OVERVIEW OF FUNCTIONS
The COMELIT AUDIO PLAYER enables you to set up a multi-room audio system.

The COMELIT AUDIO PLAYER is either connected to an existing hi-fi system or the connected
speakers are fed via an integrated amplifier.
1.2
FUNCTIONAL PRINCIPLE
The COMELIT AUDIO PLAYER is based on the SQB system. This has a central server (Logitech
Media Server or Squeezebox Server) to which several streaming clients are connected.
The COMELIT AUDIO PLAYER not only has an integral SQB client, but also an integral SQB server.
This means it can be operated in both “PLAYER MODE” and “SERVER-PLAYER MODE”.
a) PLAYER mode:
In the PLAYER mode, the COMELIT AUDIO PLAYER acts as a streaming client and plays
back music from a SERVER (ART.20004500). The PLAYER receives the audio files in digital
form via the network in data packets from the SERVER and then converts these into an
analogue music format so that they can be played back by the speakers.
b) SERVER MODE:
In this mode the SERVER acts simultaneously as a SERVER and as a PLAYER (only
20004501 and 20004502). In other words, the internal client accesses the internal server so
that the device can also be used in “stand-alone” mode. In this mode, however, there are
restrictions. It is only possible to connect storage media with a total capacity of up to 32 GB,
i.e. one USB stick with 32 GB or two USB sticks of 16 GB each can be connected.
ART.20004501 and 20004502 can be used like a PLAYER and SERVER simultaneously
only if you have 1 audio zone. If you have 2 or more audio zone you have to use the
art.20004500 like a server.
