your networked NAS or PCS, please make sure:
1. The network is properly set up;
2. The MA-2000 is connected to the network;
3. To designate the folders/files on your PC as shared resources. Please refer
to Microsoft’s official website:

px to see the initial and detailed process of Home Network Setup in
Windows XP.
Please refer to the following instructions to enable the MA-2000 to access the
shared folders in the networked PCs.
1. Right click on the folder to be shared and select Sharing and Security.
2. If this is the first time you intend to share a folder, Windows XP will prompt a
warning message, urging you to use the Network Setup Wizard for safety
purpose. Choose to either run the Wizard or do it yourself. XP will display
another warning. If you want the firewall enabled, select Use the wizard to
enable file sharing. Otherwise, select Just enable file sharing.
3. You may now specify a “Share Name”, which will be used for users on the
network to access the shared folder. The icon of the shared folder will be
changed to showing a hand holding the folder.
