Network Sources
Network sources are those which stream audio to the Sigma 2200i using its
rear panel Ethernet connection. The Sigma 2200i is equipped with a hard-
wired Ethernet connection because it provides a more reliable and higher speed
connection than is typically available over WiFi. If it is not possible or practical
to run a direct Ethernet connection from your router to the Sigma 2200i,
various solutions are available. A powerline Ethernet adaptor, such as those
offered by Netgear and others may be used or a wireless bridge such as Apple’s
Airport Express provides the local Ethernet cable (called LAN or Local Area
Network) connection required by the Sigma 2200i and connects to the Network
router via WiFi.
Apple AirPlay
The Sigma 2200i is AirPlay certified; it can render audio content from Apple
iPhone, iPad or iPod touch devices or from iTunes on a Mac or PC.
To play content on the Sigma 2200i:
1. Connect your device to the same Network as the Sigma 2200i.
2. Open iTunes or the iPod App on your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch.
3. Locate and tap the AirPlay icon and select the Sigma 2200i from the
menu (if attempting to AirPlay video content from Safari or Videos, begin
playback first).
4. Press play.
When you play content over AirPlay the source will automaticaly change to the
Network source; in fact, the system will go ON automatically if it is in standby.
If your Sigma 2200i has multiple sources that select the Network input, the
system will select the most recently used (Network input) source.
The home page shows stream status including the clock rate and file format.
The Sigma 2200i supports the Apple AirPlay protocol for streaming audio
through a Network using wired (Ethernet) or wireless (WiFi) connections,
or a combination of the two. AirPlay lets you stream audio from your WiFi
Network-connected iPad, iPhone or iPod touch, or using iTunes, stream from a
(WiFi or Ethernet) Network-connected Mac or PC. Working within the Apple
ecosystem, AirPlay allows a wide range of file formats and data rates up to full
CD quality. A list of the AirPlay-supported formats and rates appears in the
specifications section of this manual.
To use AirPlay, make sure a source button to use the Network connection has
been enabled.
Note: When your Ethernet connection is active, the green and amber lights
on the Ethernet connector will be illuminated and the Network Setup page
will show the status: “Connected.” If no connection is present, the front panel
display will show the words “Not Connected” when the Network source is
selected and also appear highlighted in red when viewing the Network Setup
page.
Open iTunes on your Network-connected Mac or PC and look for the AirPlay
icon . Click on the icon to see the list of AirPlay capable “speakers” available
on your Network. Select your Sigma 2200i from this list. Choose the music you
want to hear and click play. The Network input will be automatically selected
and music will begin playing through your system. It’s that simple.
