Chapter 2: Getting Started

2.1 Hardware Installation

Please fasten the wireless antenna and the FM antenna to appropriate

antenna connectors at the rear panel of the device. If you prefer to use

Ethernet for wired network connection, please plug in your Ethernet cable to

the LAN (RJ45) port.

Please plug in the DC power adapter to the outlet and the DC power jack

carefully.

To operate the device, you can use both the supplied remote control and

also the keypad buttons.

2.2 Software Installation

AIRMM01F can work as a stand-alone device or as a media streamer of a

media server. As a stand-alone unit, you can use it to listen to Internet radio,

FM radio, and external USB storage/MP3 players. No computer is needed.

For digital music ﬁles that are stored in your computer, you need to install

streaming server software in the computer so that AIRMM01F can request

the streaming service from that server.

AIRMM01F is compliant to UPnP protocol. It works with media server

software such as Microsoft Windows Media Player 11 (WMP11), Microsoft

Media Connect 2.0 (WMC2.0), and Musicmatch Jukebox. Once you have

the software installed on the computer, you can stream your music collection

to AIRMM01F.

Please ﬁnd Appendix A and B for instructions on how to connect AIRMM01F

to your computer via WMP11, and WMC2.0.

Chapter 3: Conﬁguration

There are three modes of network conﬁguration for AIRMM01F. It can be a

wireless client, a wired client, or even a wireless access point (Wireless AP).

3.1 Conﬁgure as an Wireless Client

The factory default mode is the wireless client code. According to the availability

of an Ethernet cable, the device will automatically select a suitable client mode

to operate. User can also manually change the setting of network conﬁguration

through the Setup menu “Setup/Advanced Setup/Conﬁgure Network”.

AIRMM01F will connect wirelessly if it detects an 802.11b/g wireless net

-

work. With no Ethernet cable attached, you just need to power on the device

and AIRMM01F will automatically enter the wireless client mode.

To connect AIRMM01F to the wireless network for the ﬁrst time, you will

need to set the encryption key for a secured network. Once the setting is ﬁn

-

ished, the device will remember the related settings and try to connect to the

designated AP when it is power on next time. However, if there is something

trouble in connecting to the designated AP, the device will show the AP list

screen for you to conﬁgure again
