➤ Connecting to a network

En

Connect the unit to your router with a commercially-available STP network cable (CAT-5 
or higher straight cable).

You can enjoy Internet radio or music files stored on media servers, such as PCs and 
Network Attached Storage (NAS), on the unit.

• If you are using a router that supports DHCP, you do not need to configure any network settings for the unit, 

as the network parameters (such as the IP address) will be assigned automatically to it. You only need to 
configure the network settings if your router does not support DHCP or if you want to configure the network 
parameters manually (p.110).

• You can check whether the network parameters (such as IP address) are properly assigned to the unit in 

“Network” (p.118) in the “Information” menu.

• Some security software installed on your PC or the firewall settings of network devices (such as a router) 

may block the access of the unit to the network devices or the Internet. In these cases, configure the 
security software or firewall settings appropriately.

• Each server must be connected to the same subnet as the unit.

• To use the service via the Internet, broadband connection is strongly recommended.

You can connect video/audio recording devices to the AV OUT jacks. These jacks 
output video/audio signals selected as the input.

• The AV OUT jacks cannot output video/audio signals input through the HDMI or COMPONENT VIDEO 

jacks.

• Be sure to use the AV OUT jacks only for connecting recording devices.
