Integration of MCW770 into an existing (home) network  
You can also install the MC W770 in any other, perhaps existing network, which is compliant to  
the Wi-Fi or IEEE802.11b,g rules. Please use this kind of installation only if you are  
experienced in handling wireless networks and experienced in setting up these  
networks! In general there are 2 types of network modes: ad-hoc mode (used for direct  
connections to PC’s) and infrastructure mode (used when you have accesspoint(s) in your  
network). Both modes are supported.  
Before starting this installation process:  
– There should be a PC in the network having the dedicated Philips Media Manager Software  
installed.Therefore install the Philips Media Manager software from the installation CD only.  
– The wireless USB adapter has to be already installed and connected on the PC you use for  
installation.

wireless settings for  
your network like  
SSID and WEP keys  
available.

Change of USB port using the MCW770  
The installation of the MC W770 is optimised for the USB port used during installation.  
Therefore the supplied wireless USB adapter should be connected only to this specific USB  
port.  
Changing the USB port can have the following disadvantages (Windows XP, 2000 and newer):  
– Connecting MC W770 to your PC can require up to 2 minutes  
– In some cases a new installation of wireless USB adapter driver can be necessary  
If you nevertheless want to change the USB port (e.g. because you are using a USB hub),  
proceed as described below.  
1 Connect the wireless USB adapter to the new USB port.  
Windows will recognise it and will load the appropriate drivers.Windows may display a  
warning that the driver is not approved by Microsoft (message differs with Windows  
version). Ignore the message and continue with the installation.

Using a different wireless network adapter  
The following steps describe how you can use a wireless network adapter different to the one  
bypacked with the MC W770 to set up the MC W770 with that adapter.Your network adapter  
should be installed already, connected to the PC and ready for wireless function. Nevertheless  
please note that a proper function cannot be guaranteed by using a different network adapter.

AD-HOC mode  
Use the utility of your network adapter to set up these settings.  
Note: Before setting up your network adapter to the MC W770 installation network, you might write  
down the current network settings used by your adapter, which you will probably want to use for  
MC W770 as network settings in normal operation.

20Please do not forget that for successful operation the Philips Media Manager Software has to be  
set up too and operate on a PC which is part of the network you have just set up.  
If more than one network configuration is stored into the MC W770, you might select the one  
which has just been set up (see How to select another network in chapter “PC link  
function”). Otherwise (one network configuration stored into the MC W770) the audio set will  
connect to network/PC and your PC link is fully operational.

General information  
Environmental information  
All redundant packing material has been  
omitted.We have done our utmost to  
make the packaging easily separable into  
three mono materials: cardboard (box),  
polystyrene foam (buffer) and polyethylene  
(bags, protective foam sheet).  
Disc handling  
To take a disc out of  
its box easily, press the  
centre spindle while lifting  
it.After use, always take  
the disc out of the unit  
and store it in the disc case.  
Your unit consists of materials which can be  
recycled if disassembled by a specialised  
company. Please observe the local  
regulations regarding the disposal of packing  
materials, exhausted batteries and old  
equipment.  
Never attach a sticker to a disc. If you want  
to provide a disc with an inscription use a  
soft felt-tipped pen and write only on the  
printed side.  
To clean a disc, wipe it  
in a straight line from the  
centre towards the edge  
using a soft, lint-free cloth.  
Any cleaning agents may  
damage the disc!  
Maintenance  
Clean the unit with a  
soft, slightly dampened,  
lint-free cloth. Do not  
use any cleaning agents  
as they may have a  
corrosive effect.  
Setup  
Place the unit on a flat, hard and stable  
surface.  
Do not expose the unit,  
batteries or discs to  
humidity, rain, sand or  
excessive heat (caused by  
heating equipment or  
direct sunlight).  
Do not position the unit on top of other  
equipment that might heat it up (e.g.  
receiver or amplifier).  
Place the apparatus in a  
10 cm  
4 inches  
10 cm  
location with adequate  
ventilation to prevent  
internal heat build up.  
Allow at least 10 cm  
(4 inches) clearance  
from the rear and the  
4 inches  
Always keep the trays of  
your unit closed to protect the lens from  
dust. If the unit fails to read discs correctly  
use a commonly available cleaning-CD to  
clean the lens before submitting the unit to  
repair. Other cleaning methods may destroy  
the lens.  
5 cm  
2 inches  
5 cm  
2 inches  
top of the unit and 5 cm (2 inches)  
from each side.  
The apparatus shall not be exposed to  
dripping or splashing.  
The lens may cloud over when the unit is  
moved from cold to warm surroundings.  
Playing a disc is not possible then. Leave the  
unit in a warm environment until the  
moisture evaporates.  
Do not place any sources of danger on the  
apparatus (e.g. liquid filled objects, lighted  
candles).  
Do not block any ventilation openings.

I have followed the instructions for  
use and the instructions shown on  
the installation software exactly  
but cannot successfully install.  
Possibly you have a problem with the  
quality of the wireless link.We propose using  
the extension cable which is delivered with  
the MC W770 Philips audio system and  
placing the wireless USB adapter as close as  
possible to the front side of the MC W770.  
Start the installation again.  
Since I have changed the USB port  
for the wireless USB adapter I  
have longer connection times from  
my MCW770 audio system to the  
PC.  
Your installation was optimised for the  
first USB port used. In order to decrease  
connection time for the new USB port,  
you have to configure the new USB port  
for your PC link network. Select from the  
CD-ROM setup the Network Utilities  
and then the Install different USB port  
menu. Follow the instructions of the setup  
programme. For more information please refer  
to the IFU chapter “Change of USB port using  
the MC W770”,

Frequently asked questions  
Connection problems and problems with link quality  
Question  
Answer  
I have successfully installed my  
MCW770, the wireless USB  
adapter and the software, and it  
worked nicely until recently. Now I  
have placed the MCW770 in a  
different room, and it is not able to  
connect anymore.The display  
shows NO CONNECTION.What can  
I do?  
Please check if your PC is still running and if the  
wireless USB adapter is installed correctly.  
The MC W770 PC link uses radio waves  
to link between the PC and audio device.  
The output power is limited by legal  
regulations, and therefore also the distance  
in which the PC link works is limited. Usually  
the PC link function works inside a typical  
single family house without problems. But the  
radio-waves are dampened especially by walls,  
ceilings and also by metal in your furniture.  
Some golden rules to improve your link  
quality:The PC and the MC W770 should not  
be placed more than one floor and two walls  
from each other. (This depends strongly on the  
wall material).The wireless USB adapter  
should be placed more than 20 cm (8 inches)  
away from metal plates, e.g. it should not be  
placed on top of your PC or your monitor,  
or even too close to them. Use the extension  
cable to get some distance from your PC.Try  
different positions for the wireless USB  
adapter, some centimetres (inches) can already  
help!Try the same with your MC W770.  
My PC Link has already worked  
nicely, but since recently this is  
no longer the case.  
It is possible that in your area or close  
neighbourhood a new network has been  
installed. Use the installation CD to switch  
to another channel.  
How can the transmission  
channel be changed?  
There is an easy way to change the network  
transmission channel, by using the Change  
transmission channel network utility  
from the installation CD-ROM. For more  
information please refer to the IFU chapter  
“Change of the wireless channel”,
