display 'Empty' if no UPnP servers are found.

3.After scanning, select your UPnP server (rotate the Select control if more than one UPnP server is found), and then press the Select control. Your radio will normally display 'Access Denied' at this stage.

4.Your PC may now prompt you that a device has attempted to connect to your UPnP server. Whether you are prompted or not, in order to allow the radio to have access to the media files, you will need to click the 'Library' tab in WMP 11 and select the 'Media Sharing…' item to open the 'Media Sharing' window.

5.From the 'Media Sharing' window, the radio will be listed as an unknown device. Click on the unknown device shown to select it, then click the 'Allow' button and then click 'OK'.

Note: If you are using Microsoft Windows' firewall software, this should be correctly configured by WMP 11. If you are using third party firewall software you may need to manually configure it to allow your radio and WMP 11 to communicate (see 'Troubleshooting' on page 53).

6.Select the named server again using the Select control. If WMP 11 is now able to communicate with your radio you will be presented with some media selection options by the server software.
