Before you can use this product

Before you can use your Internet radio, you must have the following:

● A broadband Internet connection.

● A wireless access point (WiFi) or a wired Ethernet connection 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 conﬁgured to use Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) or WiFi Protected Access (WPA/WPA2) data encryption then you need to know the WEP or WPA key so you can get the Internet radio to communicate with the network.

The Internet radio will typically work within a 10-20 metre 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 radio 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.

About this instruction manual

This instruction manual is split into sections for each of the different operating modes of your Roberts WM-202 radio. There are four main sections - Internet Radio, Media Player (streaming ﬁles from a stored library), DAB radio and FM radio. Each section is clearly identiﬁed by the shaded heading in the top right hand corner of each pair of pages.

In order to be able to use the Internet Radio and Media Player functions, you will need to connect your radio to your computer network using either the WiFi or the Ethernet connection. This is covered in the section titled

Conﬁguration.

Introduction .

(page 9)

(page 15)

The Internet Radio section of this manual describes how to ﬁnd radio stations to listen to. These can either be radio stations that you already know and listen to conventionally, or new stations you may search for. Additionally, you may set up stations that you like as Favourites so that they are more readily accessible.

The section for the Media Player function describes the two methods by which the radio can access music ﬁles that you may have stored on a computer connected to your network. The use of Shared Folders, or Shared Media (using UPnP) is explained.

The two sections for DAB Radio and FM Radio describe how to use the radio to listen to conventional radio broadcasts.

The section titled Clock and Alarms describes the different ways by which clock in the radio may be set, as well as explaining the use of the alarms, snooze and sleep timer features.

An Information section shows how to connect your radio to other equipment, and includes troubleshooting, speciﬁcations and warranty information.

Battery operation

1. Remove the battery cover on the rear of the unit by pushing the battery door in slightly and then downwards in the direction of the arrows in the diagram.

2. Insert six LR20 (D size) alkaline batteries into the spaces in the compartment. Take care to ensure all batteries are inserted with the correct polarity as shown inside the battery compartment. Replace the battery cover.

3. Short running time, reduced power, dim display, distortion and a ‘stuttering’ sound are all signs that the batteries may need replacing.

4. If the radio is not to be used for any extended period of time it is recommended that the batteries are removed from the radio.

• We would recommend for economy that the WM-202 is powered via

the AC adaptor whenever possible with battery operation for occasional or stand-by use only.

IMPORTANT: The batteries should not be exposed to excessive heat

such as sunshine, ﬁre or the like. After use, disposable batteries should if possible be taken to a suitable recycling centre. On no account should batteries be disposed of by incineration.

Navigation controls

This page describes the basic means of controlling your WM-202 radio. Detailed instructions for each of the operational modes are given in the following sections.

1. Pressing the Mode button gives you access to the operating modes in sequence - Internet Radio, Music Player, DAB radio and FM radio.

2. Pressing the Menu button will access the menu system for each operating mode.

3. Many operations require the user to make a selection from the menu. This is done using the Tuning/Select control. Turn the control clockwise or anti-clockwise to select the desired menu item. This is indicated by a pointer arrow on the left hand side of the display.

If there are more than four items in a menu, then the display will automatically scroll up or down so that the additional items become visible.

If there are many items in a menu, then the radio allows the menu to "wrap around" in either direction. This can make it easier to reach items at the end of a very long menu, such as a list of Internet radio stations, by scrolling up from the start of a list to the bottom.

4. When the indicator arrow is pointing to the desired menu item, give a short press on the Tuning/Select control to select that item. A press on the Forward button may also be used to make selections from the displayed menu. In this instruction booklet, press always means press and release.

1. Place your radio on a ﬂat surface and plug the mains adaptor into the DC input socket located on the rear of your radio (marked 'DC in') ensuring that the plug is pushed fully into the socket.

2. If you wish to use a wired network connection, plug the Ethernet cable into the RJ-45 socket at the back of the radio.

3. Plug the other end of the mains adaptor into a wall socket and switch on the wall socket.

IMPORTANT: The mains adaptor is used as the means of connecting

the radio to the mains supply. The mains socket used for the radio must remain accessible during normal use. In order to disconnect the radio from the mains completely, the mains adaptor should be removed from the mains socket outlet completely.

4. When you apply power, the display on the radio will light up and say: 'Roberts WM202'. If this is the ﬁrst time that you are using your radio (or if you have just performed a Factory Reset) then after a few seconds the display will show a default time and date of 00:00 and 00/00/0000.

5. Press the On/Off button to take your radio out of standby. You should see the main mode menu. Use the rotary Tuning/Select control to point to "Internet Radio" and then select this function by pressing the control.

If no network connection is yet conﬁgured, the radio will enter its

'Network Wizard' and will display 'Scanning...'. After a short while the display will show a list of the available WiFi networks.

If you are intending to use a wired Ethernet connection to your router

with automatic conﬁguration, then rotate the Tuning/Select control to point to the '[Wired]' menu item. Press the control and the radio will attempt to connect.

a network address, and will then enter the main Internet Radio menu (paragraph 14 overleaf).

There are two indicator lights incorporated into the RJ-45 connector.

If you have problems with your wired connection, they may help you to identify the possible cause of the problem.

Green ON = Link established; OFF = no connection

Yellow Flashing = Data transfer

If you need to specify the network settings (if your network does not

support automatic conﬁguration or if you do not want to use it) then you should select [Manual Conﬁg] instead of selecting "[Wired]" in the Network Wizard.

6. If you wish to use a WiFi connection, you will ﬁrst need to identify your network in the list of network names presented by the Network Wizard. If the radio cannot ﬁnd any networks then you will have to get your wireless access point working - please see the instructions supplied with it.

When the radio ﬁnds your wireless network, it displays the Network

Name (ESSID) for the access point on the screen. This is a name that is allocated to the access point by the person who set up the network

- for example: 'Jones family' or 'Paul's network'.

It is possible, and in some locations highly likely, that your radio will

ﬁnd more than one wireless access point, in which case you should choose which one you need to connect to.

8. If your network is not found, it is possible that it is conﬁgured such that the ESSID is not broadcast (sometimes referred to as hidden). If this is the case then the name will not be visible in the list (there may be a blank entry). You will then need to use the Tuning/Select control to point to the '[Manual Conﬁg]' option, and then you should press the control to enter manual conﬁguration. This procedure is described in the 'Network Conﬁguration Menu', see page 14, 'Entering the network name manually'.

If you know that your network name is not hidden, and it was not found,

then either try re-scanning, or refer to 'Entering the WiFi network name manually' on page 14.

If you make a mistake at any point, use the Back option to go back to

the previous screen.)

9. When the ESSID for the access point you want to connect to is highlighted on the screen, press the Select control.

10. If your network is conﬁgured without an encryption code, the screen should say 'Connecting...', and then show the main Internet Radio menu.

If this is the case then you have successfully connected your radio to

your network, so please proceed to paragraph 14 on the next page.

11. 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 therefore need to enter the correct WEP or WPA key into the radio to allow it to communicate with your 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 WiFi routers may come with a key already set up by the supplier, in which case you should refer to the user documentation provided with it.

WiFi access points can also use pass-phrases for WEP but these do not conform to a deﬁned standard and are not supported. WPA keys are usually set up using a pass-phrase of between 8 and 63 characters. Your Internet radio can accept pass-phrases for WPA keys.

12. To enter the WEP or WPA key, characters are selected and entered using the Tuning/Select control. As you rotate the control, the radio shows different sets of characters. The character currently ﬂashing will be selected when you press the Tuning/Select control. Do this as needed until the complete key has been entered.

Remember, WEP keys only use the numbers 0-9 and letters A-F. WPA

keys are sensitive to upper and lower case characters so you must enter them exactly.

If a WEP or WPA key has previously been entered the display will

show 'Key: [Set]'. If you have previously entered a different key, you must clear this by selecting the < symbol. This will remove the '[Set]' indication

If you have followed the steps on the preceding pages successfully, your radio will have connected to your router, and then made a connection to the Internet and set its clock. If this is the case, then you can try listening to radio stations via the Internet as described on page 15 onwards.

Changing the network connection

In the sections above, you chose how your radio would be connected, either using a WiFi connection, or using a wired Ethernet cable. From time to time, you may ﬁnd that you need to connect differently, or to different computer networks. The Internet setup menu allows you to conﬁgure your radio’s network settings, scan for a connection to an alternative wireless network, or to manually conﬁgure the network parameters.

The steps outlined below describe how you can do this. If you have no need to do this, however, please skip to page 15.

Conﬁguring the radio to use the wired Ethernet connection

1. From the radio’s Internet setup menu, select 'Wizard'. This menu will present you with details of any WiFi networks. Scroll down the list using the Tuning/Select control to the '[Wired]' options. Press the control to select this.

The radio will switch to using its Ethernet connection to communicate with the network. By default

the radio will acquire an IP address from your router using DHCP. This will require your radio to be physically connected to a wired Ethernet using the RJ-45 socket at the back of the radio.

Conﬁguring the radio to use the WiFi connection

2. From the radio’s Internet setup menu, select 'Wizard'. This menu will present you with details of any WiFi networks which are found. Scroll down the list using the Tuning/Select control to desired network name. Press the control to select this.

The radio will switch to using its WiFi system to communicate with the network. Depending on the

network settings you may need to enter an encryption key (see page 11). By default the radio will acquire an IP address from your router using DHCP.

Entering the WiFi network name manually

Wizard PC settings View settings >Manual settings

Wired >Wireless

>DHCP enable DHCP disable

If your network is conﬁgured with a hidden ESSID, then you will need to enter the network name manually. This is part of the manual conﬁguration options for your radio. As such you will also be required to set up some other network details manually. Unless you are familiar with networking and related terminology, we recommend that you set your router to allow your ESSID to be broadcast. (While a hidden ESSID may prevent casual observers from detecting your network, it is not recommended as a means of network security.)

1. From the radio’s Internet setup menu, select 'Manual settings'. You then have a choice of 'Wired' or 'Wireless' networks. Choose 'Wireless'. The next menu asks whether you wish to use DHCP to conﬁgure your network. Choose 'DHCP enable' unless you need to specify all network details manually.

2. The next screen allows you to manually set up the ESSID. Characters are selected and entered using the Tuning/Select control. As you rotate the control, the radio shows different sets of characters. The character currently ﬂashing will be selected when you press the Tuning/Select control. Do this as needed until the complete key has been entered. The three characters at the right-hand end of the list have special functions.

Introducing Internet radio

Before you can use your radio to listen to broadcasts via the internet, it is necessary to have already connected your radio to your computer network using either the WiFi connection or the wired Ethernet connection (RJ-45 socket) on the back of the radio. Please see page 9 for details.

There are literally many thousands of broadcasts available via the internet. Your radio provides several ways of searching for broadcasts in order to make ﬁnding and choosing broadcasts easier. Once you have found radio stations which you like, you may either store them as presets within the radio, or add them to a list of your favourite stations which your radio can access. The number of presets is limited (there are ﬁve 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 ﬁnd 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 see a list of 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 radio 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 WM-202 radio connects to a radio station database which 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 which have been recently added to those available (new stations) or you can search for the most popular.

control to conﬁrm your chosen radio station. The display will show 'Connecting...' while the radio connects to the new station. The radio should then start playing. Adjust the volume as needed.

9. If the station has on-demand content, that is, it gives the option of listening to programmes which have already been broadcast or to Podcasts, there will be an additional screen showing the radio station name as well as a 'Podcasts' option.

These are selected using additional menus, determined by the radio

station and the content. There may simply be a list of programmes, or there may also be options to chose from broadcasts on particular dates or days of the week. The examples shown here are typical.

Podcasts and Listen Again content can also be accessed separately

from the main Internet Radio menu, see page 19.

If your radio cannot connect to a radio station

Note: If you radio 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.

There may be network congestion (either locally or at a distance)

which is affecting the reliability of the connection.

If your radio 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.

Some radio stations allow you to listen to programmes that have already been broadcast. The BBC's Listen Again service is an example of this. In addition, radio broadcasters and individuals may make either one-off programmes or series of programmes which are intended normally to be downloaded into a computer to listen to, or to be copied onto a portable media player. These are commonly known as Podcasts.

On your WM-202 radio, both Listen Again programmes and Podcasts are grouped together under the category called Podcasts, and the same menu is used to access and listen to either type of programming.

2. Rotate the Tuning/Select control until 'Stations' is selected on the display. Press the Tuning/Select control to select.

3. You may then search by location, genre, or using part of the name of the podcast. The searches operate in exactly the same way as when searching for a conventional radio station.

Searching by location is done ﬁrst by continent, then by country. You

may then list 'All shows' or search within a country by genre.

Searching by genre is more direct, since once the genre is chosen the

next menu display shows a list of available podcasts for the selected genre.

Searching by name operates in the same way as when searching

for a named radio station. You may enter one or more pieces of text which will be used for the search.

4. Rotate the Tuning/Select control and press the Tuning/Select to conﬁrm your chosen podcast. The display will show connecting while it ﬁnds a new station.
