Making Music Selections
Browsing your music library
You can browse for songs in a number of different ways. Using the Controller, you can
make broad music selections like play all available music by a particular artist, or you can
make specific selections like play a single track by a particular artist on a specified album.
Selection choices include:
• Artist
• Album
• Composer
• Genre
• Tracks
• Imported Playlists
• Browse by Folder
Note: If a computer on your network is turned off or is in "standby" mode, the
music folders on that computer are unavailable to the Sonos Digital Music System
until the computer is turned back on.
The Music Queue
When you make music selections, they are added to a list of tracks called a music queue.
You can create a different music queue for each zone in your house, or you can create a
zone group and play the same music across multiple zones. A play indicator appears to
the left of the currently playing track. When the current track ends, the next track in the
queue starts to play, and play continues down through the list until the queue is
completed. When you add tracks to a queue, they are placed at the end of the queue.
Note: You can add tracks to the music queue while other tracks in the queue are
playing.

Adjusting Your Controller’s Settings
There are several settings you can change on your Sonos Controller to suit your
household preferences.
From the Music menu, select System Settings→Controller Settings and then use
the scroll wheel to highlight the setting you wish to change.
Click sound. Adjust this setting to turn the Controller’s scroll wheel “clicking” on or
off.
Sleep timer undocked. Use this setting to select the amount of time after which
your Controller enters light sleep mode when not connected to a power supply.
The screen will turn off until motion is detected or a button is pressed.
Sleep timer docked. Use this setting to select the amount of time after which your
Controller enters light sleep mode when plugged into the adapter. Because the
Controller is connected to a power supply during this time, you can set this sleep
timer significantly higher than the undocked sleep timer setting.
Motion sensor. Use this setting to turn the motion sensor on or off. The motion
sensor automatically wakes your Controller when motion is detected.
Chapter 5: Using Your Sonos Controller
5-25
Advanced settings. The Advanced Settings menu provides you with 3 additional
menu choices:
• Deep sleep timer. Use this setting to set the deep sleep timer (2, 4, 8, or 12
hours) for your Controller. Your Controller will go into deep sleep to preserve the
battery life when it is unused for this specified period of time. When your Controller wakes from deep sleep - either from the motion sensor or from a button
touch - it will go through a restart cycle which takes several seconds.
• Turn off Controller. Use this setting to put your Controller into deep sleep any
time it will not be in use for an extended period of time, or when you are transporting your Controller to another destination. This setting puts the Controller
into deep sleep mode immediately rather than waiting for the deep sleep timer
setting to be reached. The Controller cannot be turned off while it is connected to the AC adapter.
• Factory reset. Use this setting to return the Controller to its original factory settings. This will disconnect the Controller from your Sonos Digital Music System
entirely (you can add it again at any time.) This may be necessary if the Controller
gets associated to the wrong music system during setup, or if you wish to join
your Controller to another Sonos Digital Music System.

Connecting a Line-In Music Source
You can play music from an external line-in music source such as a CD player or
portable music player that is connected to your Sonos Digital Music System.
Note: You can listen to music from an external device in any zone, and use the
Sonos Digital Music System to control the volume settings. However, you must
control the playback (forward, pause, etc.) from the line-in source. If you have WMA
encoding selected, you will notice a slight delay before the music starts to play.

Getting Software Updates
Sonos periodically provides you with software updates to improve performance or to
add new features. Your music system must be registered in order to receive updates.
There are two preference options available:
• Do not automatically check for updates. From the Music menu, you should periodically select System Settings→Online Updates to check for software updates.
• Send a message when an update is available. (To change your preference setting, see "Auto check for software updates" on page 5-29.) The message, "Update Available" will appear on the System Settings menu next to Online
Updates to indicate there are new Sonos updates available.
1.
Touch OK to contact Sonos.
2.
If there is an update available, select Yes to begin the update process.
Your ZonePlayers and the Controller will be updated together as all Sonos components
must carry the same software version number. This process may take several minutes
per device, depending upon your network connection. Because this process can run
unattended, Sonos recommends you start the update when you will be away from
your Sonos Digital Music System for a period of time. If you have the Desktop
Controller software installed, you will have to update it the next time you start the
application.
Caution Do not disconnect power from your ZonePlayer(s), or in any way disable
your Sonos Digital Music System while this process is running. Contact Sonos
Customer Support if an error occurs.

Controller software updates
In the event that your Controller’s software version gets out of sync from the rest of
your Sonos Digital Music System components, you will see the following message
displayed on your Controller screen the next time you use it:
This Controller will be unavailable for use until you perform a software update to bring
the Controller up to date. This situation will occur if you perform a software update
from another Controller, or from the Desktop Controller software.
ZonePlayer(s) software updates
If a ZonePlayer’s software version gets out of sync from the rest of your Sonos Digital
Music System components, you will see the following message displayed on your
Zones menu:
One or more ZonePlayers may need to be updated if
you purchase a new ZonePlayer with a later software
version, or if you plug in a ZonePlayer that was not in
use when you performed your last software update.
You will also see this message if you have already
updated your music system using the Controller. This
message will indicate that the Desktop Controller
software needs to be updated.
Touch OK to begin the software update process.

Digital Music System. You can also use the Advanced Settings menu to register your
music system if you have not yet registered it.
System registration
During the setup process, you are asked to register your Sonos Digital Music System. If
you did not register at that time, you can register now. Registering your music system
allows you to receive technical support as well as software upgrades. At no time is
any of your information provided to other companies.

Line-in encoding
If you have line-in music sources attached to a ZonePlayer, line-in encoding determines
how the Sonos Digital Music System will encode the audio coming in from these
sources. WMA encoding is the high-quality system default. For the highest quality
sound you can select WAV uncompressed encoding (this selection requires more
network bandwidth than WMA compressed audio).
1.
From the Music menu select System Settings.
2.
Select Advanced Settings →Line-In Encoding.
3.
Use the scroll wheel to select WAV or WMA encoding, and touch OK. When WMA
is selected, you will notice a slight delay before the music starts to play.
Wireless channel
The Sonos Digital Music System selects the optimal radio frequency channel during
setup. However, if you have other wireless devices using this channel, you may want to
switch the Sonos Digital Music System to another channel to avoid conflicts, as
conflicts may cause audio drop-outs.
1.
From the Music menu select System Settings.
2.
Select Advanced Settings →Wireless Channel.
Use the scroll wheel to select a different wireless channel, and touch OK.
It may take several seconds for the switch to take effect. If you have music playing, a
short music dropout will occur during the wireless channel change.

Battery Charging
Your Controller can be recharged by plugging it into the AC adapter supplied with your
Controller. The battery charge indicator
on your Controller will show you when it is
time to recharge the Controller. If the battery charge gets very low, the battery status
indicator light will light red. Be sure to recharge using only the AC adapter supplied with
your Sonos Controller.
Caution Use only the supplied power adapter to charge the Controller’s battery.
Using another adapter will damage your Controller and void your product
warranty.
Battery Replacement
After several years (depending upon usage), the battery on your Controller may not
hold a charge as long as it once did. Because of the Controller’s splash-resistant design,
the battery on the Controller must be factory-replaced. Return it to the Sonos Service
Center where it will be promptly replaced and returned to you. Go to
http://support.sonos.com for instructions and battery replacement cost.
Caution Danger of explosion if battery is incorrectly replaced. Replace only with the
same or equivalent type. Return to Sonos or an authorized Sonos service center for
replacement.

• Your firewall may be blocking outgoing connections to
the Internet. Ensure the firewall allows access to the
Internet for the Ethernet MAC addresses of your Sonos
components.
• Your firewall may be configured so that Sonos
components cannot obtain an IP address. If so, your
ZonePlayers and Controllers will display an IP address
in the 169.254.xxx.yyy range even though there is a
router/DHCP server on the network.The DHCP server
built in to some routers may be configured to supply IP
addresses only to devices with specific permitted
Ethernet MAC addresses. If you have configured your
router in this way, you will need to grant permission to
the Ethernet MAC address of each Sonos component
(including the Controller) before setting up your
system. Go to http://faq.sonos.com/dhcp for more
information.

System Setup-Without Windows®
or Macintosh® OS X
If your operating system is not Windows XP, Windows 2000, or Macintosh OS X 10.2 or
later, you can use the Sonos Controller to configure your music system and set up
access to your music files. The Sonos Digital Music System will recognize many
standard shared folders on your computer. For additional information, visit our Web
site at http://faq.sonos.com/shares.
If you have digital music files stored on a computer or other device on your home
network such as network-attached storage (NAS), the computer directories or folders
that contain these music files must be shared so that the Sonos Digital Music System
can access them. Before you begin, enable file sharing on each computer that holds the
music files you want to access.
Note: If you have just purchased a new Sonos Controller CR100, you should charge
the battery. Connect your Sonos Controller to the power adapter using the adapter
cable (see the Controller Quick Setup Instructions.) You can use your Controller
while it is charging.
