Introduction
in.stream
Wireless music streamed into
your yard!
The in.stream audio system provides the perfect way
to bring music to your spa. In.stream is simple to install
and compatible with many audio sources, such as iPods
and smart phones equipped with Bluetooth wireless
technology.
The in.stream design is based on its predecessor,
the in.chant, and it shares the same sleek enclosure
that has been thoroughly used and proven in the spa
environment.
Just pair your device and start playing your favorite
music. Digital music files or internet radio from your
phone will be sent wirelessly to the in.stream device
located under the spa.
The in.stream system is equipped with a transceiver and
an amplifier to host your speakers.
Main features
Fully waterproof
Speaker outputs 40 Watts x 4 ch.
Auxiliary input
Transceiver for Bluetooth wireless technology
Accessories
In order to use the in.stream system you must
also have either the in.k175 keypad or the in.k113
single switch.

Connecting the keypad to in.stream
In.k175 configuration
The in.stream system can be connected to an in.k175
keypad. This keypad allows control of volume, mute,
play, pause and track changes. The in.stream also has an
auxiliary audio input, so it can provide the audio output
for other, wired, accessories such as MP3 players or TVs.
The in.k175 keypad comes with a 20' cable with an 8-pin
mini-DIN male connector.
To connect the keypad, simply insert the male 8-pin
mini-DIN connector into the receiving 8-pin mini-DIN
labelled "wire remote connector" in the illustration.

the pairing function and to play/pause. All the other
functions can be adjusted directly from your phone or
iPod. Note that the auxiliary audio input is not available
when the in.k113 switch is used.
To connect the single switch, simply insert the male
8-pin mini-DIN connector from the attached cable into
the receiving 8-pin mini-DIN labelled "wire remote
connector" in the illustration.

Wireless set-up
Pairing with a Bluetooth technology enabled device
The in.stream system is ready to pair when it is not
already connected to another device. To pair your
device with the in.stream, first make sure you are close
enough to the in.stream system, and that it is turned on.
1. Open the Bluetooth settings on your device.
The location of the settings will depend on the device
you are using.
2. In these settings, turn Bluetooth on, if it is not already.
3. Choose "Gecko in.stream" from the list of
available devices.
4. When prompted, enter 5555 as the password.
Your device should now be paired with the in.stream
system, and ready to use.
The in.stream will keep up to 8 devices in its memory.
If one of these devices is in range and has its Bluetooth
turned on it will automatically pair with in.stream. If the
number of devices used with your in.stream exceeds
8 the first device in its memory will automatically
be erased. The device can easily be added again by
following the steps for pairing.
It is possible to erase all pairing information from the
memory by holding down the AUX button or t
switch for 10 seconds and then releasing.
If more than one device tries to connect to the in.stream
system, the priority goes to the first device that is
available during searching.
he single
Connecting to a Bluetooth technology enabled device
Once the pairing is done and connection has been
established between the devices, the in.stream will be
ready to start playing the selected audio.
If the device moves out of range and loses connection
it should reconnect automatically as soon as it is close
enough. This should happen without going through the
menu again.
