After the initial setup, radio is ready for operating in most Modes.

Mode selection

From the Main Menu select a mode and press OK. Alternatively use Navigation knob to switch to different mode. After a brief moment radio switches to that mode. The last station or track previously used in that mode is selected. If this is not possible, radio scans for relevant stations, networks, or prompts the user for appropriate input.

Audio playback

The common local controls for audio playback are available in all listening modes:

The volume rotary control is turned to increase or decrease the sound volume. The general track controls are Play/Pause to start and stop tracks and the Next and Previous buttons to skip to the next or previous track in the current playlist.

The primary control for moving through menus and options is the knob control. Rotate the control to move up or down a menu. Once the required option or value is highlighted press the knob control. All menus and lists act as loops such that turning the control to go beyond the first or last entry in a menu or list takes you to the opposite end of the menu or list. So going up from first entry in a menu will take you to the last option in the menu, etc.

To enter the menu tree in a particular mode press long press "Menu". To move back a menu level press Back.

Each mode has a Mode menu, with options specific to that mode. For example, the FM mode menu has two mode specific options: Scan setting and Audio setting. In addition, each mode menu has one final option: Main menu>. The '>' indicates options leading to further menus.

The main menu presents an alternative method for selecting listening modes plus sleeps and alarm functions and one final option: System setting > The '>' indicates options leading to further menus.

The System setting menu presents system setting functions to allow the user to setup how the unit behaves. This includes network, time, language and software parameters.

Rotate the knob control to scroll back and forth through the loop as required. Press OK to select the currently highlighted character. If you make a mistake select the BKSP (backspace) option to remove the last character. When you have finished the words, select OK to enter the search words or password. Select CANCEL to quit the entry screen.

Selecting a network

When the Network wizard is chosen radio automatically scans for available wireless networks and presents a list of SSID's (Service Set Identifier) for the networks. Radio remembers login details for the last four wireless networks it has connected to and will automatically connect to them when they are available. If connection to a network is temporarily lost, radio will automatically reconnect.

Wi-Fi network (SSID), select a network from the list or WIRED (connect network cable to Lan connector).

Open network

If the network is open (non-encrypted), radio connects and no further details are required.

Auto-update (from DAB, FM or Network

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 internet radio portal when in any network-connected mode.

To perform a factory reset, select Menu > System settings > Factory reset Proceed > Yes.

Software update

From time to time, solution provider may make software upgrades available with bug fixes and/or additional features. You can either check manually, or set radio to check periodically automatically (this is default). If radio detects that newer software is available, it asks if you want to ahead with an update. If you agree, the new software is then downloaded and installed. After a software upgrade, all user settings are maintained.

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

Setup wizard

  2. Auto update- select clock update source or No Update
  3. Set Time/Date ( this step is only needed if the 'No Update' option is selected in Auto update)

DAB RADIO

DAB radio mode receives DAB/DAB+ digital radio and displays information about the station, stream and track playing. To enter DAB mode, either press mode and rotate the knob to cycle through the listening modes until DAB Radio is displayed, or select Menu > Main menu > DAB. The DAB radio mode menu offers the following options:

  • Station list
  • Scan
  • Manual tune
  • Prune invalid
    • DRC
  • Station order
  • Main Menu

Station List

The first time you select DAB radio mode, or if the station list is empty, radio automatically performs a full scan to see what stations are available. You may also need to start a scan manually to update the list of stations for one of the following reasons:

• Available stations change from time to time
- If reception was not good for the original scan (for example the antenna was not up), 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.

A question mark before a station in a list indicates that station is currently unavailable. Depending on the cause of the loss of signal this may be only temporary. Stations that unlikely to be available again (for example you have moved out of the broadcast range of a station), can be removed from the station list.

Scan for stations

To start a scan manually, select Menu > Scan. Once the scan is complete, the radio shows a list of available stations. The manual tune menu option allows the user to select a particular channel and display the signal strength for that channel.

Remove stations from list

To remove stations that a listed but unavailable, select Menu > Prune invalid.

Selecting stations

To listen to or change a station, select Menu > Station List and press OK knob. Scroll knob control to select station you want to listen to. Stations listed with a '?' question mark in front of them are not available. Once selected, the station plays and the screen shows 'playing' information about the station, track or show broadcast by the station. Alternatively, pressing either the ◀◀ and ▶▶ keys, jumps to the next station up or down in the station list. Preset stations can be stored and recalled.

Now playing information

While the stream is playing, the screen shows its name and DLS (Dynamic Label segment) information broadcast by the station giving real-time information such as programme name, track title and contact details. Stereo broadcasts are indicated with an icon at the top of the screen. To view further information, press Info. Each time you press Info, another set of information is displayed, cycling through DLS text, programme type, ensemble name/frequency, signal strength/error rate, bit rate/codec/channels, today's date and DL Plus (if available).

Slideshow

When slideshow is available (dependent on the broadcasted signal), the images are displayed on the left side of the screen. To cycle through the different display options (thumbnail, slide with DLS text and full screen slide) press the knob control.

Settings

Dynamic range compression (DRC)

Some DAB broadcasts offer dynamic range compression (DRC). This feature allows radios to compress the dynamic range of the output audio stream, so that the volume of quite sounds is increased, and the volume of loud sounds is reduced. This can be useful if you are listening to music with a high dynamic range in a noisy environment (for example, classical music while co-entering). To change the DRC setting for radio, select Menu > DRC, and then DRC high, DRC low or DRC off.

Note: Radio DRC setting does not have any effect if DRC data is not included in the broadcast.

Station order

You can choose the order of DAB station list to be either Alphanumeric, or Ensemble, Ensemble lists groups of stations that are broadcast together on the same ensemble, for example BBC or South Wales local. Valid lists valid stations first, alphanumerically, then off-air stations. To change station order, select Menu > Station order > then Alphanumeric or Ensemble

FM RADIO
