Your DABMAN i550 CD is a network device, which should be integrated into your network like all such devices. By connecting to a home network with an internet connection, you have access to over 25,000 radio stations. By integrating the device into a home network, you can also control it from a tablet or smartphone via an app. However, you can also just use your radio as a DAB+ receiver. Information about the DAB+ reception in your region can be found on www.digitalradio.de for example. To connect the device to the Internet, you need the following:

• An Internet connection (e.g. DSL, ideally with a flat rate).

• A router for Internet access, for wireless operation a so-called W-LAN router (Wireless LAN/WIFI).

• For WIFI integration: Your network key (WEP, WPA or WPA2) This, like any key, is used to secure against unauthorised access and has been set up with your network. To access a network secured in this way, the key must be entered into the radio later on. If your network does not have a key, the device can connect to the Internet without entering it. NOTE! If you are not sure whether you are using such a key in your network, just try it without entering it first! If the device does not work afterwards, repeat the setup procedure. You should know the key then, however, If necessary, ask the person who set up your network for help. The WIFI password can often be found on the router’s bottom side, unless the key has been changed manually. Alternatively, the device can also be connected to the internet router via a LAN cable. The radio can be controlled using both the device buttons as well as the remote control. The remote control is the more convenient and easier way to operate the DABMAN i550 CD. For this reason, this manual mainly explains how to set up and operate the radio using the included remote control. Connect the radio to the supplied power adpater (chapter 4.2 Connection 17) and establish the power supply. During the first start-up, a setup wizard starts to guide you through the one-time setup. During the first start-up, a setup wizard starts to guide you through the one-time setup. Select the answer using the navigation dial or the ‘Left’ and ‘Right’ buttons on the remote control. In the first step, select the menu language.81

In this step, confirm the privacy notes shown in the display. Only when they are confir- med can you connect the device to the Internet to receive Internet radio stations. Select “Yes” to start the setup wizard. Select the time format 12 h or 24 h in the next step. You can retrieve the current time from the Internet or from a DAB+ station. This ensures that the radio is always set to the correct and current time. In this case please select ‘Update by the Internet’ or ‘Update by DAB’. If you prefer to manually set the time, please select ‘No update’. In the next step, please select your time zone.

In the next step, please select the time zone you are in. For Germany, please select UTC + 1:00 and confirm with OK. Then select whether the device should automatically switch the time from summer to winter time or from winter to summer time. If you confirm this step with “Yes”, the Internet connection that you set in the next steps will be automatically re-established every time the device is switched off and on. In the next step, select whether you want the radio to connect to the network automatically the next time it is turned on. To connect to the Internet, in the next step confirm that you live in ‘most of Europe’.

The device then searches for all available networks. Please select your WIFI network on the display and confirm with OK. If your router, to which you want to register the radio, has a WPS function, you can select the line “Press button” in this item. Then press the WPS function of your router. This will auto- matically establish the connection. For information on the WPS function of your router, please refer to the user manual of your router. Select the “Skip WPS” line if your router does not sup- port WPS function. If your router does not support WPS function and you have se- lected “Skip WPS” in the previous step, you still need to enter the password to connect to the WIFI. Navigate the selection as usual using the navigation dial. Confirm the completed key with OK. The “OK” field can also be reached via the navigation dial. If the connection was successful, this message appears.

Following a successful setup, internet radio stations will be avai- lable. Select “Internet Radio” from the main menu and confirm your selection. In the menu that follows, you can either jump directly to one of the last stations you listened to, display the complete station list, go to the system settings or – if you change your mind – return to the main menu. If you decide to use the station list, navigate to the station of your choice in the following submenu – depending on your per- sonal taste. Due to the large number of available stations worldwide, our database is clearly sorted by countries, genres, popular stations, etc. and is always kept up to date. The playback screen provides information about the station being played and, if transmitted, the station or artist and title of the song being played. To adjust the volume during playback, use the volume control on the device or the buttons on the remote control.

7.1 The network assistant

In order for the device to function as an Internet radio, the radio must be connected to a network with Internet access. If you have not already done so in the initial installation, you can call the Network Wizard at any time to establish a network connection. Press the MODE button to enter the source menu of the device. Use the right/left arrow buttons to select the internet radio source here and confirm with OK. Press and hold the Menu button until the main menu appears. Switch to the System Settings menu item and confirm with OK. Then select the Internet Settings item and confirm with OK. Select the Network Wizard item and confirm with OK. The radio then displays all available WIFI networks. If desired or necessary, you can choose a different network here. In the case of WIFI networks that you have previously logged into, you will not have to enter any password.

In the Internet Settings you will find more menu items under which you can change the network settings of your radio. PBC WIFI setup PBC stands for Push Button Configuration. Here you can connect your DABMAN i550 CD via WPS (WIFI protected setup) to a router, if this is supported. Further relevant information is provided in your router’s manual. Display settings This shows all the relevant information about the current connection of your DABMAN i550 CD with the network. There you can check whether the WIFI or DHCP is active or see your MAC address, SSID, IP address or the primary DNS. WIFI region In part, other countries (or hemispheres) use different WIFI frequencies or broadcasting levels. So should you take your device to the United States, for example, it is sensible to inform your DABMAN i550 CD about this. Manual settings Here you can switch between ‘Cable’ and ‘wireless’, activate or deactivate DHCP or do a few other things. PIN for apps Here you can change the PIN for the remote access to your DABMAN i550 CD. The default setting is ‘1234’. Should you use this function, we highly recommend changing this rather unoriginal password. Delete profile Would you like to lend your DABMAN i550 CD to someone else but remove access to your network beforehand? You can easily do that here. Maintain connection In standby mode, the DABMAN i550 CD can maintain or disconnect from an Internet connection. If you do not maintain the internet connection in standby mode, the DABMAN i550 CD must reconnect to the internet when you turn it on. The DABMAN i550 CD thus needs a bit more time until you can hear the first station. If you maintain an Internet connection, the switching on process is significantly faster.

A wireless signal is always transmitted directly from point to point or from antenna to antenna. The quality of a wireless connection therefore depends on any obstacles that have to be overcome in the air or on the way from the DABMAN to the opposite device. This means that a setup position with a shorter distance can in fact result in a poorer connection. The signal quality decreases despite the shorter distance. However, the following applies: the more transmission power the router has, the greater the reach! 7.3. Setting up the wireless connection on the radio To connect the device to your network, the DABMAN i550 CD will start the wizard to connect to your network. It starts by listing all the networks found. You should find yours among them, too. Now please select the network which you would like to connect to. If the network you are looking for does not appear, you can use the ‘Rescan’ menu item to repeat the search. After selecting the network, you must now enter the network password. At the least if your WIFI router has been encrypted. The passwords for your WIFI router are entered via the naviga- tion dial: By turning the dial you select the letters and numbers; by pressing the dial you confirm your entry, You can find the special characters by scrolling on with the dial. Once the password has been completely entered, go to the [ok] field. Please do not confirm each letter with [ok] as this would lead to cancelling the entry. After confirming with the OK button, the DABMAN i550 CD sends the password to the router (“Please wait” is displayed), which – after successful adjustment – logs in the DABMAN i550 CD (“Connected” is displayed). If everything was successful, the network setup wizard will dis- play the message “Connected”. Pressing the navigation dial takes you back to the main menu. Your entries and settings are stored in the device and do not have to be made a second time. The next time you switch on the DABMAN i550 CD, it will automatically find your router and con- nect to the network.

7.3 Manually setting up the wireless connection on the radio

In some networks, static IP addresses are distributed for certain access conditions – the administrator will tell you what these should be. See “static IP” Please select Switch off DHCP in the following menu. Here you can enter the corresponding values with the navigation dial. To reach large numbers (e.g. 192) faster, turn the dial to the left. To move to the next window, press the dial or the OK button on your remote control once. After that, the gateway address must be specified. Now just enter the DNS address. Now a connection is established and the settings are saved in the DABMAN.

WPS is an easy way to set up the DABMAN i550 CD in a net- work. For the connection to work, please note that your router must also support this protocol. To use this connection setup, please press the WPS button (PBC) on your router and then press OK on your DABMAN i550 CD. Regarding your router’s configuration, please refer to the corre- sponding manual.

For more information, press the [Info] button at the top of your DABMAN i550 CD. This then displays additional information about the reception quality, the technical data of the stream, the programme and the music genre preferred and the utilisation of the playback buffer.

8.3 Receiving DAB/DAB+ stations

Press the MODE button and switch to the DAB+ field. Confirm with OK. Station list In the DAB menu you will find the sub-item “Station list”. By pressing the navigation dial, you can select from the stations found by the scan there. You can call up the next or previous station with the navigation dial directly on the radio or on the remote control, without first having to return to the station list. Scan / full scan Use the navigation dial to select ‘DAB’ from the main menu and confirm by pressing the navigation dial. Then select ‘Full scan’ and the radio will find all DAB and DAB+ stations available in your reception area.

Manual settings In this area you can change the DAB reception frequencies manually. Clean up transmitter If a question mark appears before the station name in the station list, the DABMAN i550 CD cannot receive this station. This may be due to a poor reception, but also to a change on the part of the broadcasters. To prevent unavailable stations from being displayed in the station list in a confusing way, select the submenu item ‘Clean up station list’ in the DAB menu and confirm the security prompt with ‘Yes’. DRC DRC is short for Dynamic Range Control. This function allows you to adjust volume differences between different DAB+/DAB stations, resulting in a more homogeneous listening experience. > Press and hold MENU, then choose > DRC to select the desired compression ratio . > Use the navigation dial to select the compression rate: DRC high - high compression DRC low - low compression DRC off - compression switched off. > Confirm using the OK button. Station order The sub-item “Station order” in the DAB menu leaves it up to you to decide whether you prefer to have the broadcast stations in the station list sorted in alphanumeric order or by individual ensembles (these are groups of stations broadcast together in a “package”) or by valid (stations without a question mark in front of the station name).

The favourites memory can store up to 30 stations in the DAB range. The stored station are retained even after a power failure. > Set the desired stations. > Press and hold the PRESET button on the device until the Favourites Memory List appears. > Use the SCROLL&SELECT dial to select a memory location 1...30 and press the SCROLL&SELECT dial. [saved] appears in the display. Alternatively: > Press and hold one of the number buttons on the remote control until [saved] appears in the display. > Repeat the procedure to save more stations.

8.4.1. Selecting saved stations

> Briefly press the PRESET button on the device. > Use the SCROLL&SELECT dial to select a memory location 1...30 and press the SCROLL&SELECT dial to play the station stored on it. Alternatively: > Press the desired number button 1 ... 12 on the remote control. If you have not stored a station on the selected programme slot, [save slot empty] appears in the display. > Press the INFO button repeatedly until the signal strength is displayed: The level of the bar indicates the current level. Stations whose signal strength is below the required minimum signal strength do not send a sufficient signal. If necessary, adjust the antenna again. Under the menu item Manual Setting, you can select the reception stations individually and display their signal strength. This way, you can optimally align the telescopic antenna towards stations that are difficult to receive at your radio’s location. This means that stations that have not yet been found in a scan can still be found and played. > To do so, select MENU > Set Manually and then select a station frequency. The signal strength of this frequency will be displayed. > Pressing the INFO button several times switches through different information such as programme type, multiplex name, frequency, signal error rate, data bit rate programme format, date, DLS.

8.4.2. Adjust station order

> Press and hold the MENU key, and then select “Station order”. > Select a sorting type and confirm your selection with OK.

8.5 Receiving FM stations

Scan Press the MODE button and switch to the FM Radio field. Confirm with OK. The device switches to the last reception frequency set. To start a frequency scan to the next available station, briefly press and hold the up arrow key. The radio searches for the next receivable station. As soon as a station has been found, the search will stop. Manual station search As an alternative to a scan, you can use the Skip Back/Skip Forward buttons either directly on the radio or on the remote control to select specific frequencies and thus find the stations located there. Scan settings If you press the Back button of your radio (optionally of the remote control) while the FM radio is playing, you can specify in the submenu ‘Scan setting’ whether the device should only consider stations with good transmission quality for the scan. Audio settings If FM reception is generally poor, you can specify in the ‘Audio setting’ sub-item that the stations are only to be played back in mono and no longer in stereo. This can significantly reduce the noise in the signal.

8.6 Receive Internet radio

In the previous section we already explained the impressive possibilities of the Internet radio function of your DABMAN i550 CD. The big advantage over the traditional way of listening to Internet radio via your computer's web browser is that your DABMAN i550 CD accesses the Internet WITHOUT the computer running – simply via your router, which establishes the connection to the Internet. The list of Internet radio stations is constantly updated and expanded. This ensures that, with all the changes that the Internet is constantly subject to, there is always an up-to-the-minute and, above all, reliably functioning range of Internet radio stations. When accessing the Internet radio menu, the radio automatically calls up the current version directly online, thus ensuring that it is always up to date. Use the usual navigation to zap through the station list, which is already sorted. If you come across a station that you would like to find again, simply press one of the station keys during playback for approx. 2 seconds to store the station and call it up again later if necessary using the same number key. An asterisk (*) then appears in the bottom line of the display, followed by the respective station key - e.g. ‘*1’. Further options for managing favourites will also be presented later.

8.6.1. Internet radio station selection

There are various ways to find the right station here from the abundance of stations. Under [Local Stations Germany] you will only find national stations. And since there are a lot of them, we have sorted them for you again according music style and content. TIP: Many of the radio's functions can be controlled via an app for mobile devices in addition to the remote control, provided you have a mobile device with an Android or IOS operating system. Please also read chapter ??. UNDOK APP

> Press and hold the PRESET button on the device until [save presettings] appears in the display. You can now use the SCROLL&SELECT dial or the up/down arrow buttons on the remote control to select one of 30 favourites save slots. To save the station, press the OK button when the marker is in the desired Favourites save slot. The display then shows [saved]. Alternatively: > Press and hold a number button on the remote control to store a station on one of the corresponding number buttons. Press the INFO button to obtain additional information about the current station.

8.6.3. Open internet radio favourites

> Briefly press the PRESET button on the device and use the SCROLL&SELECT dial or the up/down arrow keys on the remote control to select a station from the station memory list. Press the OK button to play that station. Alternatively: > Press and hold one of the number buttons on the remote control to select the station directly.

8.6.4. Add a new Internet radio URL

In order to add a new URL of a radio station, please register your DABMAN i550 CD on www.wifiradio-frontier.com. You can request your personal access code under the Help menu item on the radio. With the access code you can then register your radio and add a new URL. The new station appears on your radio under “My added stations”.96

8.7 Music player (UPnP)

(Playback from a UPnP server) Server software running on a computer or other device lets you share music files for network playback. In the case of the DABMAN i550 CD, it must be a UPnP compatible server (UPnP: Universal Plug and Play) which provides the data. A simple file share, as known from the Windows network world, is not readable this way. In contrast to an inflexible static file sharing, the DABMAN i550 CD offers flexible sorting via a virtual UPnP media server, which makes the manageability of your library more flexible by comparison: a track can be found via the artist, the genre, the album and even by means of the folder structure. UPnP allows the user to receive data from the network. For example, if you have shared your music collection on your computer with a UPnP programme (e.g. Windows Media Player 11/12), you can access and play tracks from the living room or kitchen with the DABMAN i550 CD. If the music library is stored centrally on a network hard drive (NAS), this even works without a computer. As a network player, your radio then directly accesses the music tracks on the drive. The [Music player] menu item can be accessed via either the main menu or the Mode button, which can be found both on your DABMAN i550 CD and on the remote control. If you choose this option, you will be offered two icons: Internet radio and music player. In the music player menu, you can access media shared on your network and also set the playback mode. Make your choice using the navigation dial or the ‘Left/right’ buttons of the remote control. If you wait for too long, the screen with return to the main menu.

Your DABMAN i550 CD has its own favourites list, which can be found in the menu under “InternetRadio”. To create favourites, press and hold the navigation dial or OK button on the remote control for a few seconds. Once a favourite is stored, the radio acknowledges it in the display with the message “Favourite added”. To remove a favourite, select it from the Favourites menu (highlighted in white) and press and hold the navigation dial or OK button on the remote control for a few seconds. A “Remove favourite” menu will appear. Please note that contents of UPnP servers cannot be saved as favourites because they are not permanently available.

With your DABMAN i550 CD, you can subscribe not only to radio stations and broadcasts, but also to podcasts from around the world. As you can see, the podcasts in [Countries] are sorted by continent. Under [Formats] you can also search for a specific topic. You can also - as with radio stations - search for a podcast you know by entering its name.

The recently played tracks and received radio stations are listed under the menu item “Last listened to”. That way, even those stations can be found without any problems that are believed to be lost forever following a brief memory loss.

8.11 Sleep timer / snooze

Once activated, it ensures that the DABMAN i550 CD automatically turns off after the preset time, which is especially beneficial if you have fallen asleep in the meantime. You can extend the snooze time up to one hour in 15-minute increments; the default setting, of course, is “Snooze off”.

The menu Your radio features 2 integrated alarm clocks. The alarm can be activated and the time set in the menu. An alarm sound, the last station you listened to or your favourites are available as the source. To adjust the volume, the source is played and you can adjust the desired level by using the navigation dial.

8.13 Receiving time information via DAB, FM or Internet

You do not need to set the integrated clock of the DABMAN i550 CD yourself, as many broadcasters transmit a coded time signal together with their programme. However, this only works if you receive the corresponding stations in sufficient quality. Use the navigation dial to select “System settings” in the main menu, then “Date/Time” and finally “Auto update”. Now you can choose whether you want to receive the time signal from radio stations via DAB/ DAB+, FM or the Internet.

8.14.1. General Information about CDs/MP3 CDs

The DABMAN i550 CD is suitable for music CDs recorded with audio data (CD-DA or MP3 for CD-R and CD-RW). MP3 formats must be created with ISO 9660 Level 1 or Level 2. Multisession CDs cannot be read. In MP3 mode, the terms “Folder” = album and ‘track’ are decisive. “Album” corresponds to the folder on the PC, “track” to the file on the PC or a CD-DA title. The device alphabetically sorts the albums or tracks of an album by name. If you prefer a different order, change the name of the track or album and put a number in front of the name. When burning audio data onto a CD-R and CD-RW, a number of problems can arise that can sometimes interfere with a smooth playback. This is caused by faulty software and hardware settings or the blank CD used. If such errors occur, you should contact the customer service of your CD burner/ burning software manufacturer or look for appropriate information - e.g. on the Internet. When you make audio CDs, follow the law and do not infringe the copyrights of third parties. The device can play CDs with MP3 data and normal audio CDs (CD-DA). Do not use other extensions, such as

*.doc, *.txt, *.pdf, etc. when converting audio files to MP3. Music files with the extension *.AAC, *.DLF, *.M3U and *.PLS or *.WMA cannot be played. Due to the variety of different encoder software, it cannot be guaranteed that every MP3 file can be played without problems. In case of faulty tracks/files, the playback will be continued at the next track/file. It is advantageous to burn at low speed when burning the CD and to create the CD as single session and finalised. The CD player is compatible with CD, CD-R/RW and MP3 CD media. You can play all the discs mentioned here (disc size 12 cm CDs, playing time 74 min.) on this device. When transporting the device, remove the disc from the drive. This will prevent damage to the CD player and the disc. The playback quality of MP3 CDs depends on the bit rate setting and the burning software used.

> Press the MENU button, and then select Main Menu > CD. > To insert a CD, press the eject button on the device or on the remote control and carefully insert the CD with the label pointed up on the CD tray. Make sure that the CD is not crooked. > To insert or remove the CD, please only touch the edge of the CD. > Wait until the CD contents have been completely read before operating to ensure that all the required information has been read from the CD. Especially with MP3 CDs this process can take some time. > Press the Play/Pause button on the remote control (8) to start/pause playback (the play time flashed in the display). > Press the STOP button on the remote control (6) to stop playback. > The display shows the total number of tracks. > Always stop playback before removing a CD. > If there is no playback, the DABMAN i550 CD will enter standby mode after approx. 15 minutes.

You can select folders/albums using the arrow buttons on the remote control. Use the skip forward/backward buttons (7, 9) on the remote control to skip to the next or previous track. The display shows the track number set in each case (F = folder/album, T = track).100

You can run a fast forward or backward search in the current track to find a specific part. Playback does not occur during the search. > Press and hold the track skip forward/back buttons (7, 9) on the remote control to perform fast forward/reverse within the track for the duration of the press.

8.14.5. Repeat function

You can choose to repeat a track, the entire folder/album (MP3 CDs only), or all tracks on the CD. > To do this, press the Back button on your remote control (21) again. The selected mode will be shown on the display (Repeat Track , Repeat Folder/Album , Repeat All Tracks ). > To turn the function off again, press the Back key (21). Repeat until the Repeat indicator is no longer displayed.

8.14.6. Shuffle playback

With the random function you can play the tracks of a CD in any mixed order. > During playback, press the Shuffle button (22) on the remote control repeatedly until the shuffle character appears in the display. > To switch the function off again, press the Shuffle button (22) again.

8.14.7. Notes on the CD

Always store the CD in its case and only touch the edges. The surface shimmering in rainbow colours must not be touched and should always be clean. Do not stick paper or tape on the label side of the disc. The CD should be kept away from direct sunlight and heat sources such as radiators. A CD must also not be placed in a car parked directly in the sun, as the inside temperature in the car can rise extremely high. Clean fingerprints and dust on the recorded side with a clean, dry cleaning cloth. Do not use disc care products such as disc spray, cleaning fluids, antistatic spray or solvents such as petrol, thinner or other commercially available chemicals to clean CDs. Stubborn stains can potentially be removed with a damp chamois leather. Wipe from the centre towards the disc’s edges. Circular movements during cleaning cause scratches. These can cause playback errors.

In the System Settings menu, you can find information about your DABMAN i550 CD and make and save settings on the device. To enter the system settings, press and hold the MENU/INFO button. Switch to the System Settings field and confirm with OK. Now select the desired item to make settings.

The equaliser allows you to adjust the sound of the DABMAN to your The different programs balance the bass, midrange and treble differently, so there is something for every ear. For the outputs that are not amplified (analog, digital) the equaliser is of course not considered, the sound is reproduced here without alteration in any case.The following equaliser options are available: Normal, Middle, Jazz, Rock, Soundtrack, Classic, Pop, News. If you do not like any of the presets, you can create and store your own under “Configuration My Equaliser”, where bass and treble can be raised or lowered by 14 dB each. You can then retrieve your saved settings by selecting “My Equaliser”.

9.2 Audio stream quality

In this menu item you can set the audio quality of Internet radio streams. The “High quality” setting is recommended here. This setting uses the highest possible transmission rate provided by the Internet radio provider.102

It is recommended to use the Auto Update setting. In this case, the time is synchronised from a selected source and is thus always set correctly. Set the format Should you wish to change the time format, this can be done under [Set format]. Choose between the 24- and American 12- hour format. Please note that the AM and PM addition is not displayed in the 12-hr format. Set time zone Under [Set time zone] you can choose your current time zone. Starting with CET (Central European Time) you can choose any zone around the globe! If you live in Germany, “Berlin” is likely the right option. Even if you live in a different city. Summer/winter time Do you live in a summer daylight savings zone? Tell your DABMAN i550 CD in this menu item, so you always have the right time – even if you forget to change it in spring and autumn.

Here you can select the language for the menu in the DABMAN i550 CD. The following languages are available: German, English, Spanish, French, Italian and Dutch. Use the navigation dial to scroll through the list and confirm with the push function. With the i550 CD Back button you can return to the system settings.

Default settings Here you ran restore the radio’s factory settings. This comes in handy is you have changed settings that may prevent the device’s optimal functioning. The device is returned to its factory settings with this option. Please note that all custom settings will be lost by restoring the factory settings. You can confirm the security question by choosing Yes. Select No if you would like to cancel the process.

There is nothing that cannot be improved! That is why you should feel free to update the DABMAN i550 CD’s firmware. When calling up this menu, the DABMAN i550 CD will connect to the update server to check whether an update is available. After that you can install it or view even more additional information. The system will restart after a successful installation. If you prefer to not do this manually all the time, please select ‘Automatic updates’. If you prefer doing this yourself from time to time, then click on “Search for updates”. NOTE! All settings made by you are lost during a firmware update. (e.g. network profiles, station favourites, equaliser settings). These have to be made again after the update.

This menu displays all information relevant to the device. There you will find the installed firmware version and the hardware ID of your DABMAN i550 CD. The information found here is also very helpful should you require support. Press the Back button to return to the settings.

9.8 Display brightness

Here you can set when to automatically switch off the lighting of the colour display. You can either switch off the automatic mode completely [On] or select between 10 and 180 seconds. You can also adjust the contrast of the display both in standby and in operation. Three levels are available: [High], [Medium] and [Low]. The default setting is [High]

Set the display of the time in standby mode here. You can choose an analogue or digital display. Via the Bluetooth connection, the radio can play media (locally stored MP3 files, streamed music, web radio) on an external device. The Bluetooth mode is recommended if you are near the radio with a device to be connected and no network connection is available. Select Bluetooth from the menu. A Bluetooth connection must be established before you can send audio files to the radio via Bluetooth.

10.1 Establish a Bluetooth connection

If you have selected Bluetooth mode on the radio, it is in pairing mode and will search for Bluetooth devices to connect to. Now activate the Bluetooth function of the external device to be connected (for further details, please refer to the operating manual of that device). Search for “DABMAN i550 CD” in the list of available devices, select it and establish the connection. In the radio display, a Bluetooth symbol appears in the lower left corner.

10.2 Playing media via Bluetooth

If you have established a Bluetooth connection as described in Chapter 10.1, you can play music files stored on an external device via the DABMAN i550 CD. To do this, proceed as follows: Start playback of the music on the external device by switching to the corresponding playback function (MP3 player, etc.) or select a track from the respective playlist and start playback. You can play the sound of an external device on the DABMAN i 300 CD. The device has one analog audio input, two digital-electrical inputs and two digital-optical inputs. > Connect the external device to the audio input on the rear panel of the radio. > Press the MODE button repeatedly until [AUX IN] appears on the display. Alternatively: > Press and hold the MENU button, then select AUX IN from the main menu. To optimally set the volume, use both the volume adjuster on the radio as well as the connected device. Please note that a very low volume setting of the connected device and a correspondingly higher volume setting of the radio will also amplify annoying noise/interference to a greater extent and thus be heard more clearly. We thus recommend adjusting the volume of the DABMAN i550 CD e.g. on a DAB+ or FM station, switching to the audio input and then adjusting the volume of the connected device so that the total volume of the audio input roughly corresponds to the volume of the DAB+/ FM station. This way you can also avoid major volume differences when switching between the DABMAN i550 CD functions.

11.1 Selecting a connected audio device

To play the sound of a connected audio device, use the MODE button to select the audio input through which you want to play the sound of a connected device. Select Optical In 1 if you want to play the sound of an audio device connected via optical digital input 1 (SPDIF IN). Select Optical In 2 if you want to play the sound of an audio device connected via optical digital input 2 (SPDIF IN). Select Coaxial In 1 if you want to play the sound of an audio device connected via the electrical digital input 1 (COAXIAL IN). Select Coaxial In 2 if you want to play the sound of an audio device connected via the electrical digital input 2 (COAXIAL IN). Select RCA IN if you want to play the sound of an audio device connected via the analogue stereo RCA input. (LINE). To adjust the volume optimally, use the volume control on the radio as well as on the connected device. Please note that a very low volume setting of the connected device and a correspondingly higher volume setting of the radio will also amplify annoying noise/interference to a greater extent and thus be heard more clearly. We thus recommend adjusting the volume of the DABMAN i550 CD e.g. on a DAB+ or FM station, switching to the audio input and then adjusting the volume of the connected device so that the total volume of the audio input roughly corresponds to the volume of the DAB+/ FM station. This way you can also avoid major volume differences when switching between the DABMAN i550 CD functions.

With the i550 CD you can use Internet and DAB radio stations as well as numerous Internet music streaming services. The radio supports the offerings of the following streaming providers: Napster, Deezer, Qobuz, Tidal, Amazon Music, SPOTIFY (As of printing, subject to change at any time.) If you want to use one or more streaming services, you need to register with the respective provider. For more information on registration, please contact the respective provider. Select your music streaming provider via the MODE button and confirm with OK. Enter your credentials in the next window.

You can control your DABMAN i550 CD radio conveniently via an app available for Android and IOS, in addition to the proximity and remote controls. > > Download the UNDOK app from the google play store for Android OS, or via iTunes for IOS and install the app on your Smartphone/Tablet.

Your device is labelled with the CE mark and complies with all required EU standards. TELESTAR DIGITAL GmbH hereby declares that the device DABMAN i550 CD complies with the basic and other relevant provisions of RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU, RE Directive 2014/53/EU as well as the ErP Directive 2009/125/EC. The declaration of conformity for this product is available at: www.telestar.de/de_DE/Konformitaetserklaerung/352-529/?productID=23077 Distributor: TELESTAR DIGITAL GmbH Am Weiher 14 56766 Ulmen

Access Point (AP) An access point is a network component to which the WIFI clients (terminal devices) connect in order to exchange data with the Internet or other clients. It is identified by means of the SSID. The DABMAN can connect to an AP to receive data from various other computers in the local network or audio streams from the internet. DHCP An abbreviation that stands for Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol and enables the dynamic assignment of IP addresses and configuration parameters of a computer using a suitable server. DHCP enables the integration of an additional network component without configuration. The configuration assistant of the DABMAN enables DHCP so that no further configuration parameters are required. IEEE 802.11 b/g Describes the industry standard for wireless networks. The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers is the publisher. Within this context, b denotes a maximum data transfer rate of 11 Mbit/s and g 54 Mbit/s. Our DABMAN supports these two standards. IP (IP address) — (Internet Protocol) refers to a transmission protocol commonly used in computer networks. Each client receives an IP address (like a house number) which occurs as a sequence of four pairs of numbers separated by a period (e.g. 127.80.1.34). This assignment is done automatically with DHCP. If the DABMAN is not configured via DHCP, the IP address can be entered manually. LAN A LAN (Local Area Network) is a computer network in a limited area (usually a cable-based network). MAC address (Media Access Control Address) is the hardware address of each network component that is used for unique identification. It is fixed and cannot be changed. Since the DABMAN is a network component, it also has a fixed MAC address. This can be found on the underside of the device. Router A router is a connection computer that ensures that data packages sent within a network are forwarded to the correct target computer (client). A router often links different networks with each other, for example WIFI and LAN. The DABMAN is also such a client that receives its data packages in this way.

SSID (ESSID) Service Set Identifier (SSID) or Network Name is a radio network identifier based on IEEE 802.11. Each wireless LAN has a configurable SSID or ESSID (Extended Service Set Identifier) to uniquely identify the wireless network. Hence it represents the network’s name. The radio automatically detects all found networks, but also offers the option to enter an SSID manually. UPnP This abbreviation stands for Universal Plug and Play and is based on a number of standardised network protocols. It is used for the manufacturer-independent control of devices (stereo system, printer, router, house systems) via an IP-based network. The radio is a UPnP device that can receive data by means of the appropriate software. WEP encryption (Wired-Equivalent-Privacy) describes an encryption standard for WIFIs. Of course, DABMAN WEP can also receive and interpret WEP-encrypted data. WPA encryption Like WEP, WPA is a standard for encryption and authentication. WPA was developed to address the basic weaknesses of WEP encryption. WPA can therefore be regarded as the safe successor to WEP. WPS WIFI Protected Setup is a standard for a simple and secure way of connecting in a wireless network. WIFI Certificate for WIFI products that comply with IEEE802.11 standards and are compatible with other products. The radio also meets the technical standards of the WIFI consortium. WLAN Also known as Wireless LAN or Wireless Local Area Network, it is a wireless local area network used to transmit data.
