1. Network Requirement

• A broadband connection in combination with a wired/wireless access point, router or similar

network device.

• The network device needs to support Ethernet (LAN) wired connection or WiFi (802.11b/g)

wireless connection.

• PC, tablet or smartphone with network connected. This network has to be the same one as

the iRadio NOXON A550+ equipped with.

2. Safety Precaution

• Do not drop the NOVON A550+ and do not expose it to liquid, moisture or humidity. These

might lead to damage to the device.

• If the NOXON A550+ is moved from a cold environment into a warmer one, do let it adapt to

the new temperature before operate the device. Otherwise, it might lead to condensation and

cause malfunctions in the device.

• Do not use the NOXON in the dust environment as dust can damage the interior electronic

components and lead to malfunctions in the device.

• Protect the NOXON A550+ from strong vibrations and place it on stable surfaces.

• Do not attempt to disassembly the NOXON.

• Only use the power adaptor delivered with the NOXON A550+.

• The socket outlet should be installed near the NOXON and should be easily

accessible.

• Never touch the power plug with wet hands and never pull on the power cable

when pulling the plug out of the power socket.

• Make sure the electrical voltage specied on the NOXON and its power plug

is corresponding to the voltage of the power socket. Incorrect voltage will

destroy the device.

• If the NOXON A550+ is not using for a long period of time, disconnect it from the power sup-

ply by unplugging the power plug. This is to avoid the risk of re.

• It is not recommended to listen the NOXON A550+ with headphone via LINE OUT. In case

you use headphone, always reduce the volume before put on the headphones. After the

heaphones are positioned properly, increase the volume to the desired level.

• Always power off the NOXONwhen cleaning it.

• Never use any harsh or strong solvents to clean the NOXON since these may damage the

surface of the device. Dry, soft cloth is appropriate, however, if the NOXON is extremely dirty,

it may be wiped off with a slightly moist cloth. Make sure the device is dried off after cleaning.

• When you are necessary to ship the NOXON, store it in its original package. Save the packa-

ge for this purpose.

• If have to dispose the device in the future, note that it should not be disposed with household

waste. Bring it to a reception point for the recycling of electrical devices.

streaming which you look for the music list and con-

trol playback from NOXON. This topic will introduce

another way to do the music streaming which is not

necessary to control playback on NOXO. You can

share the music les from PC, Android mobile or

tablet, and directly use your PC, Android mobile,

tablet or iPhone / iPad to control music playback on

the NOXON. It is simple called DLNA streaming.

5.5.1 Control on PC

The PC system requirements for DLNA are Windows 7 and Windows Media Player 12. Setup as

below: Firstly, share the media on your PC to NOXON A550+.

Control Panel > Network and Internet > Network and Sharing Center > Media streaming options

Open Windows Media Player to enable Allow remote

control of my Player.

Right click any music in the library and choose Play

to NOXON A550+.

A box of music playback pops up for the

streaming.

5.5.2 Control on Smartphone / Tablet

You may search (with keyword: DLNA) and install any free or commercial DLNA Apps from Google

Play or Apple Store if you are using Android mobile, tablet or iPhone / iPad. It is suggested to use

iMediaShare on Android mobile, tablet or iPhone/iPad.

Procedures for playing shared music on the app are as follows:

1. Select NOXON A550+ as the player.

2. Select music server and choose the music.

Select Player Select server

NOTE: Some Apps may not support streaming music from iPhone/iPod but iPhone/iPod could still

be used to control streaming music from other servers. Some Apps may allow to play the music

to multi players at the same time. Some Apps can create a playlist if you choose several music.

Study the own instruction of the software or Apps you use to enjoy DLNA streaming if necessary.

• If reception was not good for the original scan, this may result in an empty or incomplete list

of available stations.

• If you have poor reception of some stations (burbling), you may wish to list only stations with

good signal strength.

To start a scan manually, choose Full scan. To scan only stations with good signal strength, select

Local scan.

Once the scan is complete, the radio shows a list of

available stations. To remove stations that are listed but not

unavailable, choose Prune invalid.

rate/codec/channels and today’s date.

5.6.4 Settings

Dynamic range compression (DRC)

If you are listening to music with a high dynamic range in a noisy environment, you may wish to

compress the audio dynamic range. This makes quiet sounds louder, and loud sounds quieter. You

can change DRC as off, low or high.
