IV. Connecting SoundBridge to AC Power
Plug the small power cord into the SoundBridge unit, and plug the other end into to a wall
outlet. Note that the back of the end cap has a hole for routing your audio and power cables
toward the back of the unit. Close your end cap by snapping it securely into place.
Hint: There is no power switch to turn on the SoundBridge. As soon as you plug in the
power, you should quickly see the welcome message “Roku SoundBridge.” If not, please
stop and ensure that your power cable is connected properly on both ends. You will need to
see a working display before moving on to the operation of your SoundBridge.
Warning: Do not operate your SoundBridge with the end caps removed. Be sure to
disconnect SoundBridge from AC power (by unplugging the power supply from the wall)
before connecting or disconnecting any cables or the CompactFlash Wi-Fi card. Always be
sure to replace the end caps on the unit before plugging in the AC power supply into the
wall, in order to avoid abnormal unit operation due to static discharge.
V. Using Your Remote Control
First, insert two AAA batteries (included) into your
remote control.
Then, point it in the direction of your SoundBridge
unit (make sure the IR receiver window is not blocked
by a nearby object).
VI. Establishing a Network Connection
Wired Ethernet Network: After you have connected SoundBridge to your computer via a
switch/hub/router (or directly to your computer via crossover cable) and powered up the unit,
SoundBridge will auto-configure its network settings (using DHCP or AutoIP). There is nothing
you need to do. If for some reason you have trouble connecting to your network, select the
“SYSTEM CONFIGURATION” option, then select “SHOW WIRED ETHERNET STATUS.”
Wireless Network: If you have a Wi-Fi network in your home, with no security keys set, then
SoundBridge will also auto-connect to your wireless network. If SoundBridge detects more
than one Wi-Fi network (as some advanced users have in their home, or if your neighbor’s
signal is leaking over), then you will be asked to select the SSID (network ID) to connect to.
If you have a security key, you will need to enter your WEP key manually into SoundBridge. This
is the same key you have entered into your Access Point and your computer. Your screen will
look something like this:
