Safe Mode
SoundBridge includes an option to run in “Safe Mode,” which is a mode with limited features
that is enabled automatically when SoundBridge detects that its software has become
corrupted. Its goal is to download a new version of software from Roku and to restore factory
settings. When SoundBridge enters Safe Mode, you will notice the text “Safe Mode” displayed
on the right side of the display. Your menu will only include options to update your software
and restore factory defaults.
While in Safe Mode, your stored network settings will not be recalled. Therefore it will be
necessary to connect SoundBridge via Ethernet before SoundBridge can connect to the
Internet in order to download new software.
Safe Mode can also be entered manually by powering SoundBridge off (by unplugging it from
power) and on again, while at the same time pressing and holding any button on the remote
control.
Restoring Factory Default Settings
To restore SoundBridge’s factory default settings, press Home Menu, select “Change Library or
Configuration,” then select System Configuration, then select “Reset to Factory Defaults.”

The SoundBridge has a command line interface that you can “telnet” to for piddling about. You
will need to telnet to port 4444. Type “?” at the command prompt to see a list of commands.
We will be documenting in more detail how to control a SoundBridge in the coming months, as
well as updating the software in this area. When documentation is available, it will be posted
on the developer section of our web site.
SoundBridge has a built-in UPnP AV “media renderer.” This protocol can be used to control the
SoundBridge from your own software. Please watch the developer section of our web site for
updates on this feature.
