Exstreamer User Manual Version 1.7
11 FAQ and Troubleshooting
Q: I don’t see any status lights on at all.
A: Make sure the power cable is correctly plugged into the
unit and make sure the power supply is plugged into the
wall.
Q: Red status light is flashing red.
A: Make sure the network cable is plugged into the unit.
The status light on the jack indicates if you are connected
to the network or not. Make sure the Music Server
program is running on the network. You can also ping the
device to see if it’s on your network.
Q: How do I ping the Exstreamer to see if it’s on my
network?
A: You can ping any device on your network by opening a
DOS command box.
Type ping and the IP address of the unit to see if you can
get a response.
Example: ping 192.168.2.10
The proper response would be to see the message “reply
from 192.168.2.10”.
If you see the message “request timed out”, it means that
the Exstreamer is not on your network or that you have
entered the wrong numbers for the IP address.
Q: When I type in the IP address in the browser I get a
“This Page Cannot Be Displayed” Message
A: This means that you can not connect to the Exstreamer.
There could be a couple of different reasons. Make sure
you are typing in the IP address correctly. Check the cables
to make sure the Exstreamer is properly connected to the
network.
Q: Will the Exstreamer work on my operating system?
A: The Exstreamer works on virtually any operating system
because the zServer software is a portable java application
that was designed to run regardless of which operating
system it is on. To control the Exstreamer a standard web
browser is all you need.
