(next file).
Connections to the required system and specific settings must be

Before starting, you must launch the computer’s server software
and set the files as server contents. For details, see the operating
instructions of your server software.
Depending on the size of the still picture (JPEG) file, some time may
be required for the file to be displayed.
The order in which the tracks/files are displayed depends on the
server specifications. If due to the server specifications the tracks/
files are not displayed in alphabetical order, searching by the first
letter may not work properly.
WMA Lossless files can be played when using a server supporting
transcoding, such as Windows Media Player Ver. 11.
Use the RESTORER mode to expand the low and high frequency
components of compressed audio files and achieve a richer sound
(
v
page 73). The default setting is “Mode 3”.
The time (default : 30 sec) for which the GUI menus are displayed
can be set at “GUI” – “NET/USB” (
v
page 41).
Use
<STATUS>
to switch between displaying the title name, artist
name or album name.
