4.1 Connect the device to a Wi-Fi wireless network

Each device has a dedicated email address, which makes it possible for the device to receive
pictures directly from the Internet. To receive pictures, the device must be connected to the
Internet through a Wi-Fi gateway.

Here is how to connect your photo frame to a local Wi-Fi network:

First access the Main menu (quit the slide show if necessary). Scroll to Settings and press Menu or
" " this will enter the Settings menu. Then scroll to Wi-Fi settings and press " ".

The device will automatically start a scanning process to discover available wireless networks.

Using the UP and DOWN keys navigate the interface to select the Wi-Fi network you want to
connect to. Once selected just press the button to connect to this network.

If the network has its security enabled, the device will automatically pop up a window where you
can enter the security key. All other parameters are AUTOMATICALLY configured by your Pix-Star.

Note: A DHCP server must be running on your network in order to automatically assign an IP address
to your device. Most personal Wi-Fi networks run a DHCP server.

4.2 Register and Manage the Device on the WEB

First-time users should register their frame online by following these instructions:

Go to the www.pix-star.com webpage and click on “I want to register and choose an email
address for my Pix-Star®”.

Complete the form, choose a password and an email address you want to assign to your device,
and your device will be ready to use!

You can find the device ID (serial number) by accessing the Settings -> About Information menu
on your device.

5. Receive Pictures by Email Directly on the Device

To add a picture to your device, simply send an email with a picture attachment directly to your
device’s email address.

When the device receives a new picture, a small “enveloppe” icon will be displayed on the upper
right side of the screen. You can open the picture from the inbox by going to the main menu then
select the line where the “new message” display. You can also press the dedicated inbox button
on the remote control at the bottom right.

You can then choose to keep or delete the picture(s). If you delete a picture on the frame, it will
still be backed up on the website. Therefore, you will be able to view it or remove it
permanently by accessing the web site.

Note 1: You can send several pictures with the same email but you must ensure the email size does
not exceed 20 MB.

Note 2: You can configure FILTERS on incoming emails to select which person is allowed to send
photo-mails to your Pix-Star. To manage and configure the filtering options, log into your account
at www.pix-star.com.

On the frame, by going to the SETTINGS menu, then SYSTEM menu, you can configure the way
Pix-Star handles incoming photo-mails. You have the following choices:

- Manual (default option)

In this mode, when a new photo-mail arrives, your Pix-Star displays an icon (“envelope”) on
top of the slide show and a message on the main menu. You can manually open the
photo-mail by pressing the button at the bottom right of the remote control. This button
opens a window that displays photos individually, and provides the sender’s email address,
date and time (GMT format) and the subject of the email.

The manual mode is very convenient for providing full control on incoming photo-mails,
especially since you can immediately decide which photos you want to KEEP or DELETE.

- Automatic with notification

In this mode the device AUTOMATICALLY accepts photo-mails.

Photo-mails open one by one and the attached pictures are displayed for 10 seconds,
accepted then stored in the local memory of your device.

7

This mode is particularly suited for users who want simplicity, as it does not require much
interaction with the device.

- Automatic

This mode is the same as “automatic with notification” except that the device
AUTOMATICALLY accepts photo-mails WITHOUT previewing them on the screen for 10
seconds (photo-mails are added locally in a silent mode)

This mode is particularly suited for users who want simplicity, as it does not require any
interaction with the device.

Note: Once accepted, the photos arriving by email are stored in the “MY LOCAL PICTURES” menu
then “PIXSTAR” and “INBOX” sub menus.

6. Share Pictures with Friends Directly on the Device

The device allows you to easily share your pictures with your friends. To do so, press the
button while the picture in question is being displayed. Then, a menu will appear, which will
include the following options:

-To my friends: This item is linked to your contact list, as stored on the www.pix-star.com
website. You can quickly send pictures to all your friends or friends’ photo frames by selecting
them. If you want to modify your contact list, you need to log in the web site.

-To web albums: By choosing this option, the picture will be sent to a specific web album that
can be accessed through your personal area on the www.pix-star.com web site.

-To another email: This option allows you to send the picture to another device or email address.
You will then need to enter the recipient’s complete email address.

7. View Online Albums with the device

The device can display a slide show of pictures you stored online in your album via the
www.pix-star.com web site.

To manage the device associated with each of your online albums, log on to your personal area
on the www.pix-star.com web site. Choose the “My web albums” menu to upload or delete
albums. You can also use the same menu to define which album will be displayed on your
device.

Once the pictures have been uploaded onto the web site they can be seen and manipulated
immediately, and they should be visible on the device in less than a minute.

When in web album slide show mode, the device will automatically and periodically synchronize
its content with the web site.

When a picture is added to the online web album, the device will later add it onto its local
memory and slide show. When a picture is removed from the online web album, the device later
removes it from its local memory and slide show.

You can access pictures stored in your online albums from a large variety of providers such as
Picasa, Facebook, Smugmug, Shutterfly, FlickR, Mobile Me, Photo RSS, Padeleon, Koffeephoto, etc.

8

To configure Pix-Star so that it can access photos from these providers, you must log into your
account at www.pix-star.com

Support for new online providers is added regularly. We invite you to contact us at
[e-mail] if you want a specific provider to be added. You can also log into your
account at www.pix-star.com to see new additions.

8. Access pictures stored inside UPnP/DLNA servers on the local network

This device is UPnP/DLNA compatible, which makes it possible to access photos stored on the local
network inside a “UPnP/DLNA servers” directly from the device itself without copying the pictures
inside it’s local memory.

To access your UPnP/DLNA server content from the device go to the “My Local Pictures” menu then
choose “My Network Devices”. The device will automatically scan for devices on the network and
display a list of those supporting UPnP/DLNA (Note: Make sure your Wi-Fi connection is configured
properly before entering this menu).

Once a UPnP/DLNA server is found you will see it on the device menu, just select it then enter the
menu to browse its content and launch a slide show of the selected folders.

When playing a slide show of a UPnP/DLNA source the pictures are pulled out from the server in
streaming mode so it is necessary to keep the UPnP/DLNA server running so that the device can play
the slide show without interruption. Also, the Wi-Fi needs to be constantly available.

Note: Some UPnP/DLNA servers need a special configuration in order to work properly with the
device. Do not hesitate to check our BLOG where some explanation are provided or directly contact
us by email at [e-mail].

9. How to Use the Web Site

-How to select the weather forecast for specific cities and countries

The web site allows you to determine which weather forecasts will be displayed on your device.

Your weather forecasts will be accessible on your device by selecting “My web albums” (main
menu).

-How to manage your contacts

You can use the www.pix-star.com web site to add contacts and create a contact list directly
accessible from your device. It will allow you to send email to your friends from your photo frame,
without having to enter email addresses on the frame. You can easily modify, add or delete a
contact on this list.

Moreover, you can create groups, and instantly send your favourite photos to all members of a
specific group.

-How to filter your emails

You may choose to filter through all incoming emails to better control who is allowed to send
pictures to your Pix-Star® photo frame. You can choose one of the following options:

o Refuse all incoming emails except those coming from your “white list” (authorized

individuals)

o Accept all incoming emails except those coming from your “black list” (unauthorized

4.2 Configuration du compte utilisateur, enregistrement du produit (première
utilisation)

Lors de la première utilisation, il est nécessaire de créer un compte, une adresse e-mail associée au
produit et de s'enregistrer sur le site web www.pix-star.com en allant dans le lien situé sur la page
d'accueil. Il vous y sera demandé le numéro de série de l'appareil, qui figure au dos du produit ou
dans le menu « Configuration » puis le sous-menu « A propos ».

Remarque: Un serveur DHCP doit être activé sur votre borne
Wi-Fi afin d'affecter automatiquement une adresse IP à votre
appareil. La plupart des réseaux Wi-Fi en sont équipés.

5. Réception de photos par e-mail directement sur l'appareil

Pour incorporer des photos dans la mémoire du cadre afin qu'elles apparaissent dans le diaporama
principal vous pouvez les envoyer via e-mail. Pour cela, envoyer un e-mail à l'adresse du cadre avec
les photos que vous souhaitez inclure au diaporama en fichier joint, c’est un « photo-mail ».

Votre entourage peut donc envoyer des photos très facilement sur votre cadre par e-mail. Pour
cela, il vous suffit de leur communiquer l'adresse e-mail associée à votre Pix-Star® que vous avez
choisi au moment de l’enregistrement de votre cadre sur www.pix-star.com (par exemple :

[e-mail]).

Lorsqu'une nouvelle photo arrive par e-mail sur l'appareil une petite icône apparaît en haut à droite
de l'écran.

Pour ouvrir la boîte de réception et ainsi afficher les photos recues par photo-mail appuyer sur la
touche de réception en bas à DROITE de la télécommande ou aller sur le lien qui s’affiche dans le
menu principal.

Les images reçues apparaissent les unes après les autres et vous pouvez choisir de les conserver ou
de les effacer. Si vous choisissez d'effacer une image sur le cadre, celle-ci n'est pas perdue car elle
reste stockée sur le site web et vous pourrez la visionner ou la décharger à nouveau en vous y
connectant.

Les photos que vous conservez seront automatiquement stockées dans le menu « Mes albums
locaux » puis le sous-menu « PIXSTAR / INBOX ».

Il est aussi possible de configurer l’appareil pour que les photo-mails soient acceptés
AUTOMATIQUEMENT grâce aux modes « automatique » et « automatique avec alerte ».

L’utilisation de ces deux modes automatiques est particulièrement recommandée pour les
personnes souhaitant n’avoir pas à interagir avec l’appareil lorsqu’un photo-mail arrive et voulant
le maximum de simplicité.

En allant dans le menu CONFIGURATION puis le sous-menu SYSTEME le premier menu permet de
choisir entre 3 modes pour la gestion des photo-mails recus par l’appareil :

- Manuel (mode par défaut)

Dans ce mode, lorsqu’un photo-mail arrive dans l’appareil, celui-ci affiche une petite
envelope en haut à droite de l’écran du diaporama. Vous devez alors manuellement ouvrir
ce photo-mail en appuyant sur la touche dediée de la telecommande (en bas à droite). Une
fenêtre s’ouvre qui affiche la photo recue et vous propose, soit de la conserver, soit de
l’effacer, cet écran indique aussi l’email de la personne qui l’a envoyée, la date et l’heure
(GMT) et le sujet du mail.

Ce mode est particulièrement intéressant pour garder un control total sur les photo-mail
entrant et ainsi décider au fur et à mesure qu’ils arrivent de les conserver ou de les effacer
immediatement.

- Automatique avec alerte

Dans ce mode l’appareil accepte automatiquement les photo-mails entrant.

Remarque: Vous pouvez mettre plusieurs photos en pièce jointe des e-mail envoyés vers votre
Pix-Star, mais il est préférable toutefois que le total des fichiers joints ne dépasse pas 20 MB.
