Specifications

1. Before Started

1.1 Network Requirement

Before using the CR-2003, the following requirements are needed:

A broadband connection in combination with a wired/wireless access point, router or similar network device.

The network device needs to support WiFi (802.11b/g/n) wireless connection.

A PC or smart phone with a network ready. This network has to be the same one as the CR-2003 equipped with.

1.2 Safety Precautions

Do not drop the CR-2003 and do not expose it to liquid, moisture or humidity. These might lead to damage to the device.

If the CR-2003 is moved from a cold environment into a warmer one, do let it adapt to the new temperature before operate the device. Otherwise, it might lead to condensation and cause malfunctions in the device.

Do not use the CR-2003 in the dust environment as dust can damage the interior electronic components and lead to malfunctions in the device.

Protect the CR-2003 from strong vibrations and place it on stable surfaces.

Do not attempt to disassembly the CR-2003. Only use the power adaptor delivered with the CR-2003. The socket outlet should be installed near the CR-2003

and should be easily accessible. Never touch the power adaptor with wet hands and never

pull on the power cable when pulling the plug out of the power socket.

Make sure the electrical voltage specified on the CR-

2003 and its power plug is corresponding to the voltage of the power socket. Incorrect voltage will destroy the device.

If the CR-2003 is not using for a long period of time, disconnect it from the power supply by unplugging the power plug. This is to avoid the risk of fire.

It is not recommended to listening the CR-2003 with headphone via LINE OUT, because power output is too high and sound will be distorted.

Always power off the CR-2003 when cleaning it. Never use any harsh or strong solvents to clean the CR-

2003 since these may damage the surface of the device. Dry, soft cloth is appropriate, however, if the CR-2003 is extremely dirty, it may be wiped off with a slightly moist cloth. Make sure the device is dried off after cleaning.

When you are necessary to ship the CR-2003, store it in its original package. Save the package for this purpose.

Get the network ready

For wireless LAN (WLAN) network connection: Check if WLAN LINK/ACT light of the wired/wireless access point or router is illuminated. Consult the user guide of that for any questions.

Note: WiFi allows data transfer over short distances within 20 meters without the need of cabling between the devices. Any walls or ceilings may reduce the strength of the WiFi connectivity. Therefore try to locate the CR-2003 and/or the access point within the distance mentioned above, and avoid any obstacles between two devices.

Connect the power adaptor to the back of the CR-2003 and plug into power socket.

When it is the first time running the device, the system will ask you to set Language and Network Configurations.

Select Yes to establish connection to the network Select Yes(WPS) (only for WPS routers). Then press the WPS butto on your router. Select No if you would prefer to listen to a terrestrial station or to use the speaker with an external playback device.

If you answer “Yes”, the display goes to scanning for Wireless Network and shortly afterwards a list of available wireless networks will appear.

The number of bars in the wireless symbol in front of the network name (SSID) shows the relative signal strength of the network. The key symbol indicates that the network is password-protected.

If the device does not find any wireless networks, No wireless Networks Found appears on the display. Change your location, if necessary, and check your WLAN router. You can find the SSID of your Access Point in the configuration of the Access Point (router). Select your network and confirm with OK. If your WLAN is password-protected, you will be prompted to enter your password. Enter the password using the number and letter buttons of the remote control or enter it directly on the device. Note the use of upper and lower case when entering the password.

You can rotate reel to choose the code. If it is accidentally pressed to move a redundant entry, press to correct.
