What is the LocationFree Base Station?
4
The LocationFree Base Station allows you to watch TV and videos both at home and on the go. Your
home base station can be accessed via the internet while you are away from home by installing and
configuring the LocationFree Player on your computer or another LocationFree device*. Also, by
placing the base station in a central room, such as your living room, you can enjoy TV and videos from
anywhere in your home via your home LAN.
* LocationFree device: A computer with LocationFree Player installed or a LocationFree TV.
NetAV: A function that allows you to access the base station via a home network or the Internet to watch
TV and videos.
z Tips
• You cannot use NetAV when connected to the
Internet via an analog phone line that uses a dial-up
router or cellular phone.
• You may not be able to watch some videos, DVDs,
and other media that are copyright protected with the
software.
• When the power is turned on, the base station
continuously emits a wireless signal.
• To use the NetAV function, we recommend a
broadband connection with upload and download
speeds of at least 300 kbps.
• This base station can connect to the monitor of the
LocationFreeTV. To register the LocationFreeTV
monitor on the base station, the base station LF-B1
setup information (domain name, port number, and
registration password) needs to be set on the
LocationFreeTV monitor. For details, refer to the
operating instructions for the LocationFreeTV,
“Registering LocationFree Devices on the Base
Station” (
1 page 41) in these operating
instructions, or the following site.

• NetAV cannot be used via a proxy server.
Notes
• The LocationFree Base Station transmits on the 2.4
GHz and 5 GHz wireless channels. If other devices
in the vicinity emit electrical waves, such as a
wireless LAN device or microwave oven, the
strength of the wireless signal may decrease. The
materials used in the construction of a building’s
walls and floors may also affect the signal strength.
• When using NetAV, the base station, router, and
connected devices at home also need to be left on
when you are away from home so that you can
connect to them via the Internet.
• Use of the NetAV function for purposes other than
personal enjoyment is prohibited.
