7. Network con guration

The WLAN loudspeaker is connected to the network via WLAN or LAN. The WLAN antenna on the loudspeaker receives the signals from your network router. In order to connect the WLAN loudspeaker to your home network via LAN, connect a network cable to the ETHERNET socket . 7.1. Network requirements The network must meet the following requirements for the device to be able to ac- cess music files on the network:

• The router used for the network must have a DHCP server function so it can au- tomatically assign the device a network IP address. Otherwise, set the DHCP function in the web interface to manual.

• The media sharing function for UPNP must be set up on the router.

8. Connecting to a power supply

9. Switching the loudspeaker on and o

Switching on the loudspeaker Press the MODE/STANDBY button on the loudspeaker to turn it on. The loudspeaker switches to the last mode set. Standby mode Press and hold down the MODE/STANDBY button until the Bluetooth and WIFI LEDs go out to switch the loudspeaker to standby mode. In standby mode, the loudspeaker maintains its network connection so that it is im- mediately available to use when it is switched on again. The loudspeaker consumes more electricity in this operating mode than in standby mode.

10. Using the device for the rst time

• You can connect the WLAN loudspeaker to your router's existing network with the WPS button.

• When using the WLAN loudspeaker for the first time, position it as near as possi- ble to the router in order to guarantee a clear WLAN signal during the setup pro- cess. Then move the WLAN loudspeaker to the desired position within the range of the WLAN signal. 10.1. WLAN connection via WPS If your router has a WPS button, you can easily connect the loudspeaker to the net- work using this button: Press the WPS button on the WLAN loudspeaker until the WIFI LED flashes in yellow. Now press the WPS button on the WLAN router. NOTICE! Please also refer to the instructions for the router. The device will now establish a connection with the network. The WIFI LED flashes quickly while the connection is being established.

• Once a connection has been successfully established, the WIFI LED will light up permanently in yellow.

• The device can now play back audio signals via the network.

• The device saves the connection data so that it does not need to be entered again when the device is switched on again. 43059 DE EN TR ECommerce content RC1.indb 3943059 DE EN TR ECommerce content RC1.indb 39 19.02.2016 14:11:5819.02.2016 14:11:5840 of 80
