How the iPod Dock Kit Works

The Stream iPod Dock interface box is powered by the Living Control CPU 

using the cables supplied. Please see the installation section of this manual.

The interface box interprets MusicBox commands sent from the Living 

Control CPU. If a Living Control MusicBox or Studio is connected to the CPU 

the commands are seamlessly transmitted between the two devices. When a 

command is sent from the CPU that matches the output number the 

interface box is set to the data is interpreted and sent to the iPod instead. 

Information, including track titles, is automatically exchanged between the 

RoomBox and iPod Interface.

Note: the Living Control MRS, EVENT! and RoomBox4 CPUs do not 

support track display updates and will only display the Album name 

selected.

Note: although MusicBox

"

 functionality for the RoomBox6 and NT 

is still available with the iPod interface, operation of the iPod source 

from the MusicBox GUI is not possible.

Important Pre-Installation Notes

The Stream iPod Dock uses active balanced line amplification to ensure no 

loss of audio quality up to 125m away from the Dock interface. Connection 

between the Interface Box and Dock must be via CAT5 or CAT6 Data cable 

fully connected pin to pin at each end. If required suitable termination plates 

should be used to maintain signal integrity.

The quality and characteristics of CAT5 and CAT6 Data Cable can vary 

enormously. A feature of the dock is the capability to charge iPod/iPhone 

Devices at up to 500mA. Extensive distances between the Dock and 

Interface Box will cause a voltage drop and the charging circuit may 

malfunction, especially with high current devices such as the iPhone. This is 

normally indicated by flickering of the Power LED on the dock, erratic charge 

status on the iPod/iPhone or communication issues. If any of these occur 

immediately disconnect the dock and either choose a shorter cable run or 

use the optional power injector locally to the dock. We recommend that the 

distance between the Dock and Interface Box does not exceed 40m, 

although where a Power Injector is used the dock can be located up to 125m 

away.
