APPENDIX E - FIREBALL INTERNET CONNECTIONS
When Does FireBall Connect To Internet?
FireBall is designed to automatically connect and disconnect from the Internet as
needed. Dialup modem Internet connections will automatically disconnect 2.5 minutes
after a period of network inactivity. The following is a list describing when Internet
connections occur:
Quick Start:
During the initial quick start process – an Internet connection status dialog and progress
indicator are provided to show the status of the connection and registration process.
CD Lookup:
Each time a CD is inserted in the Front Panel CD drive, each time a CD Player door
is opened and closed and a new disc is found, or whenever the user performs a Quick
Lookup, Lookup Range, or Lookup All from Setup, FireBall will automatically connect
to the OpenGlobe server in order to retrieve disc information and cover art. The status
of the connection and the status of the information retrieval is displayed in the lower left
portion of the Music Player screen.
Power Loss:
When Power is lost and then restored, FireBall automatically dials out and retrieves the
correct time.
