Set up the SqueezeBox player
1. Connect the SqueezeBox player's RCA (red and white) outputs to the
corresponding RCA inputs on your amplifier, receiver, powered speakers, or
other audio equipment you wish to use with your SqueezeBox player.
The SqueezeBox player outputs are standard, line level, RCA audio output
jacks.
2. If you will be using an Ethernet network connection with your SqueezeBox,
connect the SqueezeBox Ethernet port to your Ethernet hub or switch using
an Ethernet patch cable.
Note: You may need to use an Ethernet crossover cable to connect the SqueezeBox
player directly to the Ethernet jack in your computer.
3. Insert two AAA batteries in the Slim Devices remote control.
4. Connect the SqueezeBox player power supply. You can leave the SqueezeBox
player plugged in at all times. When not in use it enters standby mode, powers
down the display, and draws only a few milliamps.
Caution: The SqueezeBox player is supplied with a 5 volt, 1600ma switching power
supply. You must use only this power supply. Connecting a different power supply
may damage the player. Such damage is not covered under the SqueezeBox
warranty.
5. Once the SqueezeBox player has power, use the remote control to enter its
network (IP address) information.
