The iCEBOX supports satellite and digital cable television service; how-  
ever, when using satellite service, the iCEBOX remote or keyboard cannot  
be used to change channels. Continue to use your existing remote control  
with the set-top box.  
Your satellite signal may come in through the standard TV-In coxial connec-  
tion. See To connect the TV cable in the previous section.  
Alternately, you may wish to take advantage of the higher quality of Satel-  
lite or Digital Cable by using the S-video connection. You can connect  
digital cable or a Direct Broadcast Satellite (DBS) system, such as DirectTV  
or DISH, to your iCEBOX. See To connect an S-Video source in the next  
section.  
Note: If you use an S-Video connection from your Satellite or Digital  
cable, you will need to use Video Mode to watch television. See  
Video Mode on page 41. The iCEBOX remote or keyboard can-  
not be used to change channels in Video Mode. Continue to use  
your existing remote control with the set-top box.

FlipScreen Owners Manual  
The iCEBOX supports three types of Internet connectivity using a PCMCIA  
Network card. Depending upon which type of card is used, you can con-  
nect using:  
Connecting to the  
Internet  
Wired (Ethernet) Broadband. Your broadband service may be pro-  
vided over DSL or cable modem.  
Wireless (802.11b) Broadband. This requires a wireless network.  
Dial-Up Internet Access. The dial-up Internet services must not require  
the installation of additional software.  
Wired Broadband Connectivity  
Your iCEBOX accessories box includes a PCMCIA Network card which  
supports an Ethernet connection to a DSL or cable modem. Because the  
iCEBOX uses the Windows CE .NET platform, we cannot ensure that an  
alternate network card will work. Please contact customer support for a  
current list of alternate supported cards.  
The following instructions assume that your DSL/cable modem and home  
network are already installed and configured. For more detailed Internet  
Connection information, refer to the Installation Manual.  
To connect using a Wired Broadband (DSL or cable modem)  
connection  
1. Insert the networking card into the PCMCIA slot on the back of the iCE-  
BOX (fig. 5).  
2. Insert an Ethernet cable from your home network into the Ethernet jack  
on the PCMCIA card.  
In most cases, no further connection settings are required. If no  
connection is established when you first go to Internet Mode, see  
Configuring a Wired Broadband Connection on page 33 for  
more information.  
10  
 
Getting Started  
Wireless Broadband Connectivity  
There are two ways to connect the iCEBOX to your wireless network:  
Using an approved wireless PCMCIA Network card; or,  
Using a wireless bridge connected to the ethernet PCMCIA card.  
Because the iCEBOX uses the Windows CE .NET platform, we cannot  
ensure the compatibility of all wireless network cards. Please contact cus-  
tomer support for a current list of supported wireless PCMCIA networking  
cards.  
To connect using a wireless PCMCIA card  
1. Insert a wireless networking card into the PCMCIA slot on the back of  
the iCEBOX (fig. 5).  
Further configuration settings are required to connect to your wire-  
less network. See Configuring a Wireless Connection on  
page 33.  
To connect using a wireless bridge  
1. Insert the included networking card into the PCMCIA slot on the back  
of the iCEBOX (fig. 5).  
2. Connect the wireless bridge to your home PC and configure it follow-  
ing the directions provided by the manufacturer of the bridge.  
3. When the wireless bridge is properly configured for your wireless net-  
work, disconnect it from your home PC.  
4. Insert one end of an Ethernet cable into the bridge, and one end into  
the Ethernet jack on the PCMCIA card.  
In most cases, no further connection settings are required. If no  
connection is established when you first go to Internet Mode, see  
Configuring a Wired Broadband Connection on page 33 for  
more information.

FlipScreen Owners Manual  
Dial-Up Connectivity  
To connect to a dial-up Internet provider, you will need to use a PCMCIA  
modem card equipped with an RJ-11 phone jack.  
Note: The iCEBOX does not currently support any ISPs that require  
downloading or installing software. At the time of the printing of  
this manual, AOL is an example of an ISP that will not work with  
the iCEBOX because of their download requirements, although  
you can still retrieve AOL mail using the iCEBOX Internet browser.  
To connect using a Dial-Up connection  
1. Insert the modem card into the PCMCIA slot on the back of the  
iCEBOX.  
2. Plug the analog telephone line into RJ-11 jack on the modem card.  
Further configuration is required. See Configuring a Dial-Up Con-  
nection on page 34.  
Caution: Do not connect the iCEBOX to a digital phone line.  
Severe damage can occur to the iCEBOX.  
!
Digital Versus Analog Phone Lines  
Two types of phone lines are commonly available: analog and digital.  
Most homes are wired with analog phone lines. Digital lines are usually  
found in commercial and industrial sites. However, newer homes, apart-  
ments, and condominiums may be prewired with high-speed digital phone  
lines.  
All modems, including that in a PCMCIA networking card, require an ana-  
log phone line. Connecting a modem to a digital line will cause  
permanent damage to the modem.  
To determine which type of line you have, look at the phone line connec-  
tor. An analog phone connector is terminated with 2 or 4 copper wires. A  
digital connector is terminated with 6 or 8 copper wires. If you cannot  
determine for certain which type of phone line you have, contact your  
phone service provider.  
If You Have a Digital Phone Line  
In commercial buildings, apartment buildings, and condominiums, digital  
phone lines usually come from a telephone switch or PBX located in the  
building. These telephone switches will also support analog phone lines.  
The telephone system administrator may be able to arrange for an analog  
phone line to be brought to your location from the local telephone switch.  
12  
 
Getting Started  
If you live in a house wired with a digital line, you can arrange with your  
phone company to have an analog line brought into your home. In addi-  
tion, many digital phone manufacturers offer inexpensive adapters that  
plug into the digital phone line and convert it to an analog line. These  
adapters usually work best at lower modem speeds.  
Printer  
Connecting Other  
Devices  
You can print Web pages with a compatible printer. Connect a printer to  
one of the USB ports on the bottom of your iCEBOX (fig. 5).  
For more information on using printers with your iCEBOX, visit  
support.iceboxllc.com.  
External Speakers  
You can route sound through a home stereo or other amplified audio sys-  
tem. Connect your system to the Audio Out connections on the rear panel  
of the unit (fig. 5). For more information, refer to the instructions that were  
provided with your audio system.  
The iCEBOX operates with a current of 110 V AC, 60Hz. A 110 V AC  
power cord is supplied with your iCEBOX.  
Connecting the  
Power  
To connect the power  
1. Ensure that the power switch on the back panel is in the off position  
(“O” is depressed).  
2. Plug the supplied AC power cord into the AC connector on the rear  
panel of the iCEBOX.  
3. Plug the other end into a 110 V AC wall socket.  
4. Turn the power switch to the on position (“|” is depressed).

Configuring Connection Settings  
The iCEBOX can connect to the Internet in three different ways:  
Wired (Ethernet) Broadband  
Wireless (802.11b) Broadband  
Dial-Up  
Configuring a Wired Broadband Connection  
If you’ve installed the included PCMCIA Network card for a wired (ether-  
net) Broadband connection, further configuration may not be needed. The  
iCEBOX is set by default to support DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration  
Protocol), which is suitable for most households. If your Internet Service  
Provider (ISP) support DHCP, the iCEBOX should connect automatically  
when you go to Internet Mode.  
However, if you use a Static IP address further information is required to  
connect. Your ISP will need to provide you with a static IP address, subnet  
mask, gateway router and DNS servers.  
To configure a Broadband connection  
1. Press Internet to switch to Internet Mode, then press Options.  
2. From the Internet Options menu, select Connection Settings.  
3. Select the Broadband Settings button.  
4. Select the Ethernet Type.  
Select the Use DHCP (Auto) if your ISP supports dynamic host con-  
figuration protocol (DHCP).  
Clear the Use DHCP (Auto) checkbox if your ISP does not support  
DHCP.  
5. If needed, enter static IP address, subnet mask, gateway router and  
DNS servers.  
6. Choose OK.  
Configuring a Wireless Connection  
If you are using a wireless network card, you’ll need to configure the con-  
nection settings the first time you go to Internet Mode. This may include a  
WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) key and other security settings. This may  
also include additional IP information if you use a Static IP address.  
To configure a Wireless connection:  
1. In Internet Mode, press Options.  
2. From the Internet Options menu, select Connection Settings.  
3. Select the Wireless Settings button.  
4. Select your home network.

If the connection is not successful, the Options dialog remains  
open so you can resolve the issue.  
Some networks are set up to allow only specific devices to connect based  
on the device’s MAC (Media Access Control) address. You can quickly  
find the MAC (Media Access Control) address (also known as the physical  
address) of your wireless card.  
To find a cards MAC address

If you have inserted a modem card, you can enter the information  
required to dial up to your ISP and log in.  
Note: The iCEBOX does not currently support any ISPs that require  
downloading or installing software. At the time of the printing of  
this manual, AOL is an example of an ISP that will not work with  
the iCEBOX because of their download requirements, although  
you can still retrieve AOL mail using the iCEBOX Internet browser.  
To configure a Dial-Up connection  
1. In Internet Mode, press Options.  
2. From the Internet Options menu, select the Connection Settings button.

A: No, you cannot add more memory to your iCEBOX. However,  
the amount of RAM currently installed in the iCEBOX is more  
than adequate to handle all of its functions.  
Q: Can you print from the iCEBOX?  
A: Printing is currently available with a variety of printers.  
Q: Do the remote and keyboard use infrared (IR) or radio fre-  
quency (RF) to communicate with the iCEBOX?  
A: Infrared.  
Q: Can I hook up external speakers to the FlipScreen?  
A: Yes. In addition to the two speakers that come standard with  
the FlipScreen, it comes equipped with audio connections on  
the back panel for additional speakers. These additional  
speakers would need to have their own dedicated amplifiers.

Service and Cleaning Questions  
Q: Are the remote and keyboard covered by the warranty?  
A: Yes.  
Q: If I choose to not register my unit, will I be able to get customer  
support?  
A: For Icebox, LLC, to provide basic customer support, you must  
provide the serial number of the unit and your contact informa-  
tion. If you decline to register and the problem that you are  
having is related to needing iCEBOX updates, Customer Care  
may be limited in terms of what they can do to assist you. To  
register your iCEBOX, visit http://support.iceboxllc.com.  
Q: What happens if I accidentally spill water or food on the key-  
board and/or remote?  
A: Both items are water resistant. They can be washed with a  
mild detergent and water and then rinsed under the kitchen  
faucet.  
Q: How do I clean the touch screen display of my iCEBOX  
FlipScreen?  
A: Any household cleaner that does not contain vinegar is appro-  
priate. Do not spray the cleaner directly on the screen. Spray  
the cleaner on a nonabrasive cloth and rub the surface of the  
display to clean it.  
Television Questions  
Q: Does the iCEBOX support picture in picture?  
A: No, because picture in picture does not present well on a  
small screen.  
Q: Does the iCEBOX support video out?  
A: No, the product is strictly video in and can act as a video  
monitor.

Internet Questions  
Q: What are the requirements for which Broadband carriers I can  
use?  
A: At this time, any Broadband service provider’s technology  
should work with the iCEBOX. No additional software needs  
to be installed onto the iCEBOX FlipScreen.  
Q: What are the requirements for which Dial-Up ISPs I can use?  
A: As of the publishing of this document, the iCEBOX FlipScreen  
cannot support downloaded ISP software, such as that pro-  
vided by AOL®. However, you can still access your Email at  
the AOL Anywhere® or MSN Hotmail® sites. All other major  
ISPs, such as Earthlink™, will work with the iCEBOX. More  
information about Web-Based Email is available in the iCE-  
BOX Help.  
Q: What does it mean when the same Web site viewed on my  
iCEBOX looks slightly different from how it looks on my PC?  
A: If this occurs, it will occur very rarely. It is a result of very  
minor differences between your iCEBOX browser and the  
browser on your PC. The iCEBOX browser is built on  
Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.5.  
Q: Can I use Internet Connection Sharing (ICS) to connect my iCE-  
BOX through my existing PC running the Windows operating  
system?  
A: If your existing PC is running Windows 98 Second Edition,  
Windows 2000, Windows Millennium Edition (Me), or Win-  
dows XP with Internet Connection Sharing installed, your  
iCEBOX, as well as other computers on your LAN, can then  
gain access to the Internet through the connection on the com-  
puter that has Internet Connection Sharing installed. For more  
information about ICS, visit http://www.microsoft.com  
DVD and CD Questions  
Q: Why don’t some DVD buttons on the remote and keyboard  
work with all DVDs?  
A: Not all DVDs are published with all of the features that the  
iCEBOX is capable of supporting. In some cases, DVD manu-  
facturers have certain features available only at specific times.  
In addition, certain content will not respond to all commands.  
For example, the Stop button will not affect the “FBI Warning”  
screen.

Caring for Your iCEBOX  
FM Radio Questions  
Q: Why does the product have FM only (and not AM as well)?  
A: Based on our research, the vast majority of our customer  
demographic listens exclusively to FM radio.  
Q: How many radio channels can I store with the product?  
A: The product will store as many as 21 channels.  
Q: Can I listen to the FM radio while in Internet mode?  
A: No, the product does not have this capability at this time.  
Q: Can I install my own FM antenna on the back of the  
FlipScreen?  
A: Yes. The antenna supplied with your unit has been tested and  
will typically provide good FM radio reception. You may be  
able to improve reception by using a more powerful antenna.  
Q: Does touch screen work with the FM radio mode?  
A: Yes. The touch screen works with all the functionality of the  
Radio mode.
