USE AND OPERATION

GETTING STARTED AND SETUP

The radio is easy to use. To play DAB or FM radio, all you need is a power source (a 100-240 V mains supply); For Music Player mode, you need a wired/wireless Ethernet network and a UPnP music server (e.g. a PC). For Internet-connected modes such as Internet radio, you also need a broadband Internet connection.

Numan Mini Two - GETTING STARTED AND SETUP - 1

When the radio is started for the first time, it runs through a setup wizard to configure settings for date/time and network. Once this has finished, the system is ready to use in most modes. Note: To change these settings later, select MENU > System settings > To run the setup wizard again, select MENU > System settings > Setup wizard. Select Yes to start the setup wizard. If you choose No, the next screen asks if you would like to run the wizard next time the radio is started. The system then starts without configuring time/date and network settings and enters the Main Menu.

NOTE: If power is removed while the wizard is in progress, the wizard will run again next time the radio is started.

SETTING TIME AND DATE

To change between 12 and 24 hour display, select Set 12/24 hour and then select your preference.

Numan Mini Two - SETTING TIME AND DATE - 1

The time and date can be updated manually or automatically. Withauto-update, the time and date are automatically synchronised with external clocks. Auto-update is generally more accurate.

AUTO-UPDATE

Auto-update works with data sent over DAB, FM or the Internet. The clock is only updated when in a corresponding mode, so it is best to select a mode you use regularly. DAB and FM use time signals broadcast with radio transmissions. Network uses a time signal sent from the Frontier Silicon Internet radio portal when in network-connected mode.

Numan Mini Two - AUTO-UPDATE - 1

  • Select Update from DAB, Update from FM, Update from Network or No update.
  • If you are updating from the network, set your time zone.
  • If your country uses daylight saving, the automatically updated time from the network may be wrong by one hour. When daylight savings are in effect (during the winter), turn on the Daylight savings option to rectify this. Note that if you are updating the time from DAB or FM, the Daylight savings option has no effect on the clock's time. The radio will auto-update from the selected source when time information is available.

MANUAL SET

Numan Mini Two - MANUAL SET - 1

If you set No update, the wizard now prompts you to set the time and date manually. The date and time are displayed as dd-mm-yyyy and hh:mm AM/PM with the first value, dd, active (flashing). Adjust each value with the Select control. As each value is set, the next value becomes active and flashes.

Numan Mini Two - MANUAL SET - 2

NETWORK

The radio is compatible with all common network protocols and encryption methods.

Numan Mini Two - NETWORK - 1

To connect the radio to your network, you need a Wi-Fi wireless router, together with password key if set. Select WLAN region/country > Wi-Fi network (SSID), and then select a network from the list. If the network is open (non-encrypted), the radio connects without any further ado.

Numan Mini Two - NETWORK - 2

If your network is standard encrypted enter the network's key (password), use the Select control to move the cursor through the characters and select. As each character is selected, the key is built up near the top of the display. There are three options accessible by turning Select back before the first characters (0123...) - Backspace, OK and Cancel.

Numan Mini Two - NETWORK - 3

SETTING UP A MUSIC SERVER

In order for the radio to play music files from a computer, the computer must be set up to share files or media. UPnP media sharing allows devices like the radio to play music from a shared media library, navigating through tag menus such as Artist, Album or Genre.

If you are running a suitable server system such as a PC with Windows Media Player 10 or later (WMP), and your music library is well-tagged, then it is recommended to use media sharing. Only the UPnP server needs to be set up.

NOTE: iTunes does not currently work as a UPnP media server, but there are add-ons available to work with an iTunes library.

SHARING MEDIA WITH WINDOWS MEDIA PLAYER

The most common UPnP server is Windows Media Player (10 or later). Alternatively, other UPnP platforms and servers may be used. To set up WMP for media sharing, perform the following steps:

  • Ensure that the PC is connected to the network.
  • Ensure that the radio is powered on and connected to the same network.
  • In WMP, add to the media library the audio files and folders you want to share with the radio:

Library > Add to Library.

  • In WMP, enable media sharing: Library > Media sharing.
  • Setup can differ depending on which version of WMP you have.

Numan Mini Two - Library > Add to Library. - 1

WINDOWS 7 STREAMING MEDIA FEATURE

To set-up the radio to be controlled and to stream music via Windows Media Player 12 (Windows 7 only), perform the following steps:

  • Ensure that the PC is connected to the network.
  • Ensure that the radio is powered on and connected to the same network. Note: The radio must be in an Internet radio mode to be detected.
    From the Windows 7 main screen, select Start > Devices and Printers.
  • Select the Add a device tab in the top left of the Devices and Printers window and follow the instruction prompts given by the wizard.

The portal also enables multiple lists of favourite stations that you can personalise, for example Andy's stations, Jo's favourites, Talkshows. To use the favourites feature, register your radio with the portal website as described on page 53. If you have several Frontier Silicon radios, you can register them all on the same account so that each radio has access to your favourite's lists.

MENU > Scan settings > Strong stations only? > YES.

SOFTWARE UPDATE AND FACTORY RESET

SOFTWARE UPDATE

From time to time, the radio may make software upgrades available with bug Fixes and/or additional features. You can either check manually, or set the radio to check periodically automatically (this is the default). If the radio detects that newer software is available, it asks if you want to go ahead with an update. If you agree, the new software is then downloaded and installed. After a software upgrade, all user settings are maintained. To turn automatic checking on or off, select: MENU > System settings > Software update > Auto check settings.

CAUTION:

Before starting a software upgrade, ensure that the radio is plugged into a stable mains power connection. Disconnecting power during a software update may permanently damage the unit..

FACTORY RESET

A factory reset resets all user settings to default values, so time/date, network configuration and presets are lost. However, the radio's current software version is maintained, as is registration with the Internet radio portal. Internet radio favourites therefore remain unless you re-register your radio with another account on the portal website. To perform a factory reset, select: MENU > System settings > Factory reset > Proceed > YES.
