Hardware & Software Installation
Hardware Installation:
If you prefer to use Ethernet for wired network connection, please 
plug in your Ethernet cable to the LAN (RJ45) port.
Please plug in the DC power adapter to the outlet and the DC 
power jack carefully. 
To operate the device, you can use the supplied remote control.
Software Installation:
AIREC01F can work as a stand-alone device or as a media 
streamer of  a media server. As a stand-alone unit, you can use it 
to listen to Internet radio and external USB storage/MP3 players. 
No computer is needed. 
For digital music files that are stored in your computer, you need 
to install streaming server software in the computer so that 
AIREC01F can request the streaming service from that server.
AIREC01F is compliant to UPnP protocol. It works with media 
server software such as Microsoft Windows Media Player 11 
(WMP11), Microsoft Media Connect 2.0 (WMC2.0), and Music-
match Jukebox. Once you have the software installed on the 
computer, you can stream your music collection to AIREC01F.
Please find Appendix A and B in the manual for instructions on 
how to connect AIREC01F to your computer via WMP11, and 
WMC2.0.
Configure as a Wireless Client
The factory default mode is the wireless client code. According to 
the availability of an Ethernet cable, the device will automatically 
select a suitable client mode to operate. User can also manually 
change the setting of network configuration through the Setup 
menu “Setup/Advanced Setup/Configure Network”.
AIREC01F will connect wirelessly if it detects an 802.11b/g 
wireless network. With no Ethernet cable attached, you just need 
to power on the device and AIREC01F will automatically enter 
the wireless client mode. 
To connect AIREC01F to the wireless network for the first time, 
you will need to set the encryption key for a secured network. 
Once the setting is finished, the device will remember the related 
settings and try to connect to the designated AP when it is power 
on next time. However, if there is something trouble in connecting 
to the designated AP, the device will show the AP list screen for 
you to configure again
First time using device without an Ethernet cable plugged in:
First time using device without an Ethernet cable plugged in (cont.):
Configure as a Wired Client
If there is no 802.11b/g wireless network, AIREC01F can also 
connect to the wired network through an Ethernet cable. 
For this case, prior to power on the device, you have to plug in 
the Ethernet cable into the LAN (RJ45) connector on the back of 
the unit. After you power on the device, it will automatically go 
into the wired client mode when it detects a link status through 
the Ethernet connection.
First time using device with an Ethernet cable plugged in:
Listen to Internet Radio
To listen to music or broadcast programs from Internet radio stations, 
please select the “Internet Radio” function from the main menu and 
then press the OK button to enter the Internet Radio function.
The first screen of Internet Radio function shows 2 items for you to select:
“Station List”: Retrieve the Internet radio station lists from the 
Internet portal server.
“Favorite Stations”: Retrieve the favorite station lists that stored in 
the device.
Press “OK” button or “    ” button to retrieve the Station List. The device 
will try to connect to the Internet radio server to retrieve the Internet 
radio stations for further playback, you will see the following screen:
It takes few seconds to get the latest list from Internet. And you 
will see the next screen.
This means the AIREC01F is connected to the Internet server and 
received the information from the server.
If you see the following screen instead, it means that the device 
has encountered problem in retrieving the list from the internet 
server, please try again.
