Sleep
The Sleep setting allows you to set PiXiS RS
to automatically switch itself into standby
mode. See page 19 for further information.
Alarms
PiXiS RS’s alarms allow you to wake up to
any of the audio modes or a buzzer. Alarms
are fully con
fi gurable to specify dates,
recurrence, volume etc. See page 18 - 19.
Time, Date and Alarm status are
displayed along the top of the screen.
These are not touch-activated but
provide a quick, handy summary. The central area of the screen is the
main information display, showing
you menu lists and information about
whatever you’re currently listening to.
Navigational menus occupy the
bottom of the screen. These allow
you to access features and settings
and get back to the home screen.
Guiding Principles
PiXiS RS’s de fi ning feature is its
3.5 inch colour touchscreen, which
puts you in direct contact with
the radio’s many functions.
PiXiS RS’s controls are very intuitive,
so should require little explanation. The
graphical representation of features and
the ability to directly touch words and
buttons to activate them should feel
natural after just a few minutes of use.
To get you started, the following two
pages aim to offer a summary of what you
can expect to see in the different areas
of your radio’s screen and provide an
outline of how to
fi nd your way around.

Home Screen
Your fi rst point of contact with PiXiS
RS’s interface is the home screen. We
think the various modes will be fairly
self-explanatory and easy to
fi nd but
here we offer a short description of the
function of each of the homepage icons.
Gently press an icon to access
the relevant mode.
Network Audio /
Network Music Player
PiXiS RS’s network music player mode
“Network Audio” lets you stream audio
fi les
across your network from PC or Mac. This
turns PiXiS RS into a multi-room system for
your existing music collection. See page 15.
FM Radio
PiXiS RS includes the ability to receive FM
broadcasts, including RDS data. Very handy if
you take your radio outside a DAB reception
area. See page 9 for further information.
Settings
The Settings menu provides you with controls to
tailor the setup of your PiXiS RS. For example, time
settings, audio EQ, and display brightness can be
controlled from here. See page 20 for details.
DAB Radio
As well as high-sensitivity DAB reception,
PiXiS RS is future-proofed to provide coverage
of DAB+ broadcasts where available.
See page 6 for further information.
Internet Radio
Internet Radio mode allows you to access tens of
thousands of online radio stations and podcasts
from around the World. As long as you have a
wireless internet connection, you don’t even need
a computer to use this mode. Details on page 11.
