Placing Center and Station
Rear connections
With the detachable stands and by-packed wall
mounting kits, WACS700 Center and Station
allow you to place them in two ways: on
desktops with stands or on walls without
stands.
Warning:
Never make or change connections with
the mains supply switched on.
English
Installation
A Antenna Connection
Extend the wire antenna and fit it to
FM ANTENNA as shown below.
(on desktops with stands)
or
(on walls without stands)
See Appendix: How to mount your Center
and Station onto walls to learn more about
wall mounting
To improve FM reception, fit the plug of the wire
antenna, as shown, into the plug of the extension
line
IMPORTANT!
– Before you decide where and how to
place your Center and Station, try the
following rear connections and Wi-Fi
connection to find a suitable location.
– Keep your Center and Station away
from the source of interference
(microwave ovens, DECT phones,
bluetooth devices, cordless phones,
other Wi-Fi products, etc.)
– Avoid placing your Center or Station
close to the plasma TV. It may result in
improper display on your Center’s 2-way
remote control.
– Keep Stations adequately apart or in
different angles (e.g. in different rooms
blocked by one wall). Within a distance
and angle (e.g. in the same room), your
Center’s remote control is powerful
enough to simultaneously operate
several Stations, which may also result in
improper display on the 2-way remote
control.

Troubleshooting

WARNING
Under no circumstances should you try to repair the system yourself, as this will
invalidate the warranty. Do not open the system as there is a risk of electric shock.
If a fault occurs, first check the points listed below before taking the system for repair. If
you are unable to remedy a problem by following these hints, consult your dealer or
Philips for help.
Problem
Solution
Wi-Fi connection:
During the first-time setup, Station’s
display shows “Searching for Center”.
✔ Check you have placed the Center and Station
side by side on a flat and firm surface
✔ Check you have connected the Center to power
supply
✔ When adding a new station, check your center is
in Installation mode (See HD, Station
management)
I get interference on my wireless (WiFi)
link between center and station.
The WACS 700 operate in the 2.4GHz radio
frequency spectrum. Many other household/IT
devices also operate in the frequency spectrum,
for example: microwave ovens, Dect phones,
bluetooth devices like bluetooth headphones,
computer mouse, wireless routers, cordless
phones, WiFi compatible printers, PDAs.
These devices can interfere with the WiFi link
between Center and Station, resulting in such
interference as the pause during playback , the
set’s slow response to your operation. The
severity of interference varies depending on the
extent of radiation from the device and the
strength of Wi-Fi signals in the position.
✔
✔
✔
✔
✔
If you are playing the set, stop playback and take
the appropriate measures as follows:
Keep the Center or Station at least 3 meters
away from such devices.
Use the WEP key when connecting your
Center and Station to an existing wireless PC
network. Refer to the owner’s manual of your
router and Option 2 in Connect to your
PC.
Change the operating channel of your Center
and Station when connecting them to an existing
wireless PC network. To learn about how to
change channels, see the manual Connect to
your PC: Option 2.
If possible, change the operating channels of
the other Wi-Fi devices at your home.
Turn the devices in different directions to
minimize interference.
Remote control:
When I am using the Center’s 2-way
remote control, it starts to show
"connecting ....connecting" on the display
endlessly.
When you read this message on the 2-way
remote control, there could be the following
interference on your remote control:
1) interference signals from the Plasma TV screen
(if this device is turned on);
2) conflicting IR signals from a nearby WAS700
Station
✔ Check your plasma TV is turned off
✔ Check you have placed two IR operated devices
( Station) in separate rooms wherever possible.
