Using the Unit
Connecting the Unit to Power Source
Connect the AC adaptor cable plug into the DC jack on the back of the system, then plug the AC adaptor into the wall
outlet. Adaptor must be plugged in to operate unit.
The unit does not operate on batteries
(the battery back up system
maintains clock settings during power failures).
Updating your iDL46 firmware
For best performance, make sure to update the iDL46 firmware. To do so, download the free iHome Set app from the App
Store. Launch the app, scroll to “Search for Update”, then follow directions to update the firmware.
Turning the Unit ON or OFF
Press the
Button
on the unit at any time to turn the unit On or Off. Note that a docked iPad, iPhone or iPod will
continue to charge when the unit is turned off as long as the AC adaptor is plugged in. You can also turn the unit ON
automatically by docking a playing device (or connecting one to the USB dock), and turn the unit OFF by disconnecting
a playing device from the dock OR USB dock.
Setting the Clock Time Using AutoSync
The AutoSync feature automatically syncs the time setting on the unit to the time on your iPad, iPhone or recent model
iPod (iPod touch, iPod nano and iPod Classic; older iPod models such as iPod mini do not support this feature).
By default, the unit is set to AUTO SYNC ON mode and will attempt to autosync the time whenever a capable iPad,
iPhone or iPad is docked to the Lightning dock OR connected to the USB dock and at 2AM each day.
To manually time sync at any time to a docked device, press and release the Clock Button.
NOTE:
iPhone time is automatically updated to the correct time via cell phone towers. The time on your iPad or iPod is
accurate only to the time on the computer the last time the iPad/iPod was synced to it. It’s possible to have up to 59 seconds
difference between the unit and a synced iPad/iPhone/iPod.
