Additional Settings - Sonos Multi-Room Music System User Manual

Chapter5: The Sonos® Controller 200
Advanced Settings
The Advanced Settings menu provides you with some additional menu choices:
• Motion Sensor. The motion sensor automatically wakes your Controller when motion is detected. Use this setting to turn the
motion sensor 'on', 'off', or 'off while charging', which will disable the motion sensor only when your Controller is seated in
the cradle.
• Language. Use this setting to select your language preference. When you change your language preference, the Controller
restarts.
• Turn Off Controller. Use this setting to put your Controller into deep sleep 
anytime it will not be in use for an extended period of time, or when you are transporting your Controller to another destina-
tion. This setting puts the Controller into deep sleep mode immediately rather than waiting for the deep sleep timer setting
to be reached. The Controller cannot be turned off while it is seated in the charging cradle.
• Factory Reset Controller. Use this setting to return the Controller to its original factory settings. This will disconnect the Con-
troller from your Sonos Multi-Room Music System entirely (you can add it again at any time.) This may be necessary if the
Controller gets associated to the wrong Sonos system during setup, or if you wish to join your Controller to a different Sonos
Multi-Room Music System (for example, if you are setting up a previously used Sonos system.)
• Restart Controller. There may be an occasion when you need to renew your DHCP lease (get a new IP address from your
Internet provider's DHCP server.) If this occurs, you can use this setting to restart your Controller.

Additional Settings

Upon occasion, it may become necessary to adjust some of the default settings for your Sonos Multi-Room Music System.

• Filename
See "Sort folders by preference" on page 4-11 for more information.
Selecting a different wireless channel
The Sonos Multi-Room Music System selects the optimal radio frequency channel during setup. However, if you have other
wireless devices using this channel, you may want to switch the Sonos Multi-Room Music System to another channel to avoid
conflicts, as conflicts may cause audio drop-outs.
From the Music Menu, touch Settings.
1.
Select Advanced Settings>Wireless Channel.
2.
Select a different wireless channel.
3.
It may take several seconds for the switch to take effect. If you have music playing, a short music dropout will occur during the
wireless channel change.
