5.1.1.5. Setting up FM Radio presets
The DMW300 provides the facility to scan the air and store the available FM broadcast frequencies.
However, some of the scanned frequencies might not provide good enough reception. You can deter-
mine if any scanned frequency should be stored or not in the preview session accordingly, and also
name and order the frequencies the way you like. Go to SET_MENU>FM_RADIO and then press the
wheel to invoke ENTER. You can now choose various scan parameters:
Choose REGION and scroll to the applicable entry then press ENTER; this will select the FM
frequency range of your territory. The unit will return to to SET_MENU>FM_RADIO afterwards.
Choose SEEK RSSI (received signal strength indicator). This allows the DMW300 to search for
frequencies that are of higher received signal than the indicator. The default value is 10dBuV. The
unit will return to SET_MENU>FM_RADIO after you made your choice.
Choose SEEK SNR (signal to noise ratio). This allows the DMW300 to search for frequencies that
have signal-to-noise value higher than the selected indicator. The default value is 10dBuV. The unit
will return to SET_MENU>FM_RADIO after you made your choice.
You are now ready to run the frequency scan: Choose SCAN to enter the frequency scanning option
and confirm YES by pressing ENTER once again, this will erase all your current presets and start the
scanning a new. The number of scanned frequencies will be displayed. Press ENTER to preview the
scanned frequencies. The radio at the lowest frequency of the scanned values will be highlighted.
Press ENTER to listen and take actions per the pop up window:
Move down - exchange the position with the frequency below it
Delete – remove it
Name it – assign a name to the frequency with Navigation dial and RWD/FWD buttons. Note that
naming a station only replaces the displayed frequency by the defined name alias, the RDS informa
tion (since displayed in a separate tag line) is not affected by this.
Fine tune it – adjust the reception frequency in steps of 50 KHz for the best listening experience
(use RWD/FWD buttons)
Press Back when you finish. Note that any change will only be saved if you leave the SET mode with
saving the changes, as described in 5.1.
ADVICE: If your broadband internet connection is provided by a wired Ethernet connection via the
rear-side RJ45 port from a DHCP-enabled router, and the user interface language suits you, then no
further settings are necessary. The DMW300 will automatically acquire an IP address, and you are
ready to go. You can skip the following steps 5.1.1.7., 5.1.1.8. and 5.1.1.9. If you connect the
DMW300 however to a network with fixed IP addresses, to a WiFi network or if you wish to change
the user interface language, please refer to the following:
5.1.1.7. Configure for wired access to network with fixed IP addresses
IP address and the DNS address can either be assigned by hand or automatically by the DHCP server
(default) in the local network or statically. Make sure you are in the SET_MENU root and navigate to
SET_MENU>NETWORK_SETUP> WIRED_LAN, then press the wheel to invoke ENTER. A pop up
window will prompt you to select either Dynamic or Fixed:
To choose Dynamic, scroll the DYNAMIC and press the wheel to invoke ENTER; no further action is
needed if you choose Dynamic.
To choose Fixed, scroll to FIXED and press the wheel to invoke ENTER; you will be prompted with
IP:?, GW:?, NW:? and DNS:?. Step through each item and supply the network parameters in turn.
Unless you are tech savvy enough, it is recommended that you stay with Dynamic to allow the local
DHCP server to supply the network parameters automatically.
In the case you need to use a dedicated DNS server, you can specify one even if you choose Dynamic
under IP:Dynamic. Go to SET_MENU>NET_SETUP>WIRED_LAN>DNS:[Dynamic] and press the wheel
to ENTER. Choose FIXED in the pop up window and enter the desired DNS address and press the
wheel to ENTER. The DMW300 will skip the DNS address supplied by the DHCP and use your desig-
nated DNA address.
Note that any change will only be saved if you leave the SET mode with saving the changes, as
described in 5.1.
