Re:source M37 audio server
usinG your auDio
serVer witH a
Home computer
Your Audio Server has a number
of advanced features which can be
accessed via a computer connected to
your home network.
tHe remote user
interface
Your Audio Server’s television user
interface is accessible via a PC running
on your home network. This gives
you complete control of your Audio
Server using a keyboard and mouse
as opposed to a remote control. This
can help make editing items in the
Audio Library
easier and quicker and
also allows you to control your Audio
Server from any computer running on
your home network.
accessing the remote user
interface
Connect your Audio Server to
your home network and power
it on. If no DHCP address is
available, your Audio Server will
automatically assign itself an IP
address and become accessible
on the network.
Navigate to the
Current Ethernet
Settings
screen in the front
panel
Set Up
menu on the
Audio Server and note the IP
address. If you are using DHCP
this address will be in the same
range as the other computers on
your network; if not, this address
will be in the range 169.254.0.1
- 169.254.255.254.

Next, using a computer on the
network, type the IP address or
host name of your Audio Server
into the address bar of a web
browser (e.g. http://192.168.0.1
or http://<hostname>). If you are
not using DHCP you may need
to reconfigure your computer’s
network settings before you can
access the Remote User Interface.
If you experience any difficulties with
the above configuration, contact your
network administrator.
Supported Software
Currently, the operating systems
and web browsers supported are as
follows:
On the Apple Macintosh:
Mac OS X 10.4.2
Safari 2.0.1
On the PC:
Microsoft Windows XP (Service
Pack 2)
Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0.2
Note:
Other operating systems and
web browsers, or earlier versions
of the above, may not display the
Remote User Interface correctly.
navigating the remote user
interface
You will notice that the Remote User
Interface is identical to the television
user interface, but for the addition
of some buttons. These buttons have
been added to allow you to perform
actions normally executed with the
Audio Server remote control, using a
standard computer mouse.
When you first connect to the Remote
User Interface, you will recognize the
Main Menu
screen.
