The sound skips. Sound skipping may occur in the following cases:

When music is being recorded onto the server

When the computer is running many applications

When the network status is crowded

When multiple CPF-IX001 systems are performing playback simultaneously

When the computer and the wireless LAN router are connected by a wireless connection, change it to a wired connection.

When the wireless LAN router and the CPF- IX001 are connected by a wireless connection, position the CPF-IX001 as close to the wireless LAN router as possible.

Track names are not displayed. Some types of input characters cannot be

displayed by the CPF-IX001, even if they can be registered and displayed on the server.

Operation commands take time. Depending on the condition of the server, it may

take a while until operation proceeds. For example, when there is no response after pressing m/M, keep pressing m/M for a while. Afterwards, operation should begin.

Wireless connection does not work well. Check that the wireless settings (SSID, Security

mode, Key) match the settings of your wireless LAN router.

AES (Advanced Encryption Standard) An encryption protocol employed by the wireless LAN encryption systems WPA and WPA2. AES has more advanced security functions than TKIP.

Default gateway When communicating with devices that exist on a different network, the data is first transferred to a node (relay point) called a gateway. However, when the gateway to which the data should be transmitted is not known, the data is transferred to the most typical node called the default gateway.

DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) A system for automatically allocating configuration data required for an Internet connection.

IP address IP addresses usually comprise four groups of up to three digits each, separated by a period (such as 192.168.239.1). All devices on a network must have an IP address.

MAC address (Media Access Control Address) A unique number set to identify a network interface on a network. A unique address is assigned to each interface connected to a network.

SSID (Service Set Identifier) The name used by a wireless LAN to identify a specific network. The same SSID is set for both the wireless LAN router and the device with wireless LAN functions, and wireless communication is possible between devices with matching SSID.

Subnet mask Part of an IP address that identifies the subnet, a smaller group on the network.

TKIP (Temporal Key Integrity Protocol) An encryption protocol employed by the wireless LAN encryption systems WPA and WPA2. TKIP prevents decoding of encryption keys and spoofing, and has more advanced security functions than WEP.

WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) A data encryption system employed by wireless LAN. WEP technology uses the same 64-bit or 128-bit encryption key for both devices communicating over a wireless LAN to prevent data from being decoded by other devices.

WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access) The wireless LAN encryption standard advocated by the wireless LAN industry group Wi-Fi Alliance. The WPA standard features stronger security than WEP.

WPA2 (Wi-Fi Protected Access 2) The new wireless LAN encryption standard advocated by the wireless LAN industry group Wi-Fi Alliance. The WPA2 standard features even stronger security than WPA.

On safety The unit is not disconnected from the AC power

source (mains) as long as it is connected to the wall outlet, even if the unit itself has been turned off.

Unplug the system from the wall outlet (mains) if it is not to be used for an extended period of time. To disconnect the power cord (mains lead), pull it out by the plug. Never pull the cord itself.

Should any solid object or liquid fall into the system, unplug the system and have it checked by qualified personnel before operating it any further.

AC power cord (mains lead) must be changed only at the qualified service shop.

Use only the supplied subwoofer (AC power adaptor). Do not use any other AC power adaptor.

On placement Do not place the system in an inclined position.

Do not place the system in locations where it is;

Extremely hot or cold

Dusty or dirty

Very humid

Subject to vibrations

Subject to direct sunlight.

Use caution when placing the unit on surfaces that have been specially treated (with wax, oil, polish, etc.) as staining or discoloration of the surface may result.

On heat buildup Although the system heats up during operation, this

is not a malfunction.

Place the system in a location with adequate ventilation to prevent heat buildup in the system.

If you continuously use this system at a high volume, the cabinet temperature of the top, side and bottom rises considerably. To avoid burning yourself, do not touch the cabinet.

To prevent a malfunction, do not cover the ventilation hole.

If you have any questions or problems concerning your system, please consult your nearest Sony dealer.

Cleaning the cabinet Clean the cabinet, panel and controls with a soft cloth slightly moistened with mild detergent solution. Do not use any type of abrasive pad, scouring powder or solvent such as thinner, benzine or alcohol.
