5. Connection
Power supply
- Plug the power cable into a correctly
installed power outlet of your home power system.
Radio Aerials
- In order to receive DAB or FM radio
broadcasts it is necessary to connect either the supplied wire aerial to the screw socket marked DAB/FM Antenna or alternatively if you have an external aerial you can connect a cable from the socket to your aerial, sometimes via a wall socket. Either of these methods will work for both DAB and FM signals.
Ethernet Network Connection
- For best results when receiving internet
radio stations or playing music files from your network, use an Ethernet cable (not supplied) to connect to a spare Ethernet port on your router.
Wireless LAN
- For wireless operation, attach the antenna
to the “Wi-Fi 2.4G Antenna“ connection. This screws in clockwise.

6. Before Getting Started
Screens
The screen shows various menus, dialogues and displays, as described below.
There are basically six types of screen:
Standby
• Splash / temporary (e.g. changing modes)
• Now playing
• Dialogue
• Error/Information
• Menu
When text is too long to fit on the screen, it is first shown truncated, then, after a few seconds, slowly scrolls so that you can read it all. The Standby screen shows the time, date and any active alarm times. As you cycle through the play modes by pressing the Mode button the WLD+211T shows a splash screen for each mode.
After one second, the WLD+211T enters the selected mode and tries to start playing the last station or track that was playing in that mode. If this is not possible, the WLD+211T tries to connect to the selected source by scanning for stations, networks, or prompting for user input as appropriate.
Now playing screens show information about the audio source and track now playing, where available.
Dialogue screens are shown to allow the user to change settings. They vary in complexity from simple Yes/No options up to the scrollable network password input screen. As with menus, the selected item is shown with a white background. Dialogue screens mark the current setting with an asterisk (*).
