Customising your radio

In addition to storing your favourite radio stations in the radio presets,

your radio allows you to create customised lists of stations which can

appear in two special menus on the radio called 'My Favourites' and 'My

Added Stations'.

Your radio uses a database which is accessed via the Internet in order

to find out which radio stations are available and how it should connect

to them. You are able to add your personal selections to this database.

These will only be accessible by you using your PC or your radio. You can

choose the stations which will appear in the 'My Favourites' menu from

the large selection already listed. Additionally, if you find a radio station

that is not listed then you may also add the Internet address (URL) of the

station's audio stream to your selection. It will then appear on your radio

via the 'My Added Stations' menu item.

Registering an account

1. Open the web site http://www.wifiradio-frontier.com using the

Internet browser on your computer. Click on the ‘Register here’ link

and follow the on-screen instructions to register an account. During

the registration process the web site asks for an access code. This

allows it to uniquely identify your internet radio from the many others

that it also provides data for. To obtain the access code, please follow

these steps.

2. With your radio switched on and in Internet radio mode, press the Menu

button, then select 'Station list' using the Tuning/Select control.

3. Scroll down the Station list menu to the item called 'Help'. Press the

Tuning/Select control to enter the Help menu.

4. In the Help menu, select the menu item 'Get access code'. Provided

that the radio is connected to the Internet, a code will be displayed of

typically seven characters (upper case letters and numbers). Make a

note of this code for the next step. If you need to re-register later you

must repeat this process to get a fresh access code.

5. You should then use the code displayed by the radio to fill in the Access

Code field on the web page when you set up your account.


Once you have your account set up, if you have other radios which use the

same database, you may also add them to your account. You will need to

get an access code from each radio in order to add it to the account. They

may then share your favourite and added radio station details.
