Sonos Multi-Room Music System - Manual (Page 200)

Sonos Setup Using Controller
If you don’t have digital music stored on your computer, or don’t use Windows® or
Macintosh OS X® operating systems, you can put the Sonos System Setup CD away in a
safe place and use the handheld Sonos Controller to set up your Sonos Multi-Room
Music System.
If you do have digital music stored on a computer or a network-attached storage (NAS)
device, the computer directories or folders that contain your music files must be shared
so that the Sonos Multi-Room Music System can access them. Before you begin, enable
file sharing on each computer that holds the music files you want to access.The Sonos
Multi-Room Music System will recognize many standard shared folders on your
computer or network-attached storage (NAS) device. For additional information, visit

System Setup Using the Controller
Step 1: Connect a Sonos component to your router
Connect one ZonePlayer or ZoneBridge to your router using a standard Ethernet cable
(included), and then apply power.
• If you have structured (built-in) wiring that connects to a router located
elsewhere in your home, you can connect the Ethernet cable from a live wall
plate into one of the Ethernet switch connectors on the back of your Sonos
component.)
Note: If you have just purchased a new Sonos Controller, you should charge the
battery. Connect your Sonos Controller to the power adapter using the adapter
cable. You can use your Controller while it is charging.
