What is the LocationFree

Base Station?

LocationFree

allows you to watch TV programs or recorded video from any room in your home, or

even away from home. You can stream video from a Base Station connected to a DVD recorder (or other
video device) to a device such as a computer or PSP

(PlayStation

Portable) via a wireless network or

the Internet.
You can also operate the video device (e.g., record/playback/stop) through on-screen remote control.

To make use of LocationFree

, you need a device called the LocationFree

Base Station. If you connect

video devices such as a DVD Recorder or a set-top box to the Base Station, it will be able to stream the

video content over the wireless network to LocationFree

client devices. With the Base Station placed

in a living room in your house, you can then enjoy video from anywhere in your home, on your computer

with the LocationFree

Player, or on other client devices which have the LocationFree

client feature.

You can also watch video while you are away from home, by connecting the LocationFree

Base Station

LF-V30 to the Internet via a router. You can make a connection over the Internet from your computer to

your LocationFree

Base Station LF-V30, via a hotspot (a public wireless access point, such as can be

found in cafes) or a 3G network. The Base Station LF-V30 will provide you with the video content from
video devices connected to the Base Station, wherever you are.

Finally, if you do not have a home wireless network, you can use the LocationFree

Base Station LF-

V30 as a wireless access point for your home, so you can connect your computer or other devices to a
home wireless network. If you have a home wireless network already, you can connect your Base Station
to your home wireless network.

You can stream the video content from video devices connected to the Base Station to LocationFree

client devices.

By using the Base Station LF-V30 as a wireless access point for your home, you can connect to the

Internet to browse or use e-mail from anywhere in your house.
