Crestron Adagio™ AAS-1/2/4 Audio Server
Audio Server: AAS-1/2/4
Purpose
The purpose of this addendum is to provide correction to errant information within
the original AAS-1/2/4 User Guide (2014056). Specifically, this addendum is design
to replace the material covered on pages 41 through 44, entitled “The Crestron
Touchpanel Interface”.
Correction for “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 throughout this section of the
guide. 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 after this paragraph, provides the
convenience of easy browsing and instant access to all the music stored within the
audio library available on the Adagio Audio Server. The Music Library page is the
first level of browsing; it provides a list of categories (Genres, Artists, Albums,
Playlists, Tracks, Eras, and Years).

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 Artists (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.
