USING YOUR AUDIO SERVER IN A
MULTIROOM SYSTEM
A single Audio Server is capable of playing different
music in up to four different rooms simultaneously. This
section explains how the Audio Server can be integrated
into a multiroom environment and how users in
different rooms can access music from the
Library
.
Basic Configuration
When the Audio Server is not part of a larger multiroom
control system you can access the
Library
from remote
rooms by displaying the TV user interface in the
room where you are located. The TV display is able
to automatically switch to controlling the output
appropriate to your location by configuring the Audio
Server remote control with a default output. More
information about configuring your remote is given in
the section titled
Remote Control Use in a Multiroom
System
on page 11.
The diagram below shows the connections required in a
basic multiroom configuration:
Video Out
connector on the rear of the Audio
Server is connected to the
Video In
connector of
a Video distribution system. The four
Video Out
connectors on the Video distribution system are
then connected to the
Video In
connectors on each
of the four televisions. This allows the TV user
interface to be viewed on all televisions around the
home.
•
A separate Infrared receiver eye is placed in each of
the four rooms which transmits received infrared
information to an Infrared router. A connection
is made between the infrared router and the
IR
Receiver
port on the rear of the Audio Server,
through which the received infrared commands are
passed. See
Remote Control Use in a Multiroom
System
on page 11 for more information.
Note:
contact your dealer or installer for information
about purchasing additional Audio Server remote
controls.
Analog Out 1, 2, 3 & 4
are each connected to the
stereo inputs of an amplifier located in each of the
four rooms.
Multiroom Control Systems
Your Audio Server is compatible with a number of
other Xantech Multiroom products such as the MRC88
Multiroom Controller/Amplifier and SmartPad LCD Touch
Panels to offer a complete home installation. The system
uses a versatile protocol called XIVA-Link which allows
access to most of the Audio Server functions remotely
from the MRC88 Control System and/or SmartPadTM LCD
controllers.
For more information on using your Audio Server with
other Xantech Products, please consult the XMUSIC
Advanced Feature addendum (AA13.pdf) as found in
the Application Advisory section of the www.Xantech.
