Argon iNet 1 Quick start Guide
What you need before you can use your iNet1 radio
Before you can use your Argon Internet radio, you need the following:
• A broadband Internet connection. + either:
• A wireless access point (Wi-Fi) connected to your broadband Internet, preferably via a
router or
• A network cable connection (RJ45) between your router and Internet radio or
• A “power line” network, using the electrical cabling in the house as distribution network
• If your wireless network is congured to use Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) or Wi-Fi Protected
Access (WPA) data encryption then you need to know the WEP or WPA code so you can get the
Argon Internet radio to communicate with the network.
If you have the possibility to connect the Argon Inet1 to your Internet with a cable (RJ45), it is absolu-
tely the best solution. This gives a more stable and also much faster connection.
On Wi-Fi the Argon Internet radio should work anywhere within 40 metres of the wireless access point.
Before you continue, make sure that, if you wish to use your Argon iNet1 in wireless mode, your
wireless access point is powered up and connected to your broadband Internet. To get this part of the
system working you must read the instructions supplied with the wireless access point.
Wireless Internet & FM Radio 5
A few helpful hints:
It takes a little time!
When you select a radio station the Argon iNet1 uses a web link to access the radio station.
If you are familiar with listening to Web radio through your PC or just browsing on the web, you will
know that the time it takes for the webpage or Web radio to be loaded, diers very much.
The same goes for the Argon iNet 1. You must not compare with a normal FM radio where changing
stations happen in an instant.
You will also experience that some radio stations are slower to load than others. This is again just as
browsing the web. Some web pages come up fast and some not.
As an example, if you choose a radio station based in China and you are sitting in Norway, the chan-
ces that the loading will take longer than if you choose a Norwegian based radio station, ar e very big.
This, as browsing the web, has to do with how many servers you have to go through and how fast
connections the dierent server providers have.
Finally, loading a radio station that broadcasts in 128 kb takes longer time than loading a radio station
broadcasting at 20 kb.
Broken links
From time to time you will also experience that a web radio you have chosen does not work. It is just
the same as a “broken Internet link” – with over 16.000 radio stations available, some come and some
go. The web radio is updated several times per day, but there is always a chance that some stations
come or go between the updates.

Connections
The points showed below correspond to each connection/function on the back side
of the Argon iNet1.
antenna this antenna is used only for FM. Be sure to extend the antenna fully when using FM
as playback source. (The Wi-Fi antenna is placed inside the Argon iNet1)
power plug insert the power supply plug from the power supply into this socket. Be sure not to
use any other power supplies than the one that comes with the Argon iNet1.
aux-in this connection allows you to connect an external device such as an MP3 player to
your Argon iNet1
line-out this connection allows you to connect the Argon iNet1 to a Hi-Fi system. You need
to use a mini jack stereo – RCA cable. We strongly recommend this solution as you
will have full-sound-experience of your Argon iNet1.
headphones this connection allows you to connect your headphones directly to the Argon iNet1
ethernet this connection allows you to use a LAN wired connection (RJ45) to the Internet. If it
is possible for you to wire the Argon iNet1 we recommend this solution.
Bass port The Argon iNet1 is optimized for optimal sound with a small driver in a small cabinet.
We have chosen to make a bass reex port in order to get a more “full” sound.
As some types of music or especially voices would need less emphasis on the bass
we have included a small foam plug in the gift box. You can insert this foam plug
into the reex port and hereby get a more “tight sound”. A helpful hint is also to
experiment with the placement of the Argon iNet1. If you place it close to a wall it
will make more bass.

Steps for connecting your Argon iNet1 to your wireless network
Step 1 - Power up the Argon iNet1
Plug the cable from the mains adapter into the socket labelled 12-15V DC on the back of
the Argon iNet1.
CAUTION: Use only the mains adapter supplied with the radio. Connecting a power supply
with a different rating will cause permanent damage to the radio and may be hazardous.
The display on the front of the Argon iNet1 will light up and say:
After a few seconds, this will change to show:
Step 2 - Scan for a wireless network connection
When the display says <Scan for networks>, press the SELECT button.
(Note: if you make a mistake at any point, press the BACK button to go back to the previous
screen.)
