Carefully unpack the MAN301 unit. The following items should be included:
- The MAN301 unit
- This quick start guide with a warranty card
- The WiFi antenna
After unpacking the MAN301, screw on the antenna onto the appropriate socket on the
back of the unit.
The antenna can be rotated to the position you like best. Usually it is not critical in terms
of signal reception.

The MAN301 will automatically accommodate for the mains voltage, so there is no
mains voltage selector to set. The fuse rating is the same for all mains voltages.
To switch on power to the MAN301 press the “on” switch on the front panel. The blue
LED will light. After about a minute or so the MAN301 has booted and is ready to
connect to the iPad and the NAS. (But wait with switching on the MAN301 right now).
The MAN301 can be switched off from within the iPad app or via the power switch on
the front panel. If switched off from the front panel, the LED turns green and starts to
flash until the MAN301 has shut down and switches off itself. If the green LED does not
stop flashing for more than 5 minutes you may force a power down by pressing and
holding the power switch (LED toggles between red and green) until the LED goes off.

There are different system architectures possible, e.g. with or without an Ethernet connection to the MAN301 or with
music stored on a USB hard disk or on a NAS (Network Attached Storage, i.e. a bunch of hard disks) etc. (Note, the
MAN301 requires an external device to store music on. It has no internal storage for music.)
First connect the MAN301 according to your requirements, e.g. connect it to the Ethernet network you may have (where
you may have a NAS connected to as well), and/or connect a USB or Firewire hard disk to the MAN301. Also connect the
audio outputs, lower the volume on your amplifier to be on the safe side for a start.
It is also possible to have the MAN301 operated “standalone”, i.e. not connected to an Ethernet network, just having
connected a USB disk and the iPad talking to the WiFi in the MAN301 directly.
