IR IN  
DIGITAL OPTICAL OUT  
The IR IN connection allows remote control information  
to be carried from other devices directly into the Audio  
Server.  
The digital optical output can be used to transmit high  
quality audio to a device with a digital optical input (D/A  
converter, A/V amplifier etc.) using an optical fiber cable.  
The advantage of using the optical output is that it has  
low signal loss due to cables and is completely isolated  
from the ground loop. The audio output of the Digital  
Optical Out connector is the same as the audio output of  
the Analog Audio Out 1 connector. This output may not  
be used for making a digital copy of your media.  
COMPUTER  
The Computer port provides serial communication with  
supported devices.  
UsB  
DIGITAL IN - COAXIAL  
Allows the Audio Server to communicate with supported  
USB devices.  
High quality recordings can be made onto the hard  
disk of the Audio Server using a coaxial connection  
from a suitable device (such as Minidisc or DAT). (To be  
supported in future software releases).  
LAN  
The LAN port is used to connect the Audio Server to a  
Crestron network. It can also be used to connect the  
Audio Server to a high speed Internet connection.  
DIGITAL OUT - COAXIAL  
By connecting this jack to a digital audio component  
(D/A converter, A/V amplifier etc.), digital signals from  
the Audio Server can be transmitted directly from the  
system without first being converted to analog. The  
audio output of the Digital Coaxial Out connector is the  
same as the audio output of the Analog Audio Out 1  
connector. This output may not be used for making a  
digital copy of your media.  
RGBHV  
The RGBHV connector may be used to connect a VGA  
monitor or a suitable Plasma screen for displaying the TV  
user interface.  
MODEM  
The Modem port can be used to connect the Audio  
Server to a standard analog telephone line for Internet  
access.  
ANALOG IN  
Analog sources (such as cassette or vinyl LP) may be  
recorded onto the hard disk of the Audio Server using  
this connection. (To be supported in future software  
releases).  
VIDEO OUT  
Connect the composite Video Out of the Audio Server  
to the composite input of a suitable PAL/NTSC TV  
(depending on the supplied configuration) to display  
the TV User Interface. You may also need to switch the  
TV to the relevant AUX input to display the picture.  
ANALOG OUT A,B,C,D  
The Audio Server is a multiroom device allowing you to  
listen to different music in up to four different rooms  
all at the same time (depending on the configuration  
purchased). Each analog output should be connected to  
the input jacks of a pre-amplifier.  
s-VIDEO OUT  
Connect the S-VIDEO output of the Audio Server to the  
S-VIDEO input of a suitable PAL/NTSC TV (depending  
on the supplied configuration) to display the TV User  
Interface. You may also need to switch the TV to the  
relevant AUX input to display the picture.  
MAINs  
Connect the supplied mains lead to this connector to  
provide power to the unit.  
DIGITAL OPTICAL IN  
High quality recordings can be made onto the hard  
disk of the Audio Server using an optical connection  
from a suitable device (such as Minidisc or DAT). (To be  
supported in future software releases).

THE CREsTRON TOUCHPANEL INTERFACE  
A friendly onscreen menu can be displayed on any Crestron touchpanel within your home. The screens discussed in this  
section are a typical example of an interface provided by Crestron to its dealers. Since your dealer may have customized  
screens for you, your screens may differ with respect to presentation, but the general topics covered should apply  
nonetheless.  
What appears on the screen depends on the size of the touchpanel. Larger panels have a larger touch screen area thus a  
designer can display more information. Therefore, two versions of sample screens are shown below. Those on the left are for  
large touchpanels (10 inches or more). The screens to the right are for touchpanels less than 10 inches.  
The Music Library page, such as the one shown below, provides the convenience of easy browsing and instant access to all  
the music stored within the Audio Library available on your Audio Server. The Music Library is the first level of browsing; it  
provides a list of categories (Genres, Artists, Albums, Eras, Years, Playlists, and Tracks).  
The following items appear on every level of browsing (except where noted):  
Music browser (categories shown on Music Library page; other pages show browse-level appropriate lists)  
Navigate the browse-level appropriate list with the following buttons:  
BUTTON  
DEsCRIPTION  
Jump to beginning of list  
Scroll up list  
Scroll down list  
Jump to end of list  
Open another page by selecting a ‘jump to’ button (buttons on the Music Library page include Options, Library, and  
Now Playing). The Playlist Manager button only appears on the large touchpanels (10 inches or more).  
Select one of the four audio outputs (Zones A through D; depends on the audio server model). For touchpanels less than  
10 inches, this item appears by selecting the Options button.  
Summary of current selection (Now Playing; press this area to open a new window with more details and control). The  
summary only appears on the large touchpanels (10 inches or more).  
41  
MUsIC BROWsER  
There are a number of ways to browse and access the music of your choice. Touching an item on the music browser allows  
you to view another level and displays another page on the touchpanel. The process of making a series of selections from  
the music browser creates a browse path. As the browse path lengthens, the items listed within the music browser should  
match the music of your choice. For example, from the music browser on the Music Library page, you can view all the tracks  
on a particular artist’s album by selecting Artist (i.e., The B-52’s) and Album (i.e., Time Capsule), as shown below.  
All the options from the Music Library page are also available from any browsed page. New features on this page include:  
Browse level (for this example, the target is all the tracks on the Time Capsule album by the B-52’s)  
Play / Add toggle – selection (on the large touchpanels, 10 inches or more) provides alternating Add to Queue and Play  
buttons for the items listed within the music browser.  
BUTTON  
DEsCRIPTION  
Allows selection to be added to end of the  
play queue.  
Provides immediate playback of a particular  
selection for instant access to your music.  
For touchpanels less than 10 inches, the Add to Queue button appears by default. To switch to the Play button, select  
the Options button first.  
Back button – selection jumps back to the previously displayed page.  
NOTE: The Search button (or A-Z button for touchpanels less than 10 inches) only appears as a ‘jump to’ button at the Album  
and Track browse level assuming that albums are sorted by the artist’s name and tracks are sorted by song title (or name).  
The Search button does not perform a ‘global’ search at other browse levels.  
42  
NOW PLAYING  
Want more information about what is currently playing? Simply select the Now Playing summary located at the bottom of  
the Music Library page (or select the Now Playing ‘jump to’ button) to open the Now Playing page, shown below.  
Options include:  
Current song details – lists the song title, album title, and artist of the song now playing (genre is also shown on large  
touchpanels, 10 inches or more).  
Check the queue (select the Queue ‘jump to’ button).  
Interactive slider – allows you to jump to a particular point within the song now playing (only on large touchpanels, 10  
inches or more).  
Transport buttons – enables you to search back, pause, play, stop, and search forward through the song now playing.  
Next up details – lists the song title, album title, and artist of the next song in the queue  
Shuffle – select Shuffle to randomly reorganize the selections (i.e., albums) or tracks in the play queue. Select Off to  
disable the shuffle. For touchpanels less than 10 inches, Shuffle appears by selecting the Options button first.  
Repeat – select Repeat to replay the current track or the entire play queue. Select Off to disable the repeat. For  
touchpanels less than 10 inches, Repeat appears by selecting the Options button first.  
THE qUEUE  
Want to check something in the queue? Simply select the Queue ‘jump to’ button on the Now Playing page to open the Play  
Queue page, shown below.  
This page lists the entire queue order; you have the option to:  
Save the queue as a playlist - select Save as List (only on large touchpanels, 10 inches or more).  
Remove all items from the queue - select Remove All.  
Remove selected items from the queue (select Remove to eliminate a specific item)  
Recall that selections can be added to the end of the play queue while navigating with the music browser. Simply use the  
Add to Queue button.  
43  
PLAYLIsT MANAGER  
NOTE: The Playlist Manager is only available from large touchpanels, 10 inches or more.  
Want to create, edit and remove playlists? Simply select the Playlist Manager ‘jump to’ button on the Music Library page to  
open the Playlist Manager page, shown below.  
Notice that the music browser is identical to the Music Library page. To make an addition to a playlist, simply use the music  
browser to find a particular selection (i.e., track, album, or artist). Whatever browse path you chose, two buttons appear  
within the music browser: Audition and Add to List.  
BUTTON  
DEsCRIPTION  
Interrupts the song currently playing and plays  
the selection.  
Jump to Playlist Manager - Add to Playlist  
page so that you can add your selection to the  
end of a playlist shown in the music browser.  
To make an original playlist, select the Create New Playlist ‘jump to’ button. Use the keyboard to enter a name for the  
playlist. Select Playlists from the Playlist Manager - Music Library page. Notice that the playlist now appears in the music  
browser, but is empty. Use the procedure in the previous paragraph to add selections to the playlist. If the playlist is  
not empty, but needs adjustments, select the playlist from the music browser. Notice that all the tracks of the selected  
playlist appears in the music browser. Select Edit beneath the Options ‘jump to’ button. Three buttons appear to enable  
adjustments.  
BUTTON  
DEsCRIPTION  
Move the selection down one in the playlist  
order.  
Move the selection up one in the playlist  
order.  
Remove the selection from the playlist.  
44  
sELECTION MODE  
Compilation albums offer an interesting ‘twist’ when browsing through your library of music, because the artists can vary  
from track to track on a given album. So once again you can create a browse path by selecting an artist (i.e., Nat King Cole)  
and compilation album (i.e., Pottery Barn Dinner at Eight), as shown below.  
Select the Options ‘jump to’ button and notice that there are two ‘Selection Mode’ options available: Track and Album. Since  
Album is the default, the resultant page (shown above) shows every track on the selected album even though some of the  
artists do not match the browse path constraints of ‘Artist: Nat King Cole’. If you wish to narrow your selection so that it  
truly fits the browse path, select the Track button under ‘Selection Mode’. The result, shown below, is a music browser list  
that truly fits the browse path.  
The ‘Sort Tracks By’ option organizes the items in the music browser by Number, Name, Album, or Artist (button availability  
depends on whether you are browsing albums or tracks). The tracks listed in the example of the music browser shown above  
are sorted by number.
