3. Getting started/setup
Although the Argon iNet2+ is sophisticated, getting started is simple. To play DAB or FM radio, all
you need is a power source (a 100-240 V mains supply).
For Music Player mode, you need a wired/wireless Ethernet network and a UPnP music server
(e.g. a PC).
For Internet-connected modes such as Internet radio, you also need a broadband Internet
connection.
To set up the iNet2+:
1. Place iNet2+ on a suitable shelf or table
2. Connect the power adaptor between iNet2+ and the mains supply.
3. To receive broadcast radio (DAB and FM), extend the telescopic antenna.
The setup wizard starts.
www.argonaudio.com
iNet2+
18
3.1 Setup wizard
When iNet2+ is started for the first
time, it runs through a setup wizard to
configure settings for date/time and
network. Once this has finished, the
system is ready to use in most modes.
Note: To change these settings later,
select Menu > System settings >.
To run the setup wizard again, select
Menu > System settings > Setup
wizard.
Select Yes to start the setup wizard.
If you choose No, the next screen asks
if you would like to run the wizard next
time INet2+ is started. The system
then starts without configuring
time/date and network settings and
enters the Main Menu.
Note: If power is removed while the
wizard is in progress, the wizard will
run again next time iNet2+ is started.
www.argonaudio.com
iNet2+
19
3.1.1 12/24 hour display
To change between 12 and 24 hour display, select Set 12/24 hour and then select your preference.
3.1.2 Time/date
The time and date can be updated manually or automatically. With auto-update, the time and date are
automatically synchronised with external clocks. Auto-update is generally more accurate.
Auto-update
Auto-update works with data sent
over DAB, FM or the Internet. The
clock is only updated when in a
corresponding mode, so it is best to
select a mode you use regularly.
DAB and FM use time signals
broadcast with radio transmissions.
Network uses a time signal sent
from the Frontier Silicon Internet
radio portal when in any network-
connected mode.
www.argonaudio.com
iNet2+
20
1. Select Update from DAB, Update from FM, Update from Network or No update.
2. If you are updating from the network, set your time zone.
3. If your country uses daylight saving, the automatically updated time from the network may
be wrong by one hour. When daylight savings are in effect (during the winter), turn on the
Daylight savings option to rectify this.
Note that if you are updating the time from DAB or FM, the Daylight savings option has no
effect on the clock’s time.
iNet2+ will auto-update from the selected source when time information is available.
Manual set
If you set No update, the wizard now prompts you to set the time and date manually.
The date and time are displayed as
dd-mm-yyyy and hh:mm AM/PM
with the first value, dd, active
(flashing).
Adjust each value with the Select
control. As each value is set, the
next value becomes active and
flashes.
www.argonaudio.com
iNet2+
21
3.1.3 Network
iNet2+ is compatible with all common network protocols and encryption methods, including Wi-Fi Protected
Setup (WPS).
To connect iNet2+ to your network, you need a Wi-Fi wireless router, together with password key if set
Select WLAN region/country > Wi-Fi network
(SSID), and then select a network from the list.
If the network is open (non-encrypted), iNet2+ connects
without any further ado; see Completion below.
www.argonaudio.com
iNet2+
22
Standard encrypted network
To enter the network’s key (password), use the Select
control to move the cursor through the characters and
select.
As each character is selected, the key is built up near the
top
of the display.
There are three options accessible by turning Select
back before the first characters (0123…)
– Backspace, OK and Cancel.
WPS encrypted network
WPS encrypted networks are identified by ‘[WPS]’ at the
start of the network name, and have three methods of
connection. Select one and follow the prompts:
www.argonaudio.com
iNet2+
23
• Push Button >
iNet2+ prompts you to press the connect button
on the router. It then scans for a ready Push Button
Connect network and connects.
• Pin > (code number)
iNet2+ generates an 8-digit code number which
you enter into the wireless router, access point, or
an external registrar (e.g. advanced versions
of Windows Vista).
• Skip WPS >
Enter key as for a standard encrypted network, above.
For more information on setting up a WPS encrypted network, see your WPS router’s instructions.
www.argonaudio.com
iNet2+
24
Completion
iNet2+ tries to connect to the selected network.
If connecting fails, iNet2+ returns to a previous
screen to try again.
www.argonaudio.com
iNet2+
25
If the network connection is lost, iNet2+ automatically tries to reconnect.
www.argonaudio.com
iNet2+
26
3.2 Other settings
Settings for connecting to premium services such as Last.fm and Pandora are covered in the
sections for those modes. Common settings are covered below.
Notice Last.FM and Pandora are only available in the US.
3.2.1 Equalizer
Several preset EQ modes are
available; also a user-defined
setting.
To adjust the EQ, select Menu >
System settings > Equaliser.
You can then choose from a
variety of preset modes or create
your own, with custom bass, treble
and loudness settings.

3.2.2 Network
iNet2+ remembers the last four wireless networks it has connected to, and automatically tries to
connect to whichever one of them it can find.
You can see the list of registered networks through Menu > System settings > Network >
Network profile >. From here you can delete unwanted networks by turning and pressing Select
then confirming delete Yes.
There are also other options for viewing and manually altering network settings from Menu >
System settings > Network > (for example setting up a wired network). Users experienced with
networking may find these options useful for diagnosing and fixing network problems.

3.3 Internet radio portal registration
Argon iNet2+ uses the Frontier Silicon Internet radio portal website that allows you to organise
your favourite’s lists and also listen to Internet radio on a computer.
www.argonaudio.com
iNet2+
30
To register your iNet2+ with the portal, switch to
Internet radio mode as described in Section 4, and
then obtain your radio’s unique portal access code
by selecting Menu > Station list > Help >
Get access code >.
Write down the access code.
Note: Do not confuse the portal access code with the Radio ID (from Menu > System settings > Info.)
Visit the portal website at www.wifiradio-frontier.com.
If this is your first visit to the portal, register for a new account, entering the following information:
• access code,
• your e-mail address,
• password,
• radio model (Argon iNet2+).
If you already have an account and wish to add an additional radio, log in to your account and
select My preferences > Add another Wi-Fi radio.
Once your radio is registered with the portal, you can immediately use the Internet radio
favourites and added stations features.
www.argonaudio.com
iNet2+
31
3.4 Setting up a music server
In order for iNet2+ to play music files from a computer, the computer must be set up to share files
or media.
UPnP media sharing allows devices like iNet2+ to play music from a shared media library,
navigating through tag menus such as Artist, Album or Genre. If you are running a suitable server
system such as a PC with Windows Media Player 10 or later (WMP), and your music library is
well-tagged, then it is recommended to use media sharing. Only the UPnP server needs to be set
up.
3.5 Sharing media with Windows Media Player
Notice: iTunes does not currently work as a UPnP media server, but there are add-ons available
to work with an iTunes library.
The most common UPnP server is Windows Media Player (10 or later). Alternatively, other UPnP
platforms and servers may be used. To set up WMP for media sharing, perform the following
steps:
1. Ensure that the PC is connected to the network.
2. Ensure that the radio is powered on and connected to the same network.
3. In WMP, add to the media library the audio files and folders you want to share with
iNet2+ (Library > Add to Library…).
4. In WMP, enable media sharing (Library > Media sharing…).
Notice: setup can differ depending on which version of WMP you have
www.argonaudio.com
iNet2+
32
Notice; it may show; Argon iNet2+, “Unknown device”, “Frontier Silicon” or the Jupiter logo as shown below.
Make sure that the radio has access to the shared media by selecting it and clicking Allow. You can
also set a name for the shared media in Settings… Click OK to close the dialogue boxes.
The PC is now ready to stream the music to the radio. The WMP UPnP service runs in the background;
there is no need to start WMP explicitly.
www.argonaudio.com
iNet2+
33
3.6 Setting up iNet2+ for “Play To” Windows 7 streaming media feature.
To set-up Argon iNet2+ to be controlled and to stream music via Windows Media Player 12 (Windows 7 only),
perform the following steps:
1. Ensure that the PC is connected to the network.
2. Ensure that iNet2+ is powered on and connected to the same network.
Note: iNet2+ must be in an Internet radio mode to be detected.
3. From the Windows 7 main screen,
select Start > Devices and Printers.
4. Select the Add a device tab in the top left of the Devices
and Printers window and follow the instruction prompts given
by the wizard.
www.argonaudio.com
iNet2+
34
In the Devices and Printers window a icon *) will appear and you are now ready to stream your
Windows media music files to iNet2+.

on “device webpage”
www.argonaudio.com
iNet2+
35
4. Internet radio mode
iNet2+ can play thousands of radio stations and
podcasts from around the world though a broadband
Internet connection.
When you select Internet radio mode, iNet2+ contacts
the Frontier Silicon Internet radio portal to get a list of
stations, organised into different categories like Country,
Most popular and Genre. Once you select a station, INet2+
connects directly to that station.
The portal also enables multiple lists of favourite stations that you can personalise, for example Andy’s
stations, Jo’s favourites, Talkshows. To use the favourites feature, register your radio with the portal website
as described on page 29. If you have several Frontier Silicon radios, you can register them all on the same
account so that each radio has access to your favourite’s lists. It is possible to add favourites either directly
through iNet2+ or through any computer with a web browser.
To enter Internet Radio mode, either press Mode until the display shows Internet Radio or select Menu >
Main menu > Internet Radio.
Note: The station list menu is provided from the Internet radio portal, so it is only accessible when iNet2+ is
connected to the Internet. Station lists and submenus may change from time to time.
www.argonaudio.com
iNet2+
36
There are several ways of selecting stations.
Directly from the radio:
• Last listened
• Presets
From the portal through the Menu > Station list
> menu:
• Favourites lists
• Browse by Country, Genre, Most
popular, Newest
• Search by keyword
• My added stations
If you are already listening to an Internet radio station, you can press Back rather than Menu to
quickly return to the last visited branch of the menu tree. For example, suppose you were listening to
New Orleans Radio through the browse facility as described in section 4.4
below. Pressing Back

<computer name>: <Shared media name>, for example JB-Laptop: Audio. If you have more than
one computer sharing media, the alternatives are listed. Select the shared media you want to play.
From this point on, the menus are generated
from the shared media server (typically
Windows Media Player). The first menu shows
a list of media types, for example Music,
Video, Pictures and Playlists. iNet2+ can
only play music and playlists.
There is also a search function, which finds
tracks in a similar way to Internet radio
search, as described on page 390.

• Artist
• Album
• Composer
• Rating
Once you have found a track you want to play, press Select . A short press plays the track
immediately and a long press adds the track to the playlist. You can also add entire albums to the

5.1.1 Wake-on-LAN
If shared media is selected a list of available music servers will be displayed.
If a question mark appears before the server name, this indicates that the server has been seen
before and supports Wake-on-LAN functionality, but cannot currently be found on the network.
If a server with a question mark is selected by the user, the device will try to wake the server up
and connect to it. In some instances this may not be possible as the server may not be connected
to the network any more or may be switched off.
5.1.2 Prune servers
From time to time it may be necessary to remove servers displaying question marks in front of the
server name from the server list. For example, if the device is moved to a new network or if a
Wake-on-LAN server is removed from your current network.
To perform this function go to Menu > Prune servers > Yes

6. Using the “Play To” feature in Windows 7 to stream media
One of the new Windows 7 features includes a feature called “Play To” and this lets your PC running
Windows 7 control iNet2+ to push media and use as a universal remote control for your media collection.
iNet2+ supports the industry standard DLNA (Digital Living Network Alliance) 1.5 digital media renderer. This
allows you to "Play To" other devices around your home and combine media streaming with controlling a
connected media receiver while streaming content to it from another Windows 7 PC on a home network.
Before you can use the “Play To” feature you need the set-up iNet2+ for Windows 7 streaming media.
6.1 Use “Play To” in Windows Media Player
Windows Media Player makes it easy to manage your media, find items that you want to play, and open
Play To. To select items that you want to play, follow these steps:
1. Click the Start button, click All Programs, and then click Windows Media Player.
If the Player is currently open and you’re in Now Playing mode, click the Switch to Library
button in the upper-right corner of the Player.
2. If the list pane is closed or if the Burn or Sync tabs are exposed, click the Play tab.
3. Find the items that you want to play in the Player Library, and then drag those items from
the details pane into the list pane.
4. Click the Play to button at the top of the list pane, click the device on your network that will
receive the media.

stream, and to change to the next or previous item in the list.

6.2 Use “Play To” elsewhere in Windows 7
Outside of Windows Media Player, you can stream media to iNet2+ with “Play To” by right-clicking
music files. To select music files and stream them to iNet2+, follow these steps:
1. Click the files you want to stream to iNet2+.
2. Right-click the selected files, point to “Play to”, and then click the device on the network that
will receive the media.
3. In the Play To dialog box, use the playback controls to play, pause, or stop the media
stream, and to change to the next or previous item in the list.

see what stations are available. You may also need to
start a scan manually to update the list of stations for one
of the following reasons:
• Available stations change from
time to time.
• If reception was not good for the
original scan (for example the
antenna was not up), this may
result in an empty or incomplete list of available stations.
• If you have poor reception of some stations (burbling), you may wish to list only
stations with good signal strength.

type, ensemble name/frequency, signal strength/error rate, bit rate/codec/channels and today’s date.
7.4 Settings
Dynamic range compression
Some DAB broadcasts offer dynamic range compression (DRC). This feature allows radios to compress the
dynamic range of the output audio stream, so that the volume of quiet sounds is increased, and the volume of
loud sounds is reduced. This can be useful if you are listening to music with a high dynamic range in a noisy
environment (for example, classical music while cooking).
To change the DRC of the iNet2+, select Menu > DRC, and then DRC high, DRC low or DRC off.
Note: The iNet2+’s DRC setting does have any effect if DRC data is not included in the broadcast.
Station order
You can choose the order of the DAB station list to be either Alphanumeric, Ensemble or Valid. Ensemble
lists groups of stations that are broadcast together on the same ensemble, for example BBC or South Wales
local. Valid lists valid stations first, alphanumerically, then off-air stations.
To change station order, select Menu > Station order > then Alphanumeric, Ensemble or Valid.

press Info , another set of information is displayed, cycling through RDS radio text,
RDS programme type, frequency and today’s date.
• If no RDS information is available, the currently tuned frequency is shown.

(hiss) from weak stations. To change the scan settings to stop only at stations with good signal
strength, select Menu > Scan setting > Strong stations only? > Yes.

13. Software upgrades and factory reset
13.1 Software upgrade
From time to time, Argon may make software upgrades available with bug fixes and/or additional
features. You can either check manually, or set iNet2+ to check periodically automatically (this is
the default). If iNet2+ detects that newer software is available, it asks if you want to go ahead with
an update. If you agree, the new software is then downloaded and installed. After a software
upgrade, all user settings are maintained.
CAUTION:
Before starting a software upgrade, ensure that iNet2+ is plugged
into a stable mains power connection. Disconnecting power
during a software update may permanently damage the unit.
To turn automatic checking on or off, select Menu > System settings > Software update >
Auto-check setting.
13.2 Factory reset
A factory reset resets all user settings to default values, so time/date, network configuration and
presets are lost. However, the radio’s current software version is maintained, as is registration
with the Internet radio portal. Internet radio favourites therefore remain unless you re-register your
radio with another account on the portal website.
To perform a factory reset, select Menu > System settings > Factory reset Proceed > Yes.
