2. Getting Started This chapter explains how to set up your media player after you've completed the steps in the printed Quick Start Guide, and describes how the screens, menus, and remote control work. Follow the instructions in this chapter to: • Power on your media player for the first time (see next section). • Connect a FreeAgent drive or external USB drive (see page 9). • Learn to navigate the media player screens and menus (see page 9). • Add a WiFi adapter to the media player (see page 13). • Adjust the network settings on the media player (see page 13). • Sharing media files over the network (see page 13). • See what your next steps are (see page 13). • Find more help (see page 14). Powering On For the First Time Your first step is to set up your media player by connecting it to a TV, your local wired or wireless network, and a power source. (See the printed Quick Start Guide included in the box for complete instructions.) When you first connect your media player to a power source, the media player's LED flashes amber. When the media player is ready to use, the LED stops flashing. (A solid amber LED means that the media player is turned off. To learn more, see "Understanding the Media Player's LEDs" on page 38.) To continue setting up your media player: 1. Turn on your TV. 2. Press Power on the media player remote. 3. The initial setup screen opens. 4. Select a language for the on-screen menus, then press OK. TIP: You can change the menu language at any time. See "Changing the Menu Language" on page 52. 4. Set the date and time, then press OK. The Home screen opens. Now you're ready to start using your media player. 8
