Introducing the TerraPlayer
Thanks and Welcome!
Thank you for purchasing your TerraPlayer, and welcome to the world of digital audio.
Your TerraPlayer will help pull your digital audio files from your PC and into your life –
and in full color.
The TerraPlayer User Guide is intended to help you get the most out of your
TerraPlayer. Here, you will find information on setting up the hardware, using the
TerraTouch OS on the touchscreen, and using the TerraPlayer Utility Suite on your PC.
Introducing the TerraPlayer
The TerraPlayer is a wireless, network-connected Digital Audio Jukebox™ with a fullcolor, graphic interface that provides easy access to your digital music collection. It frees
you to listen to digital audio anywhere in and around your home. A wireless link streams
audio files from your PC to your TerraPlayer located within a wide transmission range.

TerraPlayerBT-100
(Base Transceiver)
There are two components to the system: a TerraPlayer Radio and a Base Transceiver.
The TerraPlayer BT-100 (Base Transceiver) connects to either a PC (via USB
connection) or a group of PCs on a LAN (via an Ethernet connection). It transmits music
from the PC to a TerraPlayer Radio.
There are two versions of the TerraPlayer Radio. The TR-100 (Table Radio) has built-in
stereo speakers, amplifier, and an AM/FM radio for stand-alone use. The CR-100
(Component Radio) is for component stereo system to a PC.

Hardware and Connections on page 20 for more information.
The TerraTouch OS™
The touchscreen runs the TerraTouch
OS—an operating system which uses
album covers as icons to place The
World’s music at your fingertips™.

How it Works
The TerraPlayer system comes packaged with two units—a TerraPlayer Radio (TR-100
or CR-100) and a Base Transceiver (BT-100). The Base Transceiver, or Base, connects
to a single computer (via USB) or network of computers (via Ethernet). When powered
up, it checks all connected computers for available shared folders. If it finds digital audio
files in a shared folder, it stores the Music Information (ID3 tag, metadata), album cover,
and exact location (filepath) of each one. All of this information, but not the digital audio
files themselves, are stored in the Music Library on the Base Transceiver.

When a TerraPlayer Radio is powered up, it checks to see if it can communicate with the
Base. A TerraPlayer Radio and Base Transceiver must register/join to communicate with
each otehr. For packaged Base/Radio sets, this is done at the factory. This should be
done manually for TerraPlayer Radios purchased separately. You can also do this to reestablish the wireless link when it goes down.
) Refer to Register/Join the TerraPlayer Radio and Base Transceiver on page Error!

Once they connect, the TerraPlayer Radio asks the Base for a download of the Music
Library. The Music Library is copied to internal memory on the TerraPlayer, where it is
displayed on the Radio’s touchscreen display. The TerraPlayer Radio uses the album
cover as an icon representing the audio file(s). The information is presented in various
ways to make it easy to locate and select music by Genre, Artist, Album, or Song Title.

Radio
The actual audio files stay on your computer(s). The only time music moves from your
computer to the TerraPlayer is when the Base Transceiver transmits audio files from the
computer to the Radio during playback.
In order for the TerraPlayer to work, the computer(s) must be on.
That way, the Base Transceiver can find the digital audio files on the
hard drive in order to transmit them to the TerraPlayer Radio.

DRAFT
The TerraPlayer and the Internet
It is highly recommended that you have an Internet connection available to the Base
Transceiver—either through the computer to which it is connected, or over the network.
Several programs in the TerraPlayer Utility Suite utilize an Internet connection to
download Music Information and album cover icons from the web to ensure you have
album cover icons for all available albums.
The Buy Now feature also requires an Internet connection. Once you’ve marked an
album with Buy Now using the remote control, then double checked which albums you’d
like to purchase through the Utility Suite’s Librarian, the system will add those items
over the Internet to your shopping cart at Amazon for you to purchase the next time you
visit the site.
Shared Music Folders
Any folders containing audio files must be set up as shared folders to be accessed by a
TerraPlayer. When you install the TerraPlayer Utility Suite, the installation program
automatically runs the Configuration Wizard to search for folders containing audio files
and configure them as shared directories. Folders can also be manually configured as
shared.
Helpful
Hint
Use the Find Music feature on the TerraPlayer Utility Suite Installation
CD-ROM to create shared folders. If you are running one of the
compatible Windows operating systems and want to create shared folders
without installing the TerraPlayer Utility Suite, you can run the Find Music
feature directly off the TerraPlayer Utility Suite Installation CD-ROM to
automatically create shared folders.
) Refer to Find Audio Files and Create Shared Folders on page 74 for information on using
the Configuration Wizard from the TerraPlayer Utility Suite CD-ROM.
Example – Setting up Shared Folders in Windows 2000
In Windows 2000, you would select the existing folder containing the music files to be
shared, such as the ‘My Tunes’ folder shown here. Then, right-click on the folder and
select Sharing… The Properties windows will open on the Sharing tab, where you can
select Share this Folder to configure it for file sharing. This setup may vary between
Windows versions.

Connected to a Single PC via USB
The Base Transceiver has a USB port for connecting to a single PC. When connected via
USB, the PC will need to have the proper USB drivers installed. These drivers can be
installed from The TerraPlayer Utility Suite Installation CD-ROM. When you run the
installation program, it detects a Base Transceiver connected to the USB port and
automatically starts to install the USB drivers. Or, they can be installed separately using
the Install USB Drivers option.

) Refer to Shared Music Folders on page 15 for more information.
Non-Windows Platforms in a Network
Computers with compatible file systems may be used for hosting audio files to a
TerraPlayer, but must be compatible with Microsoft Windows Networking using the
Server Message Block (SMB) protocol over TCP/IP. The directory and all audio files
within that directory must then have file permissions set up to allow network access.
) Refer to Requirements on page 12 for more information on compatible platforms.

The TerraTouch OS
Introducing the TerraTouch OS
The TerraTouch OS utilizes a full-color touchscreen using album cover art as icons to
place graphic functionality at your fingertips. Searching through your digital audio
collection is now like searching through CDs, vinyl albums, or through songs on a
jukebox.
The introductory material in this section applies to the rest of this chapter. The main
controls of the TerraTouch OS break down into the following:
Mode Buttons
Operating Modes offer
different functions:
Soft Buttons
Will vary depending on the

radio (TR-100 only).
SYSTEM contains
options for configuration.
Selection Number
Selection #/Total #. Number of Artists,
Albums, or Songs per Level.
QUEUE is where items
are lined up when played.
Scroll Bars
Pan up and
down a list.
Action Buttons
Change depending on the

Modes and Views
Modes offer different functions. Favorites Mode stores your favorite selections from
LIBRARY or RADIO. Library Mode displays all of you digital audio collection in the
Music Library. Radio Mode plays AM/FM radio (TR-100 only). System Mode
controls the TerraPlayer setup. And Queue Mode is where selections are played. They
are accessed using the Mode buttons.
Views are different variations on a Mode. Individual Views are described throughout this
chapter. They are accessed using the View buttons.
Action and Soft Buttons
Action buttons will vary a little in different Modes. PLAY and HELP are always there.
The PLAY button will play a selection, and the HELP button will bring up the
TerraTouch OS Help system.
The Soft buttons will change according to Mode and View. Functions for these buttons
are described under the Modes and Views where they appear.

Indicators
The RF Link indicator appears when the wireless connection between the TerraPlayer
Radio and Base Transceiver is offline. The Headphone indicator appears only when
headphones are plugged in (TR-100 only). The Mute indicator appears only when the
MUTE button on the remote has been pressed.
Icons and Music
The TerraTouch OS uses album cover art as icons representing the albums and songs in
your collection. But, everything else is also represented by icons: Genres, Artists, Radio
stations, Playlists, and Years – and each one of these can be selected and played.
There are default icons:
Artist
Album
Genre
Radio
Playlist
Year
Custom Icons
The TerraTouch OS can also display icons of your own creation. Simply use a graphics
program to create an icon, then use the TerraPlayer Utility Suite’s Librarian program in
order to attach that icon to the artist, genre, playlist, etc. that you want.
) Refer to Create a custom icon on page 73 for more information.
Touch and Hold, Drag and Drop
You are probably already familiar with the term “drag and drop”—“touch and hold” is
similar. In the TerraTouch OS, you can select an album by touching and holding the
album icon. After a moment a duplicate of the icon appears under your finger, which you
can then drag and drop to various places on the touchscreen. So with the TerraPlayer,
you always touch and hold before dragging and dropping.
The example below shows how you can play a song. First you would find the song in
either LIBRARY or Favorites Mode. Touch and hold the icon, then drag and drop it on
the PLAY button.
Tap and Double-Tap
Tap and double-tap are the touchscreen equivalent of using a mouse on a PC. These
concepts are used throughout the TerraTouch OS.
•
Tap. To select something or use a button, tap on it once with your finger. This is
just like point-and-click with a mouse.
•
Double-tap. To select and open something, double-tap on it: tap twice with your
finger. This is just like double-clicking with a mouse.

Double-tap for Music Information
You can see Music Information on any selection in the Music Library by double-tapping
on the icon. For instance, if you double-tap on a genre or artist icon, the touchscreen will
display a Music Information screen listing all tracks of that genre or artist:
Album Music Information and Buy Now
When you double-tap on an album icon, a Music Information screen will display all the
tracks on the album.
In addition, there is the Buy Now feature. If you enjoy a song or album and would like to
buy the CD, tap the Buy Now button to add the album to a list of music you want to
purchase. This list is stored in the Music Library and can be accessed through the
TerraPlayer Utility Suite’s Librarian.
Press Buy Now
to add to a list of
albums you’d like
to buy.
) Refer to Buy CDs Now on page 78 for more information.
Throwing a Strip or the Tuner
On a screen with a strip of icons, such as Queue, or the AM/FM tuner (TR-100 only), you
can ‘throw’ the screen. For example, you are in Queue Mode, but want to see what it
towards the end. You can drag and release quickly to ‘throw’ the Map. When you
‘throw’ the strip, Map, or tuner, it will continue to scroll after your finger has released the
touchscreen, then slow to a stop further down the strip.

Library Mode
When you first power on the TerraPlayer Radio, Library Mode will be the first thing you
see—it’s the first place to find music. It is where you can look through your entire music
collection. From Library Mode, you can add selections to FAV or QUEUE.
Library Mode can be used in one of several different Views, and each view is broken
down into Levels:
Level buttons
Help you sort through your music.
View buttons
Views display the music in different ways.
Library Views
The Library can be viewed in one of four Views: Tree, Icon, Map, or List. Each View
buttons is a different layout of your music collection. Pick one according to your tastes:
•
Tree View. A text display showing only selections at the current level. Large text
makes Tree View easier to read. The only icon displayed is for the current selection.
•
Icon View. A graphic display showing icons for all selections at the current level.
Space between each icon makes Icon View easier to read.
•
Map View. A graphic display showing a flat map of icons for your entire collection.
It lets you see your entire collection in one View.
•
List View. A text display showing your entire collection. The Select Zone, located
on the center line, is the currently selected item. The icon for this item is displayed.
Library Levels
Within each view, the collection is broken down
into Levels. Level buttons organize your music
into smaller groups, to help you search through
your collection.
The Levels fit in a hierarchy, as shown here:
Genre Level
Artist Level
Album Level
Song Level
•
Genre Level. A genre is a type of music: Rock, Jazz, Rap, Classical, World, etc.
You can select and play any genre, or search a genre for an Artist.
•
Artist Level. Within each genre, music is sorted at the Artist Level. As with genre,
you can select and play any artist, or you can use search for an album.
•
Album Level. Within each artist, music is sorted at the Album Level. If an artist
happens to have an album that falls outside their standard genre, it will still appear at
the Artist Level. You can select and play an album, or search an album for songs.
•
Song Level. Under the Album, the music is broken down into the Song Level.
Depending on the View, you can select and play individual songs.

Playing Music in Library
No matter which View in the Library you are in, you can select music in the same ways.
Playing Music—Select Icon and Tap Play
You can also play a selection by choosing an icon, then tapping the PLAY button.
Choosing an icon varies between Views, so we’ll deal with those View-by-View.
Playing Music—Touch and Hold, Drag and Drop
At any point in Library Mode, you can touch and hold an icon, then drag and drop it on
the PLAY button to start playing the selection.
When you play a selection, it automatically bumps anything currently being played on the
queue, and you can tap Queue Mode to see what’s being played.
The Level Determines the Selection—Playing Genres, Artists, Albums, or Songs
The Level you are at determines what the icon represents:
•
Genre Level. At this level, all icons represent genres. If you play a genre, the
TerraPlayer will shuffle play only tracks of that genre in your collection. For
example: if you play the Jazz icon, the TerraPlayer will play random selections from
your jazz collection. This is a great feature for setting background music.
•
Artist Level. At this level, all icons represent artists. If you play an artist, the
TerraPlayer will shuffle play random track by only that artist.
•
Album Level. At this level, all icons represent albums. If you play an album, the
TerraPlayer will play the tracks in order.
•
Song Level. At this level, all icons represent songs—even though songs by default
use the album icon.

Library Mode, Tree View
When you press the Tree button, the Library will be displayed in Tree View. In Tree
View names appear in large print, to make it easy to read.
Think of Tree View like this: your entire music collection is the trunk of a tree, and music
branches out from that trunk. The first branches are genres: Rock, Jazz, Classical. These
split off into smaller branches: artists. Artist branches split off into even smaller
branches: albums. At the end of each album branch, you’ll find the leaves: songs.
So, in order to find the music selection you want, you’ve got to start from the genre and
branch out from there. You can always press the Genre, Artist, or Album buttons to go
back.

Favorites (FAV) Mode
You probably have a stack of CDs that you love to listen to sitting next to your stereo.
That’s what Favorites Mode is – a ‘stack’ of the songs, album, artist, or genres that you
love to listen to. This makes it easy to keep track of your favorite music.
There are 6 different Favorites Views (FAV Views) – FAV 1-6. Each one can be used
for something else. For example, each member of the family can have their own. Or,
you can set aside one for a playlist. Each one of these view is accessed by pressing the
FAV 1-6 buttons.
In the example below, FAV 1 has been set aside for Mary’s favorites and FAV 2 for
John’s favorites. They’ve also set aside FAV 3 as a playlist for a party they are planning.
FAV 1
Mary’s Favorites
FAV 2
John’s Favorites
FAV 3
Party Playlist
When the list gets too long to fit on the screen, you can scroll across by touching the
screen and dragging left or right. Once music has been added to a FAV View, it will
remain stored in memory even after a TerraPlayer has been powered off. The Locator
Base in the lower left shows your location in the strip.

Accessing Favorites with the Remote

Scrolling through selections in Favorites
When in a Favorites View, you can scroll back and forth through selections in the View
by pressing the L/R buttons. The current icon will be enlarged to indicate that it has
been selected.
Flagging Favorites
While a track or radio station is playing, you can add it to the current FAV
View by pressing the FLAG FAV button on the remote control.
For example, if you play a genre and the TerraPlayer stumbles across a song
you like, you can sit back in your easy chair and press FLAG FAV, and the
song will be there in your FAV View next time you look.
