Micromega WM-10 Bedienungsanleitung

USER GUIDE

WM-10

Dear customer,

Thank you for choosing MICROMEGA’s WM-10 Wi-Fi music streamer.

WM10 fully complies with the IEEE 802.11n standard which offers a greater range than the previous norms.

The WM-10 allows you to listen to music stored on your computer using your hifi system. Please take time to carefully read through this

user guide and learn how to get the most out of your player.

INITIAL CHECKS CONNECTIONS

Check the state of the packaging before opening. If you have

any doubts about this, contact your dealer immediately. Using the supplied power cord, connect the device to the mains

and check that the On-Off switch is in the O position.

Connect the stereo output on the WM-10 to a line input on your

hi-fi system.

UNPACKING

Take special care when removing the device from its box. We

advise you to store the packaging safely in a dry place for

further use. If the device needs to be sent back to your dealer at

a later point, it must be sent back in its original packaging. This

is an essential warranty condition.

A digital output is also available if required. However, it is worth

noting that endless listening sessions have proved that sound

quality is better when using the stereo output.

SWITCHING THE DEVICE ON

When all of the connections have been made, you can switch

the device on by using the On-Off switch, located to the left of

the power socket on the rear panel. On the front panel, a blue

LED lights up for a second then switches to red, indicating that

the initialization procedure is under way.

ACCESSORIES

You will find the following accessories inside the box:

−A power cord

−A stereo cable When the WM-10 is ready to be used, the LED turns blue -

please be patient, this operation may take a few minutes.

MAINS VOLTAGE QUICK AIRDREAM NETWORK CONNECTION

- Check that the mains voltage indicated on the identification

label, which can be found both on the side of the box and

underneath the device, corresponds to the mains voltage in

your home.

The WM-10 is already configured to ensure easy installation.

The procedure is slightly different according to whether you

have a MAC or a PC. However, your computer must be Wi-Fi

compatible.

- If it does not correspond, contact your authorized dealer.

For Macintosh users:

INSTALLATION - Your computer will detect the AIRDREAM network as soon as

it is available. Connect your computer to this network by using

the default user password “airdream”.

In order to make the most of all of the features of this device, it

is important to install it correctly.

We advise you, as far as possible, to install the WM-10 on a

shelf in a hi-fi rack or cabinet. For PC users:

When the WM-10 is ready, use your computer to detect the

wireless networks available. By default, the name of the Wi-Fi

network is AIRDREAM and the default password is

“airdream”. If this network figures in the list, select it and

connect your computer.

Due to the nature of Wi-Fi technology, there are other elements

which also need to be taken into account:

- Position your music streamer in an open area,

avoiding obstructions such as large pieces of furniture or walls.

Avoid placing it in areas surrounded by metallic surfaces on 3 or

more sides. If for any reason the WM-10 AIRDREAM network does not

figure in the list, check that the Wi-Fi connection is active.

Refresh the list of available networks and check the status of

the LED on the WM-10: it should be blue.

Try to position it at least 8m away from a microwave

oven, DECT (2.4GHz) cordless telephones or any other source

of interference.

HOW TO LISTEN TO AN AUDIO FILE OR RADIO

STATION

Your streamer is now ready to function and is connected to the

network. To stream your music files to the WM-10 you need to

use iTunes.

If you have not already installed it, download the software from

the Apple website (www.apple.com/en/itunes).

Now, launch the iTunes application. Once you have opened it,

select the loudspeakers on which you wish to listen to your

music. Usually, the choice-list can be found in the bottom right-

hand corner of the iTunes window. Select WM10_XXXXXX,

(where X represents the serial number of your Airdream

terminal).

And that’s all there is to it, you are now ready to listen to music.

Select the audio file you wish to play, then just sit back and

listen!

If you are already connected to internet via your home network

(see following paragraph), you can also add radio streams to

your play-list. Click on Advanced > Open stream and add the

address to the URL field.

iPhone OR iTouch REMOTE CONTROL

If you have an iPhone or an iTouch, they can both be used as a

remote control.

To do this, you must first download the Remote free application

from the App Store.

On your iPhone or iTouch, in the Settings menu, set up the Wi-

Fi connection using the AIRDREAM network and the password

“airdream “. Then select “Add Library“ and follow the

instructions on the screen. Once synchronized, your iPod or

iTouch displays the contents of iTunes.

CONNECTION TO THE HOME WI-FI NETWORK

If you have a wireless home internet access via a “box”, you

can also connect your WM-10 to that network.

This enables you to listen to internet radio stations on your hi-fi

system and continue to surf on the internet and listen to your

music at the same time.

To do this, follow the reset procedure detailed below, followed

by the specific configuration procedure for your network. To find

out more about configuration, please consult the specific

instruction sheet available on the Micromega website:

www.micromega-hifi.com.

RESET

If you wish to rename your network or connect to an existing

network, or if you are having any problems, you MUST reset

your WM-10. This is not a trivial procedure and we advise you

to do this only when it is absolutely necessary.

Before starting, check the serial number: WM10_XXXXXX and

write it down. This is even more important if you have several

wireless peripherals.

With the device switched on, using the tip of a pen or a paper

clip, press the Reset button for a few seconds (it is situated on

the rear panel) until the LED is flashing rapidly in Red. This

indicates that the reset is complete and you can now

reconfigure the device. To do so, consult the specific instruction

sheet available on the Micromega website: www.micromega-

hifi.com.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

My computer doesn’t detect AIRDREAM. What

should I do?

Ensure that the LED on the WM-10 is blue and is not flashing. If

this is not the case, switch the device off then switch it back on

again. Wait until the setup procedure is complete (this may take

a few minutes).

Ensure that the Wi-Fi connection with your computer is active

and that no other peripheral device is connected to your WM-

10. Open the list of available networks and the AIRDREAM

network should appear.

An error message is displayed when I play a track on

iTunes.

Check that your firewall authorizes connections between your

computer and the WM-10 (for example if the Windows firewall is

activated, ensure that the box entitled “Don’t authorize

exceptions” is not checked). Pay special attention to the

settings of your antivirus software too.

Ensure that you have installed the latest version of the iTunes

software.

In some cases an update of the WM-10 firmware may also be

necessary.

My internet connection is suddenly interrupted for no

apparent reason.

Check that no other network is interfering with the connection.

Do not place the device close to any potential source of

interference and set the AIRDREAM network as your preferred

network.

Most of the time, interruptions are not caused by the WM10 but

depends on the place WM10 and your computer are installed.

For instance, in a building with metallic structure, the WiFi

connection can be troubled.

The LED on the WM-10 is flashing slowly in red.

The setup procedure has failed. You must complete the setup

procedure. To find out how to do so, consult the specific

instruction sheet available on the Micromega website:
