Duet
Network Music System
Thank you!
Thank you for purchasing a Logitech® Squeezebox™ Duet network music system. We hope you have as much fun using Squeezebox Duet as we did creating it for you.
The Squeezebox Duet includes a multi-room controller and one receiver, allowing you to listen to the music you love in one room. You can add additional Squeezebox family players to other rooms in your home so you can listen to different music in each room or synchronize players to hear the same music in every room.
This quick start guide helps you install the Squeezebox Duet in a home that includes an 802.11 (Wi-Fi) network and a computer system where your music is stored. If you have a different setup (e.g., a wired Ethernet network with no Wi-Fi access point or your music is stored on a NAS drive), you can find detailed installation instructions for other configurations in the
Squeezebox Duet User Guide. An electronic version of this Guide is included when you install SqueezeCenter. You may also download it from www.logitech.com/support :

If your network is secured, you will need to enter the security key when you set up the controller. It is important that you know the type of network security your access point uses, and that you have the security key ready before you start. More information on Wi-Fi networking can be found in the
Squeezebox Duet User Guide. If you are not sure about your network security setup, contact your ISP or the company that installed your Wi-Fi router.

SqueezeNetwork is a free, Internet-based service provided by Logitech. It allows you to connect to a wide variety of services, including Internet radio guides and music services, like Rhapsody or Pandora Radio.

and using the sign-up wizard. If you already have an account, simply log on.
Download and install SqueezeCenter™
SqueezeCenter is the application you run on a computer connected to your local network to deliver your music collection to the Squeezebox players in your home.
After you complete the sign-up process at www.squeezenetwork.com
, you are asked to download SqueezeCenter. Select the correct version for your computer’s operating system (e.g., Windows, Macintosh OS X, or
Linux), and download the software, saving it to a location you can find easily, like your desktop.

Connect the receiver
1 . Fit the adapter onto the AC adapter plug of the receiver, making sure the adapter snaps into place.
2 . Plug the AC adapter into an electrical outlet, and then insert the barrel plug into the receiver. The LED on the front of the receiver should blink red, indicating that the receiver is powered up, but is not yet programmed for your network.
3 . Connect your stereo or powered speakers to the receiver, using the supplied color-coded, gold-plated RCA cables, which can be used with nearly any stereo or powered speaker system. You can also connect the receiver to a DAC via the SP/DIF connector, using your own optical or coaxial cable.

Connect the controller and set up the receiver
1 . Remove the controller from the charging station.
2 . Follow the on-screen instructions shown on the controller’s LCD.
These instructions tell you how to connect the controller to your computer network, using the network name
(SSID) and security key you recorded in step 2.
3 . Once the controller is connected to your network, it will automatically look for the receiver so you can set up the receiver. You should see the screen shown here.
The number on the controller’s LCD screen is the last six numbers of the MAC address. You may confirm this number by looking at the label on the bottom of the receiver where the MAC address is printed.
1 . Press the Center button on the controller. After a few moments, the LED on the receiver should change colors. (These colors indicate different steps in the configuration and connection process. A complete list of the colors can be found in the Squeezebox Duet
User Guide.)
2 . On the controller’s LCD, you are asked to select a music source. Unless you have multiple instances of
SqueezeCenter running on your network, you should see just one local music source listed, along with
SqueezeNetwork.
3. Scroll to your listed music source using the controller's
Scroll Wheel, and press the Center button to select your music source. The LED on the receiver should change to white.
Tip : If you do not see a local music source and you are sure SqueezeCenter is installed and running, you may have a firewall that is blocking access. For assistance, refer to the Troubleshooting section in the
Squeezebox Duet User Guide or go on-line at www.logitech.com/support.
