Pairing 

To begin streaming high quality music from your chosen media source it will first 

need to be paired with the BT100.
A.  Insert BT100 into the USB port at the back of your Stream Magic 6.
B.  Wait a moment for the BT100 to be detected.  Then double click the button to 

enter  pairing  mode,  the  BT100  indicates  it  is  in  the  pairing  state  by  flashing 

rapidly. 

C.  Put your Bluetooth compliant audio source into pairing mode. Please consult 

your manufacturer’s user manual on how to do this.

Pairing your BT100 and source establishes an authorised audio link that can then 

be used again in the future without having to go through this stage again.
After pairing you can just select the BT100 and play at any time as long as your 

Bluetooth A2DP compatible source (phone/laptop etc.) is within approx. 10m of 

the BT100.
Normally on your source you will need to select Bluetooth Pairing and then the 

BT100 should appear as ‘Cambridge Audio BT100’ in a list of locally found 

Bluetooth devices.
Select that item in the list to finish pairing.
D. On successful pairing, the BT100s LED goes off for a second or two, then triple 

flashes quickly. The LED then goes off and only lights up in the future when you are 

playing audio via Bluetooth.
E. To play back via a paired Bluetooth device, simply select the BT100 on that 

device and start playing. The BT100 LED lights up constantly when streaming SBC 

or on and flicks off every 2 seconds when streaming apt-X.

Notes:

 

-  You can pair to more than one source up to a maximum of 8 sources at any time. 

Pairing to a 9th device will cause the first one to be forgotten and so on. However 

as you would expect the BT100 can only play back from one of these sources at 

a time. 

-  When you have finished playback many sources keep the Bluetooth link active for 

a time unless you actively tell them to stop by deselecting playback via the BT100 

(do not unpair as this is not necessary).

   This can prevent another source to be able to access the BT100.
   To immediately use another source, simply deselect the BT100 for playback on 

your first source device before starting up on a second.

-  

Some devices stream empty data all the time even when paused or stopped. 

These devices will cause the BT100s LED to be on even if playback is currently 

stopped or paused.

This menu contains various setup/configuration menus as shown below.

This menu enables you to set your Stream Magic 6’s network settings, scan again 

for a connection to another wireless network, or to manually configure the network 

parameters. This is useful if you move your Stream Magic 6 to a new location for 

instance.
By default the Stream Magic 6 will be set for Automatic wired/wireless detection 

and automatic IP addressing (DHCP) which will work without setup in most 

circumstances (for Wi-Fi you will need to enter your WEP/WPA key if you have one).
In Auto mode the Stream Magic 6 will look for a wired connection first and then 

scan for wireless connections if it doesn’t find one. It will also try to obtain an IP 

address automatically from your router/DHCP server.
