Scope of delivery

Start by making sure that the contents of the package are complete. The NOXON packa-

ge should contain at least the following items:

NOXON A540•

Power supply cable•

Remote control with battery inserted•

WLAN antenna•

Operating manual (DE, EN)•

Quick Start Guide (DE, EN, FR, IT, ES, NL)•

Quick Start Guide for pros

This Quick Start Guide shows you how to get started using your NOXON device. For

detailed descriptions and special congurations, refer to the information further back

in your manual (depending on the scope of delivery, available in printed form or on the

accompanying CD and online at www.terratec.com).

Pretest

Like any network device, your NOXON needs to be connected to your network before

you can get started.

What do you need?

A fast Internet connection (for example, DSL, ideally with a at rate).•

A router for Internet access; for wireless operation, what is called a WLAN (Wireless •

LAN) router

A network cable, if you do not want a wireless Internet connection for your device•

For WLAN integration: your network key (WEP, WPA or WPA2)•

This key, just like any key, protects your network from unauthorised access and was ge-

nerated when your network was set up. To allow NOXON access to a key-protected net-

work, you will need to enter the network key into NOXON in a later step. If your network

does not have a key, the NOXON can connect to the Internet without a network key.

Note: If you are not sure whether you are using a key of this type in your network, just

give it a try without entering anything! If this does not work, repeat the setup process from

the beginning. However, you will need to know your network key at this point. Please ask

the person who set up your network for assistance.

Setup in detail

One question before starting: Wired or wireless?

The NOXON is designed to play les located on a network, either the Internet or your

home network. Two options are available for integrating the device into a network:

Via a wired connection (LAN, Ethernet)

Use a standard network cable to connect the device to a router, switch or hub—to con-

nect it to your PC directly, use a crossover cable.

Via a wireless connection (WLAN, Wi-Fi)

A wireless connection uses a radio link to an access point, router or computer.

Windows / Mac / Linux

NAS - Storage / UPnP - Server

Router / Switch

Internet

RJ - 45 Ethernet

Here, as an example, the integration via cable or WLAN

For information: on routers, SSID, MAC & IPs

You will come across a number of the following topics automatically when integrating your

NOXON. Together with the glossary in the appendix, these brief explanations will give

you a better understanding for making decisions with regard to your network settings. A

number of items are relevant only in connection with wireless networks. We’ll continue

with the actual setup in Chapter “5 – Scenario 1 – the wired network integration”!

NOXON A540

Setting up the router options

For this purpose, you must be sufciently familiar with the router—or its administrator—

to change its conguration and understand its overall handling. Otherwise, you have to

know somebody who is familiar with these things. Normally, these devices use Web in-

terfaces for their administration. In other words, you only need to enter a specic address

(e.g. 192.168.0.1) in your Web browser for it to display a convenient user interface giving

you access to all of the router’s options.

Caution – we are here: SSID broadcast (WLAN)

As explained in the technical glossary, the abbreviation SSID stands for the network

name sent out to all wireless network devices within range, informing them of the pres-

ence of a network with this identication. Some routers, however, have an option to

suppress the broadcast of the network name. The option is a toggle that is usually called

SSID broadcast. If the broadcast is disabled, you must know the name in order to enter

it manually when setting up the NOXON.

Device ID: the MAC address

The so-called MAC address is a unique identier assigned to all network devices. The

MAC address is permanently assigned to the device and cannot be modied. It can

therefore be used to congure routers to permit only devices with specic MAC address-

es to access the network or the Internet. In such a case, it will be necessary to congure

the router with the NOXON’s MAC address so that it will be able to establish a network

connection and access data in the network. The address can be found on a label on the

back of the NOXON.

Sometimes required: a xed IP

Under certain circumstances, it can be useful for a device to always have the same

address. Most networks these days are set up to assign the so-called IP address - the

identier for the TCP/IP protocol - dynamically. In other words, the rst time a device con-

nects, the so-called DHCP server assigns it a valid IP address which the device will keep

as long as the address is not needed elsewhere.

This occurs completely automatically, without the user’s knowledge. If a network

is based on static IPs - i.e. xed addresses, rather than dynamically assigned ones

- there will generally be a precise set of rules governing the addresses that can be

assigned. And our friend the NOXON also has such an IP address. If the network

requires a xed address, the rules for assigning them must be known. But once

again, a xed IP is really the exception; generally, everything happens automatically.

Switching it on for the rst time

To start the NOXON, press the ON/OFF button on the NOXON itself marked with the

icon.

Setup wizard

Start now?

YES NO

After switching on the device, you enter the setup

wizard, which helps you set up your NOXON

A540.

Then, set the time format (12/24-hour).

The date and time follow. Set each of these using the navigation dial and conrm by

pressing the dial or the remote control. By the way, the date format is European – date

rst, then month. Then, you can decide on a WLAN region. Unless you are currently in

Spain or France, [Most of Europe] is the correct choice for Europeans.

And that’s all the information the setup wizard needs from you. It hands the baton over to

the network conguration wizard automatically.

The network conguration wizard

When switching it on for the rst time, the NOXON network device does not yet have

any information about the possible network environments from which it will be getting its

content. After switching it on for the rst time and selecting a language, the conguration

wizard will be displayed automatically.

As in all other menus of the NOXON, use the navigation dial to move through the selec-

tions. Conrm your selection by pressing the navigation dial.

The following chapter describes how to congure access, both for wired and wireless

network integration. If you are not satised with the way things are working after running

the Wizard, you can run it again by going to the main menu, selecting [Settings] and se-

lecting [Network] and then the network wizard in the following submenu.

If a DHCP server is active in your router – which is

the case in almost every current model – please

The wizard now automatically connects to your

router and gets its network address from the DHCP

server. Every device in the network must have

such an identier to ensure that the IP packets ar-

rive in the right place. Normally, that’s all there is to it, and the connection is made.

In rare cases, however, static IP addresses are assigned for certain access settings—

for more information, have a word with your network administrator. See “Sometimes

required: a xed IP.

Scenario 2 – the wireless connection

We would also like to give you the information necessary to integrate your NOXON wire-

lessly via a router as an alternative to the wired network connection as described under

“Scenario 1 – the wired connection”.

Not unimportant: the location

A wireless signal always travels along a direct point-to-point, i.e. antenna-to-antenna,

path. The quality of a wireless connection thus stands or falls with the obstacles in the

line of sight from the NOXON to the opposite network device. Setting the device up in

some locations may therefore result in a poorer signal, even if the actual distance is

shorter. For example, if a large amount of masonry or sources of interference are located

between the devices, the signal quality will decrease despite the short distance.

Note: Use the display of your NOXON to determine the signal strength at selected loca-

tions.

Wireless integration using a router

In comparison to wired networks, a wireless local area network (WLAN) link provides

considerable additional freedom, but also requires a bit more attention—especially if you

do not want to completely neglect security aspects.

In the case of wireless, data is transmitted over one or more access points (AP). These

WLAN access points are generally integrated into the broadband router of your Internet

access line. While exact gures are not available, one can nevertheless safely assume

that this is currently the most common way to use broadband Internet access and share it

locally among several users. The NOXON is also the most fun to use this way, as you can

receive radio from the Internet or music from other computers in your network—without

necessarily having your own computer running at the time.

Your network should be among them. This looks

something like this.

Please select “your” network now. If the network you are looking for does not appear, you

can repeat the search via the [Rescan] menu item. Perhaps your NOXON A540 is simply

too far away from the router, or there are too many walls and other obstacles between

the two devices? Go ahead and place the NOXON right next to the router to eliminate

distance as a possible source of errors.

If at this point, you decide that you would rather connect your radio to the router, select

the menu item [Wired].

After successfully selecting the network you have to enter the network password. At

least, you have to if you have encrypted your WLAN router properly. We’d like to take this

opportunity to urgently recommend that you do just that. But back to the matter at hand.

If you accidentally type in the wrong thing, use the eld [BKSP] (for backspace). When

you have nished entering the password, go to the [OK] eld. Please do not conrm each

letter using [OK], as this would cancel the input.

After you conrm using the OK button, the NOXON A540 sends the password to the

router (“Please wait” appears on the screen), which – if the password is correct – logs on

the A540 (indicated on the display with “Connected”).

Your entries are thus stored in the device and you do not have to repeat them. The next

time the A540 is switched on, it nds your router automatically and logs into the network

on its own.

Manual conguration

You have to select this entry if your router does not tell you the network name and you

have to enter it manually, or the router has no DHCP server and the IP address is to be

assigned as a xed address. The setup here is the same as that described under “Sce-
