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.
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 File menu, select Preferences.
2. Click the Advanced tab.
3. Select WMA or WAV from the Line-In Encoding list, and click OK. When WMA is
selected, you will notice a slight delay before the music starts to play.
Sonos 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 by selecting Help→Sonos
System Registration. 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.
Turning Off All ZonePlayers
If you want to stop your Sonos Digital Music System from playing music, press Pause
All from the Play menu. All of your ZonePlayers will remain off until you touch Play
to restart each zone or zone group.
Resetting Your Desktop Controller Software
If you want to join your computer to a different Sonos Digital Music System, you must
reset your Desktop Controller.
1. Select Reset Desktop Controller from the Help menu.
