Preparation on Each Client

1Turn on the client.

The front panel display lights up, showing the initial screen, followed by a “Connecting...” message.

nIf the client display shows the current time without backlight, it’s in sleep mode. If this is the case, press the center stick of the cursor controller. The client wakes up and shows the above message.

2The “Connecting...” message indicates the client is searching a MusicCAST server to establish a network connection. At this point, however, we have not completed any network configuration. So, when the client display shows a network icon, push the controller stick upward or downward to cancel the message. The client stops searching.

4Push the controller stick leftward twice to go back to the Network screen. Select Auto Configuration (Top Menu > Setup > Network > Auto Configuration).
