What is LocationFree®?  
What is LocationFree®?  
LocationFree® allows you to watch TV programs or recorded video from any room in your home, or  
even away from home. You can transmit video from your Base Station which is connected to a DVD  
recorder (or other video devices such as set-top boxes or DVRs) to a LocationFree® client device such  
as a personal computer or PSP® system via a wireless network or the Internet.  
You can operate video devices connected to the Base Station remotely from your PSP® system by using  
the on-screen remote control function.

What You can Do with the LocationFree® Player  
What You can Do with the LocationFree®  
Player  
You can watch TV or video on the PSP® (PlayStation®Portable) system by using the LocationFree®  
Base Station.  
With the Base Station placed in a living room for instance, you can enjoy TV or video from anywhere  
in your home by using the PSP® system’s wireless LAN feature.  
You can also view the same TV programs or video available in your home on your PSP® system while  
away from home by accessing your Base Station over the Internet.

NetAV  
NetAV is the name of the process that is used to transmit video output from the Base Station to a LocationFree®  
client device such as the PSP® system. By using NetAV, you can view your home TV or video over the Internet  
using a public wireless LAN service such as a hotspot.  
Routers  
A router is a type of network device that allows users to connect multiple PCs or other devices for simultaneous  
access to the Internet using a single Internet connection. DSL modems and other network devices often include the  
same functions as a router. For details about how to use your router, please refer to its instructions.  
UPnP  
UPnP, short for "Universal Plug and Play", is a system that allows users to connect devices such as PCs and audio/  
video equipment to each other via a network. To access your Base Station and view TV or video on the PSP®  
system from outside the home, it is recommended that you use a router that supports UPnP.  
If you use a router that does not support UPnP, you will need to enter advanced settings for the Base Station and  
the LocationFree® Player (1 page 24, 1 page 25). To determine whether your router is UPnP compatible, refer  
to the instructions supplied with your router.

If your Base Station is LF-B10, you need to connect the Base Station to a wireless router with a LAN cable and  
then connect your PSP® system to the Base Station through the router.  
Notes  
• If you intend to use your Base Station LF-V30/LF-B20 in CLIENT mode, be sure to make network settings of  
your PSP® system to connect the PSP® system to your router. If you have not made network settings of your  
PSP® system yet, refer to the instructions manual of the PSP® system to create settings. If you have already made  
the network settings of your PSP® system, perform "Creating Basic Settings for the LocationFree® Player  
(Registering at Home)" (1 page 9), and then your PSP® system will be registered to the Base Station via the  
router automatically.  
You can perform "Creating Basic Settings for the LocationFree® Player (Registering via the Internet)"

z Tips  
• To use the NetAV function to watch TV or video  
away from home, we recommend that the  
connection to the Base Station be broadband with  
upload and download speeds of at least 300 kbps.  
Contact your Internet service provider for more  
information about the speed of your  
communications line.  
• The faster line speeds you use, the better picture  
quality you get when you watch TV or video using  
NetAV.  
Notes  
• Depending on your Internet service provider, you  
may not be able to connect multiple devices, such as  
the Base Station and PCs to the router at the same  
time. For more information, contact your service  
provider.  
• To determine what kind of network cable to use,  
refer to the instructions supplied with your router,  
cable modem, or DSL modem.  
• For details on setting up the connection, refer to the  
instructions supplied with your router, cable modem,  
or DSL modem. If you have any questions, contact  
your service provider.  
• Further information about configurations is also  
available on the following website.

Setting to Watch TV or Video  
Away from Home  
If NetAV Check is Incomplete  
Read the instructions on the NetAV Check screen  
and configure the necessary settings.  
You need to complete the NetAV check before  
you go out.  
Make sure that the NET AV LED (LF-V30) or the  
SETUP MODE/NETAV LED (LF-B20/LF-B10)  
goes off. If it is lit, you need to perform the  
NetAV check.  
To complete the NetAV check without modifying  
the advanced settings such as the port forwarding  
setting for the router, the router must be UPnP  
(Universal Plug & Play) compatible and the  
UPnP function of the router must be enabled.  
Refer to the instructions supplied with your  
router and confirm the settings.  
z Tip  
LF-V30/LF-B20/LF-B10 have the automatic NetAV  
check function. However, you can also perform the  
NetAV check manually from the [Base Station  
Settings] page on the Base Station. The NetAV check  
tests the setting of your Base Station and your router to  
watch video away from home.  
Open the [Base Station Settings] screen on your PSP®  
system, and then select [NetAV Check], referring to  
"Base Station Settings" (1 page 25).  
If your router is not UPnP compatible, you prefer  
not to use the UPnP function of the router, or if  
you tried to use the UPnP function but the setup  
was unsuccessful, port forwarding needs to be set  
on the router.  
The settings for port forwarding may vary  
depending on the router in use. For details, refer  
to the instructions supplied with your router.  
z Tips  
• Port forwarding is a function that allows network  
communications with your router to be forwarded  
directly to your network device (such as a PC or a  
PSP® system). It may also be called "Port Mapping",  
"Address Change" or other names. To connect to the  
LocationFree® Base Station from outside your  
home using port forwarding, you must adjust the  
settings for the router to allow the data connection  
received by the router over the Internet to get  
through to the Base Station port (initial setting: 5026  
(LF-V30), 5024 (LF-B20/LF-B10)).  
• It is necessary to set the Base Station’s IP address to  
activate the port forwarding setting on the router. For  
details, refer to the instructions supplied with your  
router and the Operating Instructions supplied with  
the Base Station.  
• Some UPnP-compatible routers are only compatible  
with specific messenger services and games. For  
such a router, set port forwarding.

can display an on-screen remote control with  
similar features as the remote control supplied  
with the Sony-manufactured DVD player, and  
use the on-screen remote control to operate the

z Tips  
• When using a remote control to watch TV or  
video, even if the power turns on and off  
correctly with [Power], other buttons may not  
be enabled. If this happens, the remote control  
settings may be incorrect. Adjust the settings to  
use the correct remote control.  
• Some devices may not have a [Power] button  
(for example, some DVRs do not). In this case,  
after completing the remote control settings,  
use the on-screen remote control to confirm  
that the buttons are enabled. Also, skip the 7th  
step forementioned.  
z Tip  
The number shown following the product type,  
for example the "(1)" in "DVD Recorder (1)",  
indicates the remote control’s mode. Select one of  
the remote control modes and if the remote  
control does not operate properly, try using the  
other remote control modes. For details on the  
remote control’s mode, refer to the instructions  
supplied with the video device in use.  
• If the buttons of the selected on-screen remote  
control are not enabled, retry the on-screen
