Installing Utility for In-Wall Unit
Before installing Utility for In-Wall Unit
software
When the Utility for In-Wall Unit software is installed, the
“Server Setup, powered by DiXiM” software is installed at
the same time.
Disable any virus protection software before installing the
Utility for In-Wall Unit software.
1 Turn on your computer, and start up Windows.
2 Insert the supplied CD-ROM into your computer’s CD
or DVD drive.
The setup program starts automatically, and then the
installation window appears.
3 Follow the on-screen instructions.
Read the instructions carefully.
If any trouble occurs during the installation, see
“Troubleshooting” (page 34).
To uninstall the Utility for In-Wall Unit or the
“Server Setup, powered by DiXiM”
To uninstall the Utility for In-Wall Unit or the “Server
Setup, powered by DiXiM,” follow the steps below. To
uninstall both software programs, perform the procedure
twice, selecting a different program each time.
1 Click “Start” on the Windows taskbar to select
“Control Panel.”

For your computer to be able to communicate with your
installed Units, the computer and the Units must be on a
single 100BASE-TX network. Typically, this requires
100BASE-TX Ethernet cabling and a 100BASE-TX router,
hub, or switch. For details on setting up such a network,
refer to the instruction manual supplied with your router,
hub, or switch, and consult with the local installer of your
Units.
If other network devices are connected to the same
network as your Units and your computer, these devices
may be able to “see” your Units on the network or may
be “seen” by your Units or computer. This does not
mean, however, that these other products will be able to
use the network features of the Units and the Utility for
In-Wall Units software, such as music streaming.

1 Select the Unit you want to delete from the
“Permitted List” or the “Denied List.”
2 Click “Delete” at the center of the window.
The name of the selected Unit disappears from the

3 Click “OK” or “Apply.”
The selected Unit is deleted from the list.
If an access request received from the deleted Unit, it is
added to the “Denied List” automatically.
Note
For security reasons, it is strongly recommended that your network
be protected by a router or firewall device if it is connected to the
Internet.
If your network is connected to the Internet and is not protected by
such a device, it is strongly recommended that the default setting
that causes new devices to be automatically placed on the “Denied
List” be maintained. If you change the “Server Setup, powered by
DiXiM” settings so that new devices are automatically placed on
the “Permitted List,” unauthorized users on the Internet may be
able to access shared content on your “Server Setup, powered by
DiXiM” computer.
3 Click “Rebuild Database.”
A confirmation window appears.
4 Click “Yes.”
The server database is rebuilt.
Notes
• Files and folders whose “Hidden files” property check box is
selected cannot be accessed.
• The time required to rebuild the database varies with the number
of files included in the shared folder. Depending on the situation,
it might take a considerable amount of time to rebuild.
• A “Shared folder” (page 26) and a “Watched folder” (this page)
are the same thing.
Setting up a shared folder from “Server Setup, powered by DiXiM”
You can add a shared folder or stop sharing a folder from
within either the Utility for In-Wall Unit software or “Server
Setup, powered by DiXiM.”
For details about adding a shared folder and stopping a
folder from being shared, see page 26.
To rebuild the Media Server database
Ordinarily, the “Server Setup, powered by DiXiM”
automatically keeps track of changes to the files in shared
folders.
In rare situations, however, the Media Server may be unable
to recognize changes to shared files. For example, if another
program modifies a shared audio file, but does not update
the file’s modification time stamp, the Media Server may be
unaware of the change and therefore not update its
database of shared file information.
In this situation, you can manually force the Media Server
to rebuild its database so it contains the latest shared file
information.
1 Click the “Shared Folder” tab on the “Server Setup,
powered by DiXiM” window.
2 Click the path of the folder whose database
information you want to rebuild from the ”Published
Folder List.”
