SECTION 8: WHEN YOU ARE FINISHED USING SOUNDBRIDGE
When you are finished playing music and using your SoundBridge altogether, just press the
Standby [] button on your remote. In Standby mode, SoundBridge can display the date and
time or a blank display, depending on your preference. (See page 40 for more information
about setting these preferences.)
If you were playing Internet radio when you pressed Standby, then pressing Standby again will
resume playback of that station. Otherwise it will return you to the music library to which you
were most recently connected.
If you plan to disconnect SoundBridge from AC power after you are done using it, be sure to
press the Standby button first. This logs you out of the music server software running on your
computer.
Note: Wait approximately 10 seconds after pressing Standby [] before unplugging
SoundBridge; this gives SoundBridge time to flush its settings for a clean reboot.
Hint: If you unplug the SoundBridge from AC power five times without pressing
Standby [] on your remote first, iTunes may lock you out of connecting to the server.
That’s because iTunes allows a maximum of five users to connect at one time, and if
you don’t put SoundBridge into standby mode first, iTunes may believe you are still
connected. To restore your access to the iTunes server, close iTunes and then restart it.
You should then have no trouble connecting to the iTunes server as before.
SECTION 9: ADVANCED FEATURES
Brightness, Contrast, Font, and Text Display
The Bright [] button on your remote lets you change the brightness of your display using the
Left/Right arrows . For SoundBridge M1000, text size and font options can be controlled
using the Up/Down arrows . (M1000 can display one line or two lines at once.)
Brightness & Time Format While in Standby
While your SoundBridge is in Standby mode (when the unit displays the time and is not playing
music), you can adjust the brightness and format of the time on the display.
• Use the Right/Left [
] to adjust the brightness of your display. Pressing Left [ ] dims the
clock display; pressing Right [] brightens it. These settings do not affect the brightness
settings of the display when playing Internet or network music libraries.
• Use Up/Down [
] arrows to change the time format. You can display large or small
fonts, display the time but not the date, and display the time and date. These settings do
not apply to when you are listening to the radio or your music libraries.
