Getting Started
MediaShair Mode: 1.
MediaShair mode is the normal operating mode which enables all features and functions of
the device. The Powerstation mode (described in the next section) turns on only the charging
output, and keeps the rest of the unit functions off to save power.
To turn on the MediaShair Hub and begin streaming your stored content:
a. Press and hold the power button for 5 seconds to turn MediaShair Hub on.
b. The green LED battery indicator will turn on.
c. The blue Wi-Fi indicator will begin flashing then light solid to indicate network is
ready.
d. Connect to the MediaShair Hub’s Wi-Fi network as shown for your device. (see
MediaShair Hub Setup)
e. Press and hold power button for 5 seconds to turn MediaShair Hub off.
Powerstation Mode: 2.
The MediaShair Hub has a built-in Powerstation mode that can provide a quick boost to mobile
devices such as smartphones or MP3 players in the event of an emergency. The MediaShair
Hub charging output current is rated at 1A.
*Please note that using the Powerstation mode can severely shorten the playback time if not
fully recharged before streaming media content.
If the MediaShair Hub is already on:
a. Plug the charging cable for your mobile device into the MediaShair Hub USB port.
b. The device will begin charging.
If the MediaShair Hub is off
a. Plug the charging cable for your mobile device into the MediaShair Hub USB port.

feature off.
Recharging the MediaShair Hub: 3.
Your new MediaShair Hub is shipped fully charged and ready to use out of the box. When the
battery indicator turns red, the unit must be recharged. Connect the included USB car charger,
or nearly any USB wall charger such as those included with most smartphones and tablets. For
convenience the MediaShair Hub can also be charged from any computer USB port, but due to
the lower output current of computer USB ports it may take longer to fully recharge.
Resetting the MediaShair Hub: 4.
