Connecting to a wireless network

IMPORTANT: Do not plug/unplug the Wi-Fi aerial dongle when the unit is on.

Place the Minx Xi in range of your wireless network (usually 10-30m of a suitable

wireless transmitter, although this is affected by walls and the construction of your

building) and turn it on, via the front panel switch.

10-30m distance

Wireless broadband

Router/Modem

Internet

The Minx Xi will automatically connect and obtain an IP address from your wireless

network. For advanced users, if you would like to give your Minx Xi a static IP

address, then see the 'Network cong' section of the manual.

Note: If you make a mistake at any point, you can always press the

button to go

back to the previous screen.

The unit will now scan for all available wireless networks and will display "Scanning".

If it can't nd one then the display will say: "No Wireless Networks Found". If this

happens then you need to either move the Minx Xi nearer your wireless access point

or investigate if there is an issue with your wireless network.

When the Minx Xi nds your wireless network, it displays the broadcast name

(ESSID) for the access point – this is a name allocated to the access point by

whoever set up the network, it may either be a default name for your router/

wireless or may be a more familiar name such as "Johns Wi-Fi" etc. If your Minx Xi

nds more than one wireless network you can simply choose which one you want to

connect to. Turn the rotary dial to see the ESSID for each wireless network.

When the ESSID for the wireless network you want to connect to is displayed on

the screen, press the SELECT button. If your network is not congured with an

encryption code, the screen should say "Connecting to network" then "Network OK".

If the screen displays either "Enter WEP key" or "Enter WPA key", then the network

is using one of the supported encryption systems: Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP)

or Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA). You now need to enter your correct WEP or WPA

code. The person who set up the wireless network in the rst place will know what

this code is (or be able to reset it to a new known code); if that person is not you,

then you need to nd out what it is.

After 3 seconds, the display goes into the code entry mode. To enter the code, use

the rotary dial to select each character of the code in turn, pressing the SELECT

button after entering each character.

Note: The WEP and WPA codes are case sensitive, so you must enter them exactly.

After entering the nal character, use the rotary dial to select the

character and

press the SELECT button. It's a little ddly but you will only need to do this once. The

Minx Xi will remember this code and use it automatically from now on.

The unit should now be able to connect to the network.

Speaker connections

Check the impedance of your speakers. Speakers with an impedance of between 4

and 8 Ohms are recommended.

The red coloured speaker terminals are positive (+) and the black speaker

terminals are negative (-). Make sure correct polarity is maintained at each speaker

connector or the sound can become weak and "phasey" with little bass.

Prepare the speaker cords for connection by stripping off approximately 10mm

(3/8") or less of the outer insulation. More than 10mm could cause a short circuit.

Twist the wires tightly together so there are no loose ends. Push in the terminal,

insert the speaker cable through the hole in the side of the terminal and release

the terminal so it clamps down on the wire.

Note: All connections are made using standard loudspeaker cable. If an active

subwoofer is used, connect via a standard single RCA/phono cable (often referred

to as a 'Sub-Link').

Analogue audio connections

Note: Do not plug in the mains power lead or turn the unit on until all connections

have been made.

Audio player/recorder

(Tape/MD/CD-R)

CD player

Out

Connect to source equipment using stereo phono/RCA cables (stereo 2RCA- 2RCA).

Tape/MD/CDR recorder/players require two sets of stereo phono/ RCA cables, one

for recording, one for listening.

I have been using the Cambridge Audio Minx Xi for a few years now. The most recent firmware update has been done successfully. Now I am having issues with song display on the radio stations I am using. The designated radio stations are showing in the display screen, however, a blank screen where the song playing should show. Any suggestions would be most helpful? Thanks.
