BEFORE YOU CAN USE THIS PRODUCT

Before you can use Audisse Shokunin, you must have the following:

● A broadband Internet connection (not required for DAB, FM, Bluetooth, AUX-IN

or Music Player functions).

● A wireless router (WiFi) connected to your broadband Internet Service Provider,

preferably via a router. In many cases the broadband modem, router and wireless
access point will be a single combined unit supplied by your Internet Service Provider
or bought from a computer store.

● If your wireless network is congured to use Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) or WiFi

Protected Access (WPA/WPA2) data encryption then you either need to know the
WEP, WPA or WPA2 key used for encryption so you can get the sound system to
communicate with the network, or your router needs to offer WiFi Protected Setup
(WPS).

● Spotify Connect requires a Spotify Premium subscription.

If connecting using WiFi, the sound system will typically work within a 10-20 metres radius
from your wireless access point. The actual range achieved will depend upon the building
type, other nearby wireless networks, and possible interference sources. DAB and FM radio
functions can operate wherever the sound system is able to receive a suitable broadcast
signal.

IMPORTANT: Before you continue, make sure that your wireless access point or router is
powered up and working with your broadband Internet service (use your computer to verify
this). To get this part of the system working you must read the instructions supplied with the
wireless access point or router.

LITHIUM BATTERY OPERATION AND CHARGING

NOTE ON FIRST USE : BEFORE OPERATING THE AUDISSE Shokunin FOR THE FIRST
TIME ALWAYS FIRST FULLY CHARGE THE LITHIUM BATTERY.

The Audisse Shokunin can be operated by the built-in Lithium battery. During operation on
battery power the approximate power level of the battery is displayed by the 4 segments
battery icon in the top right corner of the LCD display. When the battery power level is very

low, the “empty” icon will start ashing. Under this condition, the battery should be recharged

as soon as possible to continue normal operation of the Audisse Shokunin.

Charging time from empty to full battery is approximately 5-6 hours (at room temperature with
the radio in Standby mode). The Audisse Shokunin can be charged in Standby mode as well
as in On mode while playing music. While playing music the charging time will be longer than
in Standby mode. When charging is in process the battery icon segments will animate.

function/settings.

NOTE ON PLAYING TIME ON BATTERY POWER: The achieved playing time on battery
power depends on many factors such as: selected volume level, music type (bass heavy
music consumes more energy), selected music source, selected EQ setting, ambient
temperature and age of the battery. Depending on these variables a playing time of
approximately 12-16 hours on a medium set volume level can be achieved.

NOTE: When playing on battery power and the energy level of the battery is very low, the
sound may distort on higher volume and the WiFi-connection may become unstable.

NOTE ON LITHIUM BATTERY LIFE

If the Audisse Shokunin is not used for any extended period of time, always rst charge the
built-in battery until it is full. The optimum working life from the built-in battery will be obtained
if it is kept topped up by recharging after each use of the Audisse Shokunin, even if it is
only partially discharged. The battery’s working life will be reduced if the product is left in a
discharged condition for a long period of time.

CONNECTING TO YOUR COMPUTER NETWORK

Before you can use your Audisse Shokunin sound system to listen to Internet radio or to

music streamed from your computer, it must rst be connected to your computer network.

This section of this book describes how to connect the sound system to your network using
the wireless (WiFi) connection.

The following instructions assume that you have just set up the clock and time options using
the Setup Wizard.

These instructions also apply to the Network Wizard in the Network Settings menu.

1. After setting the Daylight Savings options, the display will show the ‘Keep network
connected?’ option. You should choose ‘Yes’ if you wish to keep the sound system connected
to the network when it is in Standby mode. This will allow remote control software to switch
on Audisse Shokunin when needed. If you choose ‘No’ then Audisse Shokunin will shut
down its WiFi connection when it is in Standby, DAB, FM, Bluetooth or Aux-in modes. This
minimises power consumption but it does mean that you will need to switch the sound
system on manually in order to use either the ‘Play to’ function or any remote control software
such as UNDOK app.

Rotate the Tuning/Seek/Select control to highlight the required option and then press the
control to make the selection.

3. If you plan to use a WiFi connection, you will rst need to identify your network in the

list of network names presented by the Network Wizard. If no networks are found then you
may have to get your wireless router working (please see the instructions supplied with the
wireless router) or you may be too far from the router.

When the sound system nds your wireless network, it displays the Network Name (SSID) for

the wireless access point on the screen. This is a name that is allocated to the access point
in your router by the person who set up the network - for example: ‘Wilson’ or
‘Jame’s group’. If the router supports WiFi Protected Setup, then ‘[WPS]’ will be shown in
front of the SSID.

exit the setup wizard and show the Main menu. If this is the case then you have successfully
connected Audisse Shokunin to your network.

8. If the screen displays ‘Key:’, it is because the network is using one of the encryption
systems: Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) or WiFi Protected Access (WPA). You will need to
enter the correct WEP or WPA key into the sound system to allow it to communicate with your
wireless network. If you do not have the WEP or WPA key, then you should obtain it from the
person who set up your network. Some wireless routers may come with an encryption key
already set up by the supplier, in which case you should refer to the documentation provided
with it. WPA is used here to also include WPA2.

WEP keys are 10 or 26 characters long (using 0 - 9, and A - F). Some wireless routers can
also use pass-phrases for WEP but these are not supported by the sound system. WPA keys
are usually set up using a pass-phrase of between 8 and 63 characters. Audisse Shokunin
accepts pass-phrases for WPA keys.

9. To enter the WEP or WPA key, characters are selected and entered using the Tuning/Seek/

CHANGING THE NETWORK CONNECTION

In the sections above, you chose how Audisse Shokunin would be connected to your

network, either using a WiFi connection. From time to time, you may nd that you need to

connect to different computer networks. The Internet setup menu allows you to change your

radio’s network settings, scan for an alternative wireless network, or to manually congure

22

the network parameters.
The steps outlined below describe how you can do this - see also the section ‘Network

CONFIGURING THE SOUND SYSTEM TO USE AN ALTERNATIVE WIFI CONNECTION

1. From the Network settings menu select ‘Network wizard’. This will present you with details
of any WiFi networks that are found. Scroll down the list using the Tuning/Seek/Select control
to the desired network name. Press the control to select this network.

The radio will then use its WiFi system to communicate with the network. Depending on the
settings for the new network you may need to enter an encryption key. By default the sound
system will then acquire an IP address and other network settings from your router using
DHCP.

MANUAL NETWORK CONFIGURATION

If you do not wish to use DHCP for automatic conguration, or if your network is congured

with a hidden SSID, then you will need to enter some network settings manually. (Note

- a hidden SSID may prevent casual observers from detecting your network, but it is not
recommended as a means of network security.)

1. From the sound systems Network settings menu, select ‘Manual settings’. You must
then choose whether to connect using ‘Wireless’ connections. If you choose ‘Wireless’ there
are as many as nine settings screens, shown by the ‘1 of 9’ progress marker in the top right
corner of the display.

3. The next menu asks whether you wish to use DHCP to congure your network parameters

(IP address, subnet mask, gateway address, etc.). Unless you are familiar with networking
and related terminology, we recommend that you allow the use of DHCP. Choose ‘DHCP
enable’ unless you need to specify the network details manually. Please skip to step 11. If
you chose ‘Wireless’ and ‘DHCP enable’, please skip to step 6 in order to set up the wireless
connection details. If you chose ‘DHCP disable’ for either connection method, the next step is
to set up the IP address.

DHCP disable

4. The manually specied IP address should be chosen to be compatible with the settings

in your router and must be a unique address on your network. If you are using DHCP for

some devices and static (manually congured) IP addresses for others, the IP address used
should fall outside the range that the router may allocate using DHCP. Typically, the rst three

groups of digits will be the same for all devices on your network. To enter the IP address,
rotate the Tuning/Seek/Select control to set the value for each group of digits and then press
the control to enter the value and to move on to the next group. When the IP address has

been entered, the subnet mask should be entered. The subnet mask denes which parts of

the IP address are common across your network. For most small networks the subnet mask
will be 255.255.255.0 and this is entered in the same way.

5. The Gateway address is normally the IP address of the router through which the sound
system connects to the Internet and is entered in the same way as the previous addresses.

6. In most installations the DNS settings (DNS = Domain Name Server) will be set to the
same IP address as your router. In this case the secondary DNS may be left at zero. To enter
the DNS address, rotate the Tuning/Seek/Select control to set the value for each group of
digits and then press the control to enter the value and to move on to the next group. Repeat
this until all eight groups of digits have been entered.

7. The next step is to set up the WiFi connection, starting with the name of the wireless
network (SSID) followed by the encryption options and password. To enter the SSID,
characters are selected and entered using the Tuning/Seek/Select control. As you rotate the
control, the radio scrolls through the available characters as well as the three controls on the
right. The character currently highlighted will be entered when you press the Tuning/Seek/
Select control. Do this as needed until the complete network name has been entered. The

24

SSID setting is sensitive to upper and lower case characters and symbols. You must enter it
exactly as set up in your router. The three controls on the right-hand side of the screen have
special functions. You can quickly access these by pressing the Info button and then use the
Tuning/Seek/Select control as needed:
Select ‘BKSP’ to erase a character just entered (long press to clear)

8. Having entered the SSID, you must enter details of the encryption system used on your

wireless network. This should be the same as specied in your router settings. If your

network does not use encryption, then select the ‘Open’ option. Audisse Shokunin should
then connect to the network, so skip to step 11. If your network uses WEP (Wired Equivalent
Privacy) select the ‘Pre-Shared Key’ option, then go to step 8. The remaining options are for
WPA or WPA2 (WiFi Protected Access) - see step 9.

9. If you chose ‘Pre-Shared Key’ in step 7, you should then choose the WEP option. The
key should be entered using only the numbers 0-9 and the letters A-F. The key will be 10
characters long for 64-bit encryption and 26 characters long for 128-bit encryption. The radio
will accept lower-case letters a-f as equivalent to upper-case A-F. Spaces or special symbols
are not permitted in WEP keys.

as needed:

Select ‘BKSP’ to erase a character just entered (long press to clear)
Select ‘OK’ when the complete key has been entered
Select ‘CANCEL’ to cancel and go back to the SSID settings screen

25

Once the key is entered the sound system should connect to your network. Please skip to
step 11.

10. WPA and WPA2 are similar, although WPA2 offers a higher level of security. Whichever
you selected in step 7, you then have to specify the variant used. They are TKIP (Temporal
Key Integrity Protocol) and AES (Advanced Encryption Standard). As previously, the setting

should match that used by your router. Some routers allow both to be specied, and the

router will use whichever variant is supported by the connected device. AES is regarded as
the more secure option if it is available.

11. The sound system will then require you to enter the encryption key. This must be a string
of between 8 and 63 characters and must be identical to the key that has been entered into
your router. Note - the encryption key is sensitive to the use of upper and lower case letters
and symbols. Take care to enter the key exactly, or the radio will not be able to connect to
your router. The three controls on the right-hand side of the screen have special functions.
You can quickly access these by pressing the Info button and then use the Tuning/Seek/
Select control as needed:

Select ‘BKSP’ to erase a character just entered (long press to clear)
Select ‘OK’ when the complete key has been entered
Select ‘CANCEL’ to cancel and go back to the SSID settings screen

Once the key is entered the sound system should connect to your network.
While the sound system is trying to connect to the network, it will display ‘Processing...’ when
checking the encryption key (if using the WiFi connection) and then ‘Connecting...’. If the
connection is made successfully, the sound system will return to the Network settings menu.
If the unit cannot connect, then it will display a ‘Failed to connect’ message and will return to
the SSID entry screen (step 6). Once connected, the network settings are stored in the sound
system. The settings are retained when the sound system is disconnected from the mains.
You may now use the Back and Source buttons to access the functions of Audisse Shokunin.

NETWORK REMOTE CONTROL OPTIONS

NETWORK PIN SETUP (PIN NUMBER)

Audisse Shokunin has the option of being controlled by an application installed on an Apple
iPhone, iPod touch, iPad or equivalent Android device. The PIN number facility allows you
to ensure that Audisse Shokunin can only be controlled by your own device rather than
someone else’s.

Details of how this feature can be used are explained in the separate documentation
available from the Radio Website. The remote control app is called UNDOK and is available
from the Apple App Store and Google Play Store for your device.

The default PIN is ‘1234’ and is entered in the UNDOK application on your device when it

rst connects to Audisse Shokunin. You may change the PIN if desired using the ‘NetRemote

PIN Setup’ option in the Network settings menu. The updated PIN should then be used to
reconnect the sound system to the application.

KEEP NETWORK CONNECTED

Audisse Shokunin has the option to shut down its WiFi when it is in Standby. This minimises
power consumption but it does mean that you will need to switch the sound system on
manually in order to use either the ‘Play to’ function or any remote control software such as
the UNDOK app.

If you need to be able to remotely control the sound system even when it has been put into
Standby, then you can choose to keep the network connected by using the ‘Keep network
connected’ option in the network settings menu. In the Standby mode display the WiFi signal
indicator is shown with or without a cross through it, according to the state of the connection.

27

INTERNET RADIO - THE BASICS

Before you can use Audisse Shokunin to listen to broadcasts via the Internet, it is necessary
to have connected it to your computer network using the wireless (WiFi) connection.
There are literally many thousands of radio broadcasts available via the Internet as well as
‘Podcasts’. Audisse Shokunin provides several ways of searching for broadcasts in order to

make nding and choosing them easier. Once you have found radio stations that you like,

you may either store them as presets within the sound system, or add them to a list of your
favourite stations that Audisse Shokunin can access. The number of presets is limited (there
are preset+ and preset- buttons on the radio), but you can store as many favourites as you
like.

You may search for an internet radio station by Location. If you know the name of the station

and the country from which a station is broadcast this may be the easiest method to nd a

station. It is also a great way to experience radio from other parts of the world.
You may also search for an internet radio station by Genre. If you prefer a particular type of
music, Blues for example, you may search for a radio station that broadcasts that type of
music, and you can choose from a list of Blues radio stations regardless of location, or taking
location into account.

If you know part of the name of an internet radio station, you can enter it into the sound
system and it will search for stations that match that name. This can be helpful if you are
unsure of the location or genre of a particular station.
The Audisse Shokunin sound system connects to a radio station database that serves many
users in many countries. This means that there is a very wide range of programme content
available. You can also search for stations that have been recently added to those available
(new stations) or you can search for the most popular.

Podcasts and Listen Again content can also be accessed separately from the main Internet
Radio menu.

IF YOUR RADIO CANNOT CONNECT TO A RADIO STATION

Note: If Audisse Shokunin is unable to connect to an internet radio station it will generally
either display ‘Network Error’ or ‘Stopped’. This can be for many reasons, but typically will be
due to one of the following:

The radio station may not be broadcasting at the present time.

The radio station may not be able to accommodate any more connections from internet
listeners.

The broadcaster may limit listening to specic countries or regions

There may be network congestion (either locally or at a distance) that is affecting the
reliability of the connection.

If Audisse Shokunin can connect, but the audio is not continuous and the radio keeps having
to reconnect, this may be due to the radio station only having limited connection capacity.

presets that can easily be set to store the details of any Internet radio station. The radio
station presets are retained in memory even when the sound system is switched off.

The Audisse Shokunin has the unique function of Preset + and Preset –
This enables you to quickly zap through your whole preset list.

When performing a Factory Reset the whole Preset memory of the radio will be emptied.
This in contrast to the stored Internet radio “Favourite stations” as that information is stored

CUSTOMISING YOUR RADIO

SOURCE

TUNING

SEEK/SELECT

In addition to storing your favourite radio stations in the radio presets, Audisse Shokunin
allows you to create customised lists of favourite stations which can appear in two special
menus on the radio called ‘My Favourites’ and ‘My Added Stations’.

Audisse Shokunin uses a database that is accessed via the Internet in order to nd out which

radio stations are available and how it should connect to them. You are able to add your
personal selections to this database. These will only be accessible by you using your PC
or Audisse Shokunin. You can choose the stations which will appear in the ‘My Favourites’

menu from the large selection already listed. Additionally, if you nd a radio station that is not

listed then you may also add the Internet address (URL) of the station’s audio stream to your
selection. It will then appear on Audisse Shokunin via the ‘My Added Stations’ menu item.

REGISTERING AN ACCOUNT

1. Open the web site http://www.WiFiradio-frontier.com using the Internet browser on your
computer. Click on the ‘Register here’ link and follow the on-screen instructions to register an
account. During the registration process the web site asks for an access code. This allows it
to uniquely identify your internet radio from the many others that it also provides data for. To
obtain the access code, please follow these steps.

2. With Audisse Shokunin switched on and in Internet radio mode, press the Menu button,
then select ‘Station list’ using the Tuning/Seek/Select control.

5. You should then use the code displayed by the sound system to ll in the Access Code
eld on the web page when you set up your account.

Once you have your account set up, if you have other radios that use the same database,
you may also add them to your account. You will need to get an access code from each radio
in order to add it to the account. They may then share your favourite and added radio station
details.

CONFIGURING MY FAVOURITE STATIONS

1. Using the web site at http://www.WiFiradio-frontier.com it is possible to search among the
many radio stations that are available by location, genre, or language. You may also choose
from new or popular stations.

2. When the radio stations that you have found are shown on your computer screen, they are
shown with a ‘Play’ icon and an ‘Add to favourites’ icon (the plus symbol and heart). Clicking
on the ‘Play’ icon will allow you to hear the radio station via your computer. Clicking on the
‘Add to favourites’ icon will cause the radio station to be added to the list accessible via your
radio.

3. To help you organise your favourites, and since you may have a great many after a while,
the web site will allow you to specify the name for a category or group under which the radio
station will be listed on Audisse Shokunin. Suitable names might be ‘Rock’, ‘Smooth’, ‘Mum’s
stations’, and so on. When ever you add another radio station to your favourites you can
either add it to an existing category or create a new one.

4. Once you have Internet radio stations available in your My Favourite Stations list, you
may play these stations from Audisse Shokunin. These stations will be available on Audisse
Shokunin from the Internet radio menu item ‘My Favourites’.

5. To look at, modify or delete your favourite stations lists on the web site, use the link ‘My
favourites’ in the ‘My account’ area. To delete a favourite radio station, click on the icon with a
heart and minus symbol.

CONFIGURING MY ADDED STATIONS

1. If you wish to listen to a radio station that is not currently held in the database at http://
www.WiFiradio-frontier.com it is possible to add the details yourself. You will need to obtain
the internet address (URL) for the audio stream for the station that you wish to add. This may
be information provided by the radio station itself, via its web site, or perhaps passed to you
from another listener.

44

Note: The URL for the audio stream will generally not be the URL for the web page from

which you listen to the station on your PC.

2. Use the ‘My added stations’ link in the ‘My account’ area on the web site. This allows you
to add details of new stations or to modify those already added. You can provide a name for
the radio station that will be shown on your radio. You must also provide the web address,
location and format details.

3. Once you have Internet radio stations available in your My Added Stations list, you may
play these stations from Audisse Shokunin. These stations will be available on Audisse
Shokunin from the Internet radio menu item ‘My Added Stations’.

4. It is possible to add the web addresses for audio streams that may not be playable by
Audisse Shokunin. If you attempt to play such a stream, Audisse Shokunin will normally
display an error message of some kind. The Audisse Shokunin can only play MP3, WMA,
FLAC, AAC and Real Audio streams.

5. To look at, modify or delete your added stations list on the web site, use the link ‘My added
stations’ in the ‘My account’ area. To delete an added radio station, click on the icon with a

STREAMING DATA RATE

Your radio is able to stream content from Spotify at different data rates. If your internet
connection has a low data usage allowance, or has a relatively low maximum data rate, you
may wish to specify that your radio uses a lower data rate for Spotify connections. In some
cases this may allow more reliable streaming, although at the expense of some loss of audio
quality.

The data rate used for Spotify Connect is congured via using a web browser. This is the

same page this is used to change the Friendly Name of your radio.

1. Access the radio’s conguration web page.

2. The Spotify options at the top of the web page allow you to specify the data rate used ­either 96k, 160k or 320k bits per second. Select the rate according to your needs.
For example, listening at a rate of 320kbps for 1 hour each day for a month equates to
approximately 4.5 gigabytes of data usage. If you have a low data allowance you may wish to
choose one of the lower data rates.

3. The new data rate will be used by Spotify Connect to stream music to your radio when the
radio plays from a new playlist.

52

FRIENDLY NAME

Your radio is identied within the Spotify app using its Friendly Name. By default, your radio’s

name will be shown as “Audisse Shokunin” followed by a 12 digit alphanumeric code that is
the network MAC address that is unique to your radio.

If you would like to change this name to something more personalised.

MUSIC PLAYER USE WITH WINDOWS, APPLE MAC, LINUX

USE WITH WINDOWS, APPLE MAC, LINUX, USB MEMORY

The Music Player allows you to play audio les that are stored on a computer on your

network or on a USB memory device plugged into the radio.

In order to play les from a computer on your network, Audisse Shokunin must connect
to a le server application that uses the Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) protocol. If your

computer uses Windows XP or Vista, then it is likely that your computer already has a UPnP
server application available. Windows Media Player version 11 has this capability, and it is

able to make your MP3 and WMA les available to Audisse Shokunin. It also allows you to
select les by Album, Artist, and so on.

Windows Media Player is only able to serve MP3 and WMA les to Audisse Shokunin. If you
have your audio les in either AAC or FLAC formats, or if you are an Apple Mac or Linux

user, there are other UPnP server applications that you may use with Audisse Shokunin.

The Music Player on the sound system can playback audio les in MP3, FLAC, AAC and
WMA formats. WMA Lossless les can also be played when using Windows Media Player

11 as it will convert these to a PCM format before streaming them to the sound system. Note

that the playback of les encoded using WMA Voice, WMA 10 Professional, and les that

have DRM protection is not supported.

When using a UPnP server, the search and selection criteria are determined by the server
software, but typically include Artist, Album and Genre. Many server applications also allow

you to access your les according to the folders within which they are stored as well as other
criteria. Windows Media Player 11 is less exible than some other UPnP servers, but is

generally easy to set up. It is supplied as a standard component of Windows XP and Vista.

Many UPnP server applications are also capable of sharing pictures and video les to other

network connected devices. If this is the case (as it is with Windows Media Player 11) you
may see the option of choosing between ‘Music’, ‘Video’ and ‘Pictures’ on the Music Player’s
menu. Clearly you should only select the ‘Music’ option. Content offered via the alternative
options will not be playable on Audisse Shokunin.

Some third party server applications allow customisation of the search criteria and indexing

methods. This can be useful if you have a very large collection of stored music les.

53

Here is a short selection of alternative UPnP server applications, although many others are
available:

• Twonky Media Server (Windows, Apple Mac, Linux)

• TVersity (Windows) *

• Elgato EyeConnect (for Apple Mac OS X) *

• MediaTomb (Linux) *

* = free of charge versions available

Please refer to the documentation for your chosen server application for full details of its

conguration and usage.

ACCESSING YOUR AUDIO FILES VIA A UPNP SERVER

If your computer is running Windows (XP or Vista), then Windows Media Player version 11

includes a UPnP server which will make your les available to Audisse Shokunin. There are

other UPnP server solutions available for non-Windows users and for Windows users who
may wish to use an alternative (see the preceding page).

It is beyond the scope of this instruction book to cover all possible options for UPnP. We

explain the use of Microsoft’s Windows Media Player here since that will be the rst choice

for the majority of users.

SET UP UPNP ACCESS ON A WINDOWS PC

1. If your PC is running Microsoft Windows XP or Windows Vista then you can use
Microsoft’s Windows Media Player version 11 to act as your UPnP (Universal Plug and
Play) media server. If not already installed on your PC, Windows Media Player 11 may be
downloaded from Microsoft’s web site and installed by following the instructions detailed in its
installation wizard, or by using Microsoft’s Windows Update facility.

2. Once installed, Windows Media Player 11 can create a library from all the media les
available to it on your PC. To add new media les to the library, select the ‘Library’ tab, then
‘Add to Library... > Advanced Options’, click ‘Add’, choose the les you wish to add and click

‘OK’.

The next step is to connect Audisse Shokunin to Windows Media Player 11 and to congure

the program to allow the sound system to access your media library.

3. Press the Power button to switch the unit on. Then press the Source button as needed
until the Music Player mode display is shown. The main ‘Music Player’ menu will then be
displayed.

4. Rotate the Tuning/Seek/Select control until ‘Shared media’ is highlighted and press the

servers are found.

using WMP 11 as the server, Audisse Shokunin will then normally display ‘Unauthorised ­Select to retry’ at this stage.

Shared media
Twonky Server >
myMusic Station >

6. Your PC may prompt you that there has been a connection to your UPnP server. Whether

prompted or not, in order that the sound system may access the music les, you will need

to click the ‘Library’ tab in WMP 11 and select the ‘Media Sharing...’ item to open the ‘Media
Sharing’ window. Make sure the box ‘Share my media to:’ is ticked.

7. In the ‘Media Sharing’ window, the sound system will be listed as an unknown device.
Click on the unknown device shown to select it, then click the ‘Allow’ button and then click

‘OK’. Note: If you are using Microsoft Windows’ rewall software, this should be correctly
congured by WMP 11. If you are using third party rewall software you may need to
manually congure it to allow your unit and WMP 11 to communicate.

8. On the sound system, select the named server again using the Tuning/Seek/Select control.
If WMP 11 is now able to communicate with Audisse Shokunin you will be presented with
some media selection options on the display.

When you rst set up sharing with a UPnP server, not all of your les will be available
immediately. The UPnP server must look inside each le to identify the artist and album

information from ‘tags’ embedded in them. The server may also need time to access the
Internet to obtain additional information such as ‘album art’ that it can display when you

examine your music library on your PC. For a library of many les this can take some time.

LISTENING TO A COMPLETE ALBUM

When searching via UPnP you will have a selection of search criteria as determined by the
UPnP server software on your computer. This allows you to search by a given information
type (Album, Artist, Genre, etc.) and then to narrow the search to an album or to a particular
track within an album.

Some UPnP server applications allow the search options to be customised. The searches
described here are just examples of the possibilities.

1. Use the Tuning/Seek/Select control to choose content by Artist, Album, Genre, etc.
according to your needs then press the control to enter your choice.

Prune servers

Your radio stores details of UPnP servers that it has seen via its network connection in

its internal memory. If you use the radio at different locations, you may nd that there are

servers listed by the radio that you are no longer interested in. This prune servers functions
allows the list to be updated so that only active UPnP servers on the currently connected
network are shown when selecting ‘Shared Media’ from the Music Player menu.

USING USB MEMORY DEVICES

This section describes how to use your radio to access and playback your audio les via USB

memory devices.

USB memory devices plug into the rectangular slot on the top of your radio on the left hand
side.

Important: Your radio is only designed to work with USB ash memory devices. It is not

intended to be connected to hard disk drives or any other type of USB device.

The Shokunin radio has been tested with a range of USB memory devices of up to 128GB

capacity. USB memory must use the FAT or FAT 32 ling system in order to operate with your

radio. Your radio is unable to play from media formatted using the exFAT or NTFS formats.

It is possible to use SD or SDHC cards for media storage and playback when held in a
suitable USB adaptor. However, due to the wide variation of such adaptors, it is not possible
to guarantee that all adaptor / card combinations will work in the radio.

Audio formats supported are MP3, WMA, AAC, FLAC and WAV. USB playback does not

support les encoded using WMA Lossless, WMA Voice, WMA 10 Professional, nor les of

any format, which have DRM protection.

Recommendations:

Unless you have only a few les on the USB memory device, do not place all les in the root

folder.

The number of items (les / sub-folders) in any folder should be less than 2000.

Searching and playback will be more responsive if the number of les in any one folder is

limited (we suggest not more than 250).

It is recommended that the USB memory is reformatted in your computer before adding your

music les.

66

The maximum depth of folder nesting permitted is 8 folder levels (but playback is only from

SEEK/SELECT

the currently selected level).

Shufe and Playlist functions are limited to 500 tracks.

Cautions:

Remove the USB memory before carrying the unit or if not using the USB feature for a
prolonged period.

Place the unit in Standby mode before removing your USB memory device.

WARNING: Never use the USB socket in rainy or moist conditions to prevent moist from
entering the radio. Keep the rubber cover well closed under these conditions.

PLAYING FILES FROM USB MEMORY DEVICES

1. Carefully insert the USB memory device into the USB slot. Press and release the Power
button to switch on the radio. The radio may detect that the memory has been connected,
in which case it will ask whether you wish to open the folder view of the memory contents.
Press the Tuning/Select control to select ‘Yes’ and skip to step 4 below. If the USB memory
was not automatically detected, proceed as follows.

Open folder ?

YES * NO

2. To select USB playback mode press the Mode button as needed until the Music Player
mode is selected.

3. Rotate the Tuning/Seek/Select control until ‘USB playback’ is highlighted on the display
and press the control. The radio will now list the content stored on the USB memory device. If

there are many les or folders this may take a few seconds.

Files are sorted by le name in numeric-alpha order (0-9...A-Z) before being played. Albums
will play in the current order if the le name begins with the track number (use leading zeroes
if more than 9 tracks). Controlling playback from the USB memory device including Shufe

BLUETOOTH

The Bluetooth mode on your sound system allows you to play audio, play sound from

video les and stream music from Bluetooth capable devices such as your mobile phone,

computer, tablet etc. through your Audisse Shokunin’s loudspeakers.

● When a Bluetooth enabled device such as your Audisse Shokunin sound system is in a

‘ discoverable’ state other Bluetooth devices can detect, pair with or connect to it.

● ‘Bluetooth pairing’ occurs when two Bluetooth enabled devices agree to establish a

connection and communicate with each other.

● The blue Bluetooth connected LED on the front panel will blink fast with short intervals

when it is discoverable or when it is trying to connect to a previously paired Bluetooth
device. When a device is paired with and connects to the radio, the blue Bluetooth
connected LED will blink slow with long intervals.

Bluetooth connectivity performance may vary depending on the connected Bluetooth devices.
Please refer to the Bluetooth capabilities of your device before connecting to your sound
system. All features may not be supported on some paired Bluetooth devices.

A Bluetooth connection can provide a link for audio up to a distance of approximately ten
metres. When pairing two Bluetooth enabled devices, for convenience, we recommend they
should be no more than 2 to 3 metres apart. The presence of other functioning Bluetooth

devices during connection may lead to operational difculties.

Bluetooth is a short-range radio communication system and generally Bluetooth devices can

communicate with each other clearly within a regular sized room or ofce. The reliability of a

Bluetooth connection between different rooms will greatly depend upon the construction of
the building.

Bluetooth communication range may be substantially reduced if the signal passes through
a solid object. Human bodies, brick and concrete walls, heavy furniture or bookcases will all
reduce the operational range of your Bluetooth devices to a greater or lesser extent. Glass,

dry-wall or wood panelled walls and ofce partitions may have a less severe but noticeable

effect. Metal pipes, foil-lined plasterboard, metal window frames and domestic wiring can
also have an effect. You should position your Bluetooth devices closer to each other if you

observe communication difculties.

WiFi networks and cordless phones generally use similar radio frequencies to Bluetooth and
may interfere with one another. If any interference is noticed, then try relocating the sound
system or one of the other devices.

The Bluetooth capabilities of your sound system enable it to receive audio from many
Bluetooth capable devices including mobile phones, personal computers and tablets. Only
one Bluetooth device can be connected to your sound system at a time. It supports the

following Bluetooth proles and functionality.

● Your Audisse Shokunin supports A2DP (Advanced Audio Distribution Prole) which is a

stereo audio connection that streams stereo music from PCs, mobile phones etc. SBC

91

and AAC audio codecs are supported.

TUNING

SOURCE

TUNING

SEEK/SELECT

● Your sound system supports AVRCP (Audio Video Remote Control Prole) that allows

your radio to control music playback from the connected device.

Note: Some mobile phones may temporarily disconnect from your sound system when you
make or receive calls. Some devices may temporarily mute their Bluetooth audio streaming
when they receive text messages, emails or for other reasons unrelated to audio streaming.
Such behaviour is a function of the connected device and does not indicate a fault with your
sound system.

CONNECTING BLUETOOTH DEVICES

The sound system allows to be connected to one Bluetooth device via Bluetooth connection.

1. Ensure that the Bluetooth capability on your phone, tablet or PC is enabled. You may
need to refer to the user documentation for your device, since the method will vary with each
device.

Hello

iPhone van Elise

Some Bluetooth devices may require a ‘Passkey’ (an authentication key) in order to establish
a link between devices. A passkey is similar to a password, although you only need to use
the passkey once to establish a link. If your device asks for a passkey to be able to pair with
your radio then enter a code of 0000 (four zeroes).

PLAYING AUDIO FILES

When you have successfully connected your sound system with your chosen Bluetooth
device you can start to play your music using the controls on the device.

1. Once playing has started adjust the volume to the required setting using the Volume
buttons on your sound system or the connected Bluetooth device.

2. Provided that your phone, tablet or PC allows volume control when using Bluetooth we
recommend that for normal Bluetooth listening the sound system’s volume control is set to a
high level. This will permit the audio volume to be controlled using the connected Bluetooth
device. This will generally be the more convenient method of controlling the volume.
