Note: in general, Freda will not work with a Calibre server running on the same machine as Freda. Tap the 'edit' button, and for 'calibre host' enter the IP address mentioned above, and tap 'ok' to save it.Tap the source icon it will open and fail to find the source contents.

Don't fill in anything for URL or search URL yet. On your device, run Freda, go right to the books sources list, and find (or create) an OPDS source called 'calibre'.Ensure your device is connected via WiFi or a wired network, to the same network as the machine running Calibre (not via mobile data).Look up the IP address of the machine that’s running Calibre.

Start the Content Server and leave Calibre running.

In Calibre’s preferences screen, set the Content Server username and password to your preferred values, and make a note of them.
