Troubleshooting

The

MC200Air

does

not turn

on.

Plug

a lamp

into

the

wall

power

outlet

to

be sure

the

outlet

has

power.

Check

all

the

power

connections

to

be sure everything

is

completely

plugged

in-

the

power

cord

to

the

wall

outlet,

the

power

cord

to

the

power

supply, and the

power

s

upply

output

cable

into

the

back

of

the

system.

What

should

I

do

if the network connection

process

fails?

•

Try "power

cycling"-

that

is,

do

a complete, cold shut

down

and

restart-

of

the

various

components

of

the

network, such

as

the

wireless router, or your

computer

if

you

are

playing from iTunes.

Some devices may

need

to

have their

power

supplies disconnected in order

to

be

completely

powered off.

•

Try adjusting

the

antenna

to

a different position and re-try the connection process.

• Check

to

be sure your router

is

"discoverable". This means

that

the

router

will"broadcast"to

other

devices,

letting

them

know

that

is

it active and

will

not

require you

to

know

the

network

name

of

the router.

See

your router instructions for more information.

•

Be

sure your router does

not

"hide" its

SSID

name.

To

enhance security, some routers "hide" their

SSID

names.

See

the instructions for your router for information

on

how

to

"unhide"

the

router name.

•

Be

sure

the

SSID

name

of

your router

has

only

normal characters and digits. Do

not

use symbols or

punctuation

characters.

See

the

information in

the

Option

2 connection section.

•

Turn

off

the

WEP

encryption

system

if

your router

has

it. The MC200Air

will

not

connect

to

a

network

when

this security system

is

active. Turn it back on

when

you

are

done

with

the

network

connection

process.

See

your router instructions for more information.

When

using

the

Option

2 network connection method, the Network

Setup

window

does

not appear when

I

enter

"http:/

/169.254.1.1"

in

the

browser

address

window.

Check

the

"proxy"

setting

of

your browser.

If

necessary reset

the

browser

to

allow connections

without

the

use

of

proxies.

The

MC200Air

is

on

and

connected

to

my

network (the

AIR

button

is

lit

green) but

no

music

is

playing.

•

Be

sure

the

source

is

actually playing,

not

paused or stopped.

• Check

the

-4X

(mute)

button

to

be sure it

is

not

lit

red.

•

Press

the+

volume

up

a couple

of

times

to

be sure the

MC200Air

volume

level

is

not

turned

all

the way

down

.

• Check

the network settings for the music

source-

iOS

device, DLNA device or

computer

.

Be

sure

Wi

-

Fi

is

active

and it

is

connected

to

your network.

The~

AirPlay

icon should appear at the

bottom

of

the

iTunes window.

• If

the

music source

is

a computer, be sure its

volume

level

is

not

turned

down

all

the

way, or

that

its sound

is

muted.

•

Try

turning

the

Wi

-

Fi

system

off

and back on. Try

"power cycling" your device. Try

power

cycling your router.

Note:

The latest and most capable

network

is

the

"class

n"

system (more completely it

is

designated

the

"IEEE

802.

11

n"

system).

Older routers used

the

"class

g"

or

"class

b"

system. Many routers

will

connect

to

all

three

systems,

"n';

"g"

or

"b': The

MC200Air

operates

with

"n';

"g"

or "b" systems,

howev

e

r,

it

will

not

connect

to

a

router

that

is

"class

n"

only, nor on a limited access "guest" network.

Why

does

my

music

sometimes

stop

briefly

and

then

start

playing

again?

Other

network

traffic, such

as

downloading

files or streaming movies from the internet, may cause brief

drop

outs. Try reducing

the

number

of

devices using

the

ne

twork

.

I

think

I

entered the

password

wrong during the

set

up-

what

do

I

do?

Do set

up

again.
