CHAPTER 6 – Using a Computer

Use With a Home Computer

Your TGM-100 has a number of advanced features which can be accessed via a computer connected to your home network.

Manual Media Transfer

In addition to recording directly from the CD tray, it is also possible to transfer music and cover art images to and from your TGM-100, using a computer on your home network. This feature allows you to transfer music files from your TGM-100 to a portable device (for example, an Apple® iPod®) via a PC to allow you to listen to your music collection while you are away from home.

Note: In some countries the copying of material protected by copyright law may require permission of the copyright owners.

Transferring Media Using a PC

Provided that your TGM-100 is correctly connected to the network, it should be accessible by browsing the Network from your PC. Alternatively, open Windows Explorer and type the IP address of your TGM-100 into the Address bar. In the example below, the IP address 172.20.30.233 has been entered:

When you first attempt to access your TGM-100 on your home network, a dialogue box will appear asking you to enter a username and password:

The username and password required are as follows:

Username - tgm100

Password - tgm100

Note: The above username and password are case sensitive.

Transferring Media Using a Mac

If you are using a Macintosh computer you can create a new network connection as follows:

Select Go from the Finder menu and click Connect to Server.

Click on the Browse button in the Connect to Server window.

Navigate to your TGM-100 on the network and double- click the appropriate icon.

A window showing the available contents of the TGM-100 external storage device will be displayed.

Importing Files to your TGM-100

Double click on the folder entitled Import. An empty folder window will be displayed.

To Import Music Files

Navigate to the location of the music files on your computer.

Use your mouse to select the files you wish to import and either drag or copy and paste them into the Import window.

The files will appear briefly in the Import window but after a few seconds will disappear. These files should now be accessible in the Audio Library of your TGM-100.

If you have assigned "tags" to your music, such as ID3, those will be used when adding tracks to the library.

Note: The currently supported audio file types for import are WAV, WMA and MP3 (WMA Lossless and DRM protected files are not supported). Any files of an unsupported type that are dropped into the Import folder will not be imported.

TGM-100C, TGM-100 specifications

The Sunfire TGM-100 and TGM-100C are advanced, next-generation gasification systems developed by Sunfire, a pioneer in sustainable energy technologies. These models are designed to convert a broad range of carbon-based feedstocks, such as biomass and waste materials, into high-quality synthesis gas (syngas). Utilizing a unique combination of innovative technologies, they stand out in the realm of clean energy production.

One of the main features of the TGM-100 and TGM-100C is their efficient conversion process. They employ a dual-stage gasification technology that enhances the efficiency of energy extraction from various raw materials. The first stage utilizes pyrolysis, where the feedstock is thermally decomposed in the absence of oxygen, leading to the production of bio-oil and char. This is followed by a gasification stage, where the remaining solid residues are converted into syngas using controlled amounts of oxygen and steam. This two-step process ensures high conversion rates and maximizes energy output.

In terms of technology, both models are equipped with advanced control systems that monitor and optimize the gasification parameters in real-time. These systems improve operational flexibility and reliability, allowing the units to adapt to varying feedstock qualities. Additionally, the TGM-100C version is designed with modular capabilities, making it easier to scale projects according to specific energy needs or feedstock availability.

Another characteristic that sets these models apart is their emphasis on environmental sustainability. The systems are designed to minimize emissions, contributing to a cleaner energy landscape. The syngas produced can be utilized in various applications, including power generation, chemical production, and as a substitute for natural gas in industrial processes.

The TGM-100 and TGM-100C are also notable for their robustness and durability. Built to withstand high operational demands, they feature high-grade materials and components that ensure long-lasting performance even under challenging conditions. These characteristics make them suitable for a range of applications, from industrial settings to remote off-grid locations.

In summary, the Sunfire TGM-100 and TGM-100C represent cutting-edge advancements in gasification technology. With their efficient energy conversion processes, modular capabilities, real-time optimization, and commitment to sustainability, they are a compelling choice for those seeking reliable and environmentally friendly energy solutions.
