Displaying iPod content on the FD 100 graphic remote control handset
The
K2M
offers two methods of playing and operating an iPod.
Setting 1
Music and video playback
The first setting - which is also the default - provides a means of playing music
content
and
video content. In this case you carry out navigation tasks on the
iPod’s screen, and control operations on the K2M or directly on the iPod. In this
mode the iPod is displayed as its own source, assuming that it is connected. In
this setting the FD 100 can only control the iPod. The iPod itself does not pass
any information to the K2M in this mode, for which reason the FD 100 is also
unable to display any information.
Setting 2
Music playback only
The second option is to switch control to the Streaming Client, which provides a
convenient method of controlling the iPod using the FD 100. In this mode of
operation the iPod does pass the information required to the K2M, but in this
case video playback via the K2M is not supported by the iPod; this
configuration there-fore only permits pure audio playback. The iPod no longer
appears as its own source; instead it features in the list of available streaming
client media and devices. In this mode navigation and operation of the iPod are
carried out exclusively via the K2’s ‘Streaming Client’ source. The iPod is
operated in the same way as described in the operating instructions for the
streaming client.
If you wish to see the content and information on the FD100’s screen
during navigation and playback of the iPod, this is only possible in the
second setting (navigation on the K2’s integral screen), as the iPod only
provides the information required for the display in this mode.
This is the procedure for switching the K2M between the two iPod modes:
•
Switch the device on from stand-by, and directly afterwards hold the
button pressed in until the “Software Update Menu” appears.
•
Use the
button to switch to the “iPod info on” menu point, then
activate this point by pressing the
button.
•
You can now select the desired setting using the
/
buttons,
and confirm your choice with the
button.
•
The final step is to close the menu by pressing the
button.
It is not necessary to change any settings on the iPod.
