Instruction manual

Set up UPnP access on a Windows PC - cont.

You will now need to connect your Internet clock radio to Windows Media

Player 11 and conﬁ gure it to allow access to your media library.

1. Press the On/Off button to switch the radio on. Then press the Band

button as needed until the Media Player' mode display is shown. Your

clock radio will enter the main Media Player menu.

2. Press the Tuning Up or Down buttons until 'UPnP Servers' is displayed

and press the Select button. The radio will scan for all available UPnP

servers. It may take a few seconds for the radio to complete its scan.

The radio will display '<Empty>' if no UPnP servers are found.

3. After scanning, select your UPnP server using the Tuning Up or Down

buttons. If you are using WMP 11 as the server, your radio will then

normally display 'Unauthorised - Select to retry' at this stage.

4. Your PC may prompt you that there has been a connection to your

UPnP server. Whether prompted or not, to allow the radio to access

the media ﬁ les, you will need to click the 'Library' tab in WMP 11 and

select the 'Media Sharing…' item to open the 'Media Sharing' window.

Make sure the box 'Share my media to:' is ticked.

5. In the 'Media Sharing' window, the radio will be listed as an unknown

device. Click on the unknown device shown to select it, then click the

'Allow' button and then click 'OK'.

Note: If you are using Microsoft Windows' ﬁ rewall software, this should

be correctly conﬁ gured by WMP 11. If you are using third party ﬁ rewall

software you may need to manually conﬁ gure it to allow your radio

and WMP 11 to communicate (see 'Troubleshooting' on page 61).

6. On the clock radio, select the named server again using the Select

button. If WMP 11 is now able to communicate with your radio you

will be presented with some media selection options on the display.
