This equipment must not be co-located or operating in  
conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.  
WARNING  
To reduce the risk of fire or shock hazard, do not  
expose the TV to rain or moisture.  
FCC Radiation Exposure Statement:  
The available scientific evidence does not show that any  
health problems are associated with using low power  
wireless devices. There is no proof, however, that these  
low power wireless devices are absolutely safe. Low  
power Wireless devices emit low levels of radio  
frequency (RF) energy in the microwave range while  
being used. Whereas high levels of RF can produce health  
effects (by heating tissue), exposure to low level RF that  
does not produce heating effects causes no known adverse  
health effects. Many studies of low level RF exposures  
have not found any biological effects. Some studies have  
suggested that some biological effects might occur, but  
such findings have not been confirmed by additional  
research. The LocationFreeTV has been tested and found  
to comply with the Federal Communications Commission  
(FCC) guidelines on RF energy exposures. The maximum  
SAR levels tested for the LF-X1 has been show to be 0.87  
W/kg at Body. LF-X5 has been show to be 1.25 W/kg at  
Body.  
This symbol is intended to alert the user to  
the presence of uninsulated “dangerous  
voltage” within the product’s enclosure  
that may be of sufficient magnitude to  
constitute a risk of electric shock to  
persons.  
* This transmitter must not be co-located or operating in  
conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.  
* When using the unit with 802.11a (5GHz), use in doors.  
This symbol is intended to alert the user to  
the presence of important operating and  
maintenance (servicing) instructions in the  
literature accompanying the appliance.

What is a LocationFreeTV?  
What is a  
LocationFreeTV?  
TM  
The LocationFreeTV is an LCD television system that embodies the LocationFree concept—the  
ability to enjoy TV, videos, DVDs, Internet browsing, mail, and digital photos wherever you happen to  
be. Whether you use it at home through a wireless or wired LAN connection, or away from home with  
the NetAV function, the LocationFreeTV allows you to enjoy video images and other media from a  
variety of locations.  
At home, when you set up the base station in a central room, you are free to roam anywhere within its  
wireless transmission range carrying only the monitor.  
Away from home, you can access your TV, videos, and DVDs by using the system’s NetAV function to  
connect to your base station through the Internet. You can enjoy browsing the Internet, composing and  
reading mail, and viewing your digital albums.  
You can also register other monitors to a base station. This allows you to use NetAV from the other  
registered monitors.  
z Tips  
Note  
The LocationFreeTV transmits on the 2.4 GHz and 5  
GHz* wireless channels. In the average home, this  
gives it a coverage range of about 100 feet (30 meters).  
If other devices in the vicinity emit electrical waves,  
such as a wireless LAN device or microwave oven, the  
strength of the wireless signal may decrease. The  
materials used in the construction of a building’s walls  
and floors may also affect the signal strength.  
* At time of purchase, the LocationFreeTV is set to  
the 2.4 GHz wireless channel.  
• The LocationFreeTV is composed of a monitor and  
a base station that communicate with each other over  
a wireless connection. The monitor must be within  
about 100 feet (30 meters)* of the base station in  
order to send and receive transmissions clearly.  
* Signal strength will differ based on operating  
environment.  
• When the monitor is in communication with the base  
station, the upper of the screen displays the  
indicator. (Only when using in Home-Wireless  
LAN.)  
• The monitor operates on a rechargeable battery.  
Recharge the battery using the AC power adapter  
(supplied). (For the LF-X1, the monitor can be  
recharged while in use, but not for the LF-X5.)  
• When the power is turned on, the base station  
continuously emits a wireless signal.

direct you to use a web browser (Internet  
Explorer or Netscape Navigator) to access the  
router’s settings screen, you can do so by  
inputting the router’s IP address in the address  
field on the Web window (1 page 74). You  
must also configure network settings for the  
LocationFreeTV (1 page 40).  
• For more information on configuring router  
settings, refer to the operating instructions for  
your router.

About Wireless  
Security  
Since communication via the wireless LAN  
function is established by radio waves, the  
wireless signal may be susceptible to  
interception. To decrease this danger, the  
LocationFreeTV supports various security  
functions. Be sure to correctly configure the  
security settings in accordance with your  
intended purpose and network environment.  
Notes  
• A plus (+) symbol appears on an access point  
under [Avail.] once it has been set.  
You can only connect to access points with a  
plus (+) symbol under [Avail.].  
Wireless LAN security function of the  
LocationFreeTV  
If you select from this list and still cannot  
connect, repeat steps 5 through 7.  
• There are public wireless access you can  
connect to with “No Encryption”, but the data  
you send and receive is unencrypted and may  
be intercepted. Be sure to take note of this  
when using the web and e-mail.  
• No encryption  
Because raw data is transmitted, there is a  
danger of interception.  
This setting is not available for wireless LAN  
communication between the base station and  
the monitor.  
• WEP  
WEP is the wireless LAN security technology  
specified by IEEE802.11. It applies encryption  
to communications. There are two types of  
encryption key length; 64-bit key and 128-bit  
key. The 128-bit encryption key assures a  
higher security level. A decryption technique  
exists, however, so using the same encryption  
key for an extended period of time is not  
recommended.  
• WPA-PSK with TKIP encryption  
WPA is a security technology developed to  
correct for the deficiencies of WEP. The  
LocationFreeTV utilizes WPA together with  
TKIP encryption. WPA-PSK with TKIP  
encryption assures the highest security level  
among the technologies supported by the  
LocationFreeTV.  
Security settings of the LocationFreeTV  
• The security for wireless LAN communication  
between the base station and the monitor is set  
to WEP as the factory default. To increase the  
security level, switch to WPA-PSK. Note,  
however, that the communication stability may  
differ depending on which technology you use,  
WEP or WPA-PSK.

What’s NetAV  
ADVANCE: Making Use of NetAV  
This section describes how to set up the NetAV  
server on the base station and the NetAV client on  
the monitor.  
Connecting to the Internet using the  
NetAV function  
Configuring the monitor settings allows you to  
connect to the Internet using the NetAV function  
from a wireless or wired LAN away from home.  
NetAV settings must be configured when  
connecting by either Wireless or Wired LAN. In  
addition, when connecting wirelessly you must  
configure [Wireless Monitor Settings], and when  
connecting by Wired LAN you must configure  
[Wired Monitor Settings].  
What’s NetAV  
While you are away from home with your  
monitor, you can connect it to your base station  
via the Internet, enjoy TV, and control the VCR or  
the DVD player in your home. This is the  
“NetAV” function.  
Notes  
• When using NetAV, the base station power must be  
By connecting it to a public wireless access, you  
can enjoy NetAV at a cafe via the Internet. You  
can also enjoy NetAV at a hotel by connecting it  
to the Internet via wired LAN.  
turned on.  
You must set up NetAV in advance while you are at  
home and the monitor has a wireless connection to  
the base station (Home-Wireless mode). If you  
cannot connect to the base station in Home-Wireless  
mode while away from home, you cannot change the  
base station settings.  
Notes  
• To use NetAV, you must perform the following  
settings beforehand on the base station, router, and  
other peripheral devices. Without configuring the  
necessary settings, you will not be able to use the  
NetAV function when you take the monitor away  
from home.  
You cannot use NetAV when connected to the  
Internet via an analog phone line that uses a dial-up  
router.  
z Tips  
• NetAV transmits video via the Internet. Currently,  
we recommend the network throughput higher than  
300 kbps (both uploading and downloading). If the  
connection speed is too slow, the picture and sound  
may cut out or be affected by noise, etc.  
• Because the monitor does not have a PPPoE  
function, you may need to configure the router  
settings when using the monitor at a location other  
than your home.  
• If a firewall is set, you cannot use NetAV.  
Line types not supported by NetAV  
• Analog phone line using a dial-up router  
• Cellular phones  
Some other line types may not allow you to  
connect with NetAV because of restrictions  
imposed by Internet Service Providers (ISPs) or  
the connection devices in use.

Notes on using NetAV with  
additional monitors  
Connecting with  
Refer to the illustration in “Registering Other  
Monitors” (1 page 57).  
• Only one monitor can enjoy video with the base  
station at once. In the case when the two  
monitors B and C are registered to the base  
station A, monitor B or C cannot establish a  
NetAV session with the base station A while  
the monitor A is receiving video from base  
station A.  
• If you have configured the base station A to  
enable [Allow AV interception by registered  
monitors] in the [Register other monitors]  
setting, monitor B or C can start NetAV while  
the monitor A is receiving video from the base  
station A.  
This chapter describes how to start NetAV and  
some functions for NetAV. Follow the procedure  
on page 49 to 51 to use NetAV in the “On the go-  
Wireless mode”.  
Note  
You cannot use NetAV while away from home if the  
base station in your home is turned off. Make sure to  
turn on the base station.  
When Connecting via Wired LAN  
Using a LAN cable, connect the LAN port on the  
monitor to the Ethernet jack at the place you are  
visiting.  
• When your monitor A cannot receive video  
because monitor B or C is in a NetAV session  
with the base station A, you can see the  
For the LF-X1  
indicator  
at the top of the screen. If you  
press [GetAV] button in such a case, the NetAV  
session between monitor B or C and the base  
station A will be disconnected and your  
monitor A can receive video from the base  
station A.

What Is Wireless LAN?  
z Tip  
The LocationFreeTV uses the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz  
channels. If you select [Automatic: 2.4 GHz only] or  
[Automatic: 5 GHz only], the base station  
automatically selects the optimum wireless signal for  
the specified band.  
A wireless LAN is a network (LAN) over which  
data is sent and received via wireless  
transmission. A wireless access point forms the  
center of a wireless network. You can use the base  
station to construct a wireless network for  
computers equipped with an integrated wireless  
LAN function or a wireless LAN card.  
Here are two examples of what you can do with a  
wireless network:  
Using another wireless device  
nearby  
If you are using two or more base stations within  
close range, or using your base station in range of  
a 2.4 GHz or 5 GHz wireless access point that  
conforms to IEEE 802.11a, b, or g standards, the  
wireless signal from the base station to the  
monitor may be disrupted. In this case, set your  
base station to [Automatic: 2.4 GHz only] or  
[Automatic: 5 GHz only] in the [Wireless  
Channel] window, and then set the wireless  
access point to a fixed channel. If images still do  
not display properly on the monitor, select  
[Manual] in the [Wireless Channel] window and  
manually change to a different channel than that  
set for the wireless access point.  
• Computers in various rooms of your home,  
such as a living room and a child’s room, can  
connect to the Internet wirelessly via the base  
station.  
Computer  
Base  
station  
Monitor  
Note  
The term “wireless access point” above does not refer  
to the wireless transmission function of the base  
station, but to a separate wireless transmission device.  
z Tips  
• The wireless LAN described here is composed of the  
base station and a computer equipped with an  
integrated wireless LAN function or a wireless LAN  
card. If you are not going to construct a wireless  
network, you do not need to make the wireless LAN  
settings described in the following section.  
• When using the base station as a wireless access  
point for a computer, the computer must be equipped  
with an integrated wireless LAN function or  
wireless LAN card that conforms to IEEE 802.11a,  
b, or g standards.  
Stopping radio wave emission from  
the monitor  
When using the monitor in a place where radio  
wave emissions are prohibited, switch the  
monitor settings to wired LAN.  
Note  
The base station always emits radio waves when its  
power is on.

Using the Base Station as a Wireless Access Point  
• The base station can still function as the wireless  
access point for other computers, even if you are  
using the monitor in wired LAN mode (i.e., no  
wireless connection to the base station).

z Tip  
Distance from the base station, ambient radio wave  
conditions, obstacles, and other factors can affect the  
stability of a wireless network connection. When  
setting up your computer, place it as close as possible  
to the base station.  
z Tips  
• For details on character entry, see “Entering  
Characters” (1 page 116).  
• Do not forget the SSID and the encryption key  
that you entered. You need to enter them when  
connecting your computer to the wireless  
LAN.

Mail  
Problem  
Causes and remedies  
Cannot send or receive mail.  
Your mail settings may be incorrect. Check them against the  
information you have received from your ISP.  
• When sending the mail to multiple addresses, separate each address  
with a comma (,).  
• When sending mail to a large number of addresses, separate the  
recipients into smaller groups, and send the mail separately to each  
group of recipients.  
Your network settings may be incorrect. Contact your ISP.  
Cannot recall the mail protection  
password.  
Once the mail protection password has been set, you must input that  
password in order to change or delete it. If you have lost your mail  
protection password, initialize the mail settings (1 page 136).  
While attaching an image to an e-mail,  
the [Picture List] window does not show  
the expected image.

• The LocationFreeTV cannot display this type of image file. Even if the  
image file is acceptable, it may not display properly if the file size is too  
large.  
• The image has been corrupted.  
Saved image cannot be displayed.  
• Make sure you have selected the correct location where the image is  
saved. Try switching tabs.  
• For images copied from a computer to a “Memory Stick” (LF-X1) or a  
CompactFlash card (LF-X5) check if you have saved them in the  
appropriate folder (1 page 112).  
Saved images do not appear in the top  
left of the [Picture List] window.  
Check the date and time settings (1 page 128).  
Cannot get the slide show to work.  
You may have only placed a check by one image. Clear the check, or  
place a check mark by two or more images.  
The message “Cancelled by memory  
storage.” appears.  
• If you have opened multiple tabs on the web screen, close some tabs.  
• Turn the monitor off and then on again.

seen.  
If you select [Brighter] or [Darker] repeatedly, the original picture may  
disappear. Select [Restart] or [Return to hold].  
Public Wireless Access  
Problem  
Causes and remedies  
Cannot connect.  
• When connecting to a network for the first time, you must configure it.

• Before using NetAV, the monitor, the base station, and connected  
routers must be properly configured.  
• Make sure the domain name has been correctly entered in the [Enable/  
Disable NetAV] window “Making the base station accessible by  
NetAV” (1 page 56).  
• It may take time to renew the Dynamic DNS address code. Wait for at  
least 10 minutes and retry connecting.  
• It may take time to obtain an IP address when the LAN connection  
under [Monitor] is set to obtain one automatically (DHCP). Also,  
settings do not become effective unless you select [Set].  
• If the NetAV LED on the base station is lit red, the [Dynamic DNS]  
setting on the [NetAV Settings] window authentication has failed.  
Check that the setting is configured properly. When the “NetAV”  
indicator on the base station is lit red, the settings for [Dynamic DNS]  
are not correct. For more information, refer to the LocationFreeTV  
FAQ (http://www.sony.com/locationfree/faq/).  
• If you are using a router, verify the router’s port forwarding settings.  
• Turn the router off and then on again.  
Picture is distorted.  
• Because NetAV communicates through the Internet, when there is

Registered monitors  
Problem  
Causes and remedies  
Cannot connect to a network or use  
NetAV.  
• Is the password set under [NetAV Settings]-[Registration for Binding]  
correct?  
• Are the “Alias” and “Serial number” that appear under [Register Other  
Monitors]-[Registered monitors] for the registered base station correct?  
• Have the IP address and domain name of the registered base station  
been input correctly under [NetAV Settings]-[NetAV Connection] on  
the registered other monitor?  
Can connect to a network, but cannot  
use NetAV.  
Have you completed registration for binding? If not, see page 57-60 to  
perform registration.  
A. On the registered base station  
• [Enable/Disable NetAV] is not set to “Enable” on the registered base  
station.  
• If the check box by “Allow AV interception by registered monitors”  
under [Register Other Monitors]-[Registered monitors] is not  
selected, you may not be able to connect to the NetAV server because  
another monitor is connected with NetAV or is receiving AV content.  
• Settings have not been configured correctly. Refer to page 57-60 and  
reconfigure the settings.  
• The power is turned off.  
• The base station may not be able to connect to the Internet.  
B. On the registered monitor  
• Another registered monitor may be using NetAV already. Press the  
[Get AV] button on the bar at the bottom of the screen to begin  
viewing content.  
• The settings for NetAV have not been configured correctly. (Refer to  
the “Causes and remedies” for “Connection will not be established  
even though [NetAV] is pressed”.)  
• Settings have not been configured correctly. Refer to page 57-60 and  
reconfigure the settings.  
• There is a problem with some other network setting.  
C. Other  
• Another monitor may be viewing content with NetAV.  
• There is a problem with the line. (Not enough bandwidth, etc.)  
Others  
Problem  
Causes and remedies  
TV and video pictures are distorted  
when the base station is used as a  
wireless LAN access point.  
When a computer receives or sends data through wireless LAN while you  
are watching TV or video on the monitor, pictures on the monitor or audio  
may be distorted.  
It takes awhile for the picture to appear. Transmission may take time due to a high level of traffic on the lines  
connecting the monitor and base station, or due to the location of the base  
station and monitor.  
• For questions about Internet connections, contact your Internet Service Provider (ISP).
