If the AC plug of this unit does not match the AC outlet you want to use, the plug must be removed and appropriate one fitted. Replacement and mounting of an AC plug on the power supply cord of this unit should be performed only by qualified service personnel. If connected to an AC outlet, the cut-off plug can cause severe electrical shock. Make sure it is properly disposed of after removal. The equipment should be disconnected by removing the mains plug from the wall socket when left unused for a long period of time (for example, when on vacation). D3-4-2-2-1a_A1_En

POWER-CORD CAUTION

Handle the power cord by the plug. Do not pull out the plug by tugging the cord and never touch the power cord when your hands are wet as this could cause a short circuit or electric shock. Do not place the unit, a piece of furniture, etc., on the power cord, or pinch the cord. Never make a knot in the cord or tie it with other cords. The power cords should be routed such that they are not likely to be stepped on. A damaged power cord can cause a fire or give you an electrical shock. Check the power cord once in a while. When you find it damaged, ask your nearest PIONEER authorized service center or your dealer for a replacement.

S002*A1En

CAUTION

The STANDBY/ON switch on this unit will not completely shut off all power from the AC outlet. Since the power cord serves as the main disconnect device for the unit, you will need to unplug it from the AC outlet to shut down all power. Therefore, make sure the unit has been installed so that the power cord can be easily unplugged from the AC outlet in case of an accident. To avoid fire hazard, the power cord should also be unplugged from the AC outlet when left unused for a long period of time (for example, when on vacation). D3-4-2-2a* A1_EN

AC adapter CAUTION

  • Make sure to grasp the body of the AC adapter when removing it from the power outlet. If you pull the power cord, it may become damaged which could lead to fire and/or electrocution.
  • Do not attempt to plug in or remove the AC adapter with wet hands. This may result in electrocution.
  • Do not insert the power cord of AC adapter into a power outlet where the connection remains loose despite inserting the prongs all the way into the outlet. Heat may be generated which could lead to fire. Consult with the retailer or an electrician regarding replacement of the power outlet.

Store the AC adapter out of the reach of children and infants.

The AC adapter cord may accidentally wind around the neck and it may cause suffocation.

  • When loading the batteries into the remote control, set them in the proper direction, as indicated by the polarity marks ( and ).
  • Do not heat batteries, disassemble them, or throw them into flames or water.

WARNING

  • Batteries may have different voltages, even if they are the same size and shape. Do not use different types of batteries together.
  • To prevent leakage of battery fluid, remove the batteries if you do not plan to use the remote control for a long period of time (1 month or more). If the fluid should leak, wipe it carefully off the inside of the case, then insert new batteries.

Chapter 9: Music server

This unit can play audio files stored on PCs or other components on a Local Area Network (LAN).

Introduction

This unit allows you to listen to audio files or listen to Internet radio stations on a computer or other component connected to the unit via LAN interface. This chapter describes the setup and playback procedures required to enjoy these features. It is advisory that you also refer to the operation manual supplied with your network component.

  • Photo or video files cannot be played back.
  • With Windows Media Player 11 or Windows Media Player 12, you can even play back copyrighted audio files on this unit.

About playable DLNA network devices

This unit allows you to play music on media servers connected on an identical Local Area Network (LAN) as the unit. This unit allows you to play files stored on the following devices:

  • PCs running Microsoft Windows Vista or XP with Windows Media Player 11 installed
  • PCs running Microsoft Windows 7 with Windows Media Player 12 installed
  • DLNA-compatible digital media servers (on PCs or other components)

Files stored in a PC or DMS (Digital Media Server) as described above can be played via command from an external Digital Media Controller (DMC). Devices controlled by this DMC to play files are called DMRs (Digital Media Renderers). This unit supports this DMR function. When in the DMR mode, such operations as playing and stopping files can be performed from the external controller. Volume adjustment and the muting control are also possible. The DMR mode is canceled if the remote control unit is operated while in the DMR mode (aside from certain buttons, including the VOLUME + /-, MUTE and DISP OFF).

Depending on the external controller being used, playback may be interrupted when the volume is adjusted from the controller. In this case, adjust the volume from the unit or remote control.

Using AirPlay on iPod touch, iPhone, iPad and iTunes

This unit supports AirPlay audio streaming from iPod touch (2nd, 3rd and 4th generations), iPhone 4, iPhone 3GS, iPad with iOS 4.2 or later, and iTunes 10.1 (Mac and PC) or later.

To use AirPlay, select your unit on your iPod touch, iPhone, iPad or in iTunes and start playback.

Input to the unit will switch automatically when AirPlay is in use.

The following operations can be performed when in AirPlay mode:

  • Adjustment of the unit's volume from iPod touch, iPhone, iPad or iTunes.
  • Pause/resume, next/previous track, and shuffle/repeat from the remote control of the unit.
  • Display of the currently playing track information on the unit's main display, including artist, song/album name and album artwork.2

PIONEER X-SMC3-S - Using AirPlay on iPod touch, iPhone, iPad and iTunes - 1

Tip

  • A network environment is required to use AirPlay.
  • The unit's name that shows up in the AirPlay UI on iPod touch, iPhone, iPad and iTunes can be changed by Friendly Name from Network Setting.
  • AirPlay provided on this unit has been developed and tested based on the software versions for the iPod touch, iPhone, iPad and the software versions for iTunes that are indicated on the Pioneer website. AirPlay may not be compatible with iPod touch, iPhone, iPad or iTunes software versions other than those indicated on the Pioneer website.

About the DHCP server function

To play back audio files stored on components on the network, you must turn on the DHCP server function of your router.

In case your router does not have the built-in DHCP server function, it is necessary to set up the network manually. Otherwise, you cannot play back audio files stored on components on the network or listen to Internet radio stations. See Network setting on page 29 for more on this.

Authorizing this unit

This unit must be authorized to enable playback. The unit is automatically authorized when it is connected to a PC over a network. If not, please authorize this unit manually on the PC. The authorization (or permission) method for access varies depending on the type of server currently being connected. For more information on authorizing this unit, refer to the instruction manual of your server.
