10.2.1 Setting Up NetSync on the Master Pro
You can set up NetSync over both your internal
network and over the Internet. To set up NetSync
every Pro and Zone will need an IP address. See
section 6.1 for Network Configuration.
To set up the Master AudioReQuest Pro unit go to
MENU (F3)
→
NetSync
→
Master Host Settings. By
default this setting is enabled and set to a 5
minute Netsync interval. By being enabled, the
Pro will allow Zones to Netsync the data from the
Pro. In this case, the interval means five minutes
after the AudioReQuest Pro has changed the Pro
will notify the zones that there is a change and to
NetSync.
10.2.2 Setting Up NetSync on the Zone
Each Zone must be set to NetSync to the Master. To set up the Zone unit go to MENU (F3)
→
NetSync
→
Client NetSync Settings. There are two choices: Set NetSync Master via
ARQLink (see section 10.3) or Set NetSync Master with IP Address. With ARQLink, NetSync
is managed on your ARQLink account automatically (recommended). Otherwise, choose to
enter the IP Address of the AudioReQuest Pro Master setting. Note: These settings can also
be set on the built-in Web Server on each Zone, under Settings.
There are three modes to NetSync that can be set
on each Zone:
Auto will check the Master at the time interval set
by the Master.
Backup forces the Zone to check every number of
days set here. This is useful as a backup
mechanism or for Multi-location NetSyncs.
No Automatic NetSync will only NetSync when
the user forces it MENU (F3)

10.2.3 Setting Up Pro As A Zone
You can set up an AudioReQuest Pro to behave as
a Zone unit so that you can add music from
another AudioReQuest unit or if you are upgrading
the unit itself. Note: This setting can also be
changed on the Web Server and requires a reboot.
To set up an AudioReQuest to work as a Pro As A
Zone go to Menu (F3)
→
NetSync
→
Pro to Pro
Settings and choose Pro As A Zone. While the unit
is set up this way, you will not be able to create
playlists, edit, delete or even add music through
the CD-Rom. To use these functions the unit must be set up as a Master.
