Network connection

This player can be connected to a local area network (LAN) via the
Ethernet port on the rear panel.

After making the physical connection the player needs to be set up
for network communication. This is done from the Initial Setup
menu — see Setting up for network use on page 21 for detailed
instructions.

For best performance, we recommend using a 100BASE-TX
compatible PC and Ethernet hub.

Connecting via an Ethernet hub

If you already operate one or more PCs on a local area network, you
can integrate this player by connecting it to the Ethernet hub using
the included LAN cable.

In the example configuration below, this player would be able to
access content from either of the PCs.

Connecting directly to a PC

If you only need to use one PC to act as a media server, you can
connect this player directly to the PC using the included LAN cable.

Controlling this player via another Pioneer
component

The

CONTROL IN jack allows you to control this player via the

remote control sensor of another Pioneer component — typically an
AV receiver — that has a

CONTROL OUT jack. Remote control

signals are passed through to the player from the remote sensor of
the other component, allowing you greater freedom in the
placement of your player.

Use a miniplug cord (not supplied) to connect the CONTROL

IN jack of this player with the CONTROL OUT jack of your other
Pioneer component.

• You will also need to connect a coaxial digital cable, analog

audio cable, or video cable.

• When connected via System Control, point the remote control

toward the connected component (such as an AV receiver). The
remote will not work correctly when pointed at this unit.

• You cannot connect use System Control with components that

do not have a System Control jack or with components
manufactured by companies other than Pioneer.
