Set up UPnP access on a Windows PC - cont.

Rotate the

Tuning Control Rotary until 'Shared media' is highlighted and press the Tuning

Control Rotary. 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.

After scanning, select your UPnP server using the

Tuning Control Rotary. If you are using

WMP  as the server, your radio will then normally display 'Unauthorized - Select to retry' at
this stage.

Your PC may prompt you that there has been a connection to your UPnP server. Whether
prompted or not, in order that the radio may access the music files, 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.

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' firewall software, this should be correctly configured by
WMP 11. If you are using third party firewall software you may need to manually configure it to
allow your unit and WMP  to communicate.

On the radio, select the named server again using the

Tuning Control Rotary. If WMP  is

now able to communicate with your radio you will be presented with some media selection
options on the display.
