ETHERNET CONNECTION AND FACTORY RESET
Ethernet Connection
The Ethernet connection is used for conguration and audio streaming as well as
for enabling control via the MyRussound App or the XTS Touchscreen. The default
network setting is DHCP-enabled, but the XZone70V can be congured with static
IP addressing using Web Cong. The Ethernet connection is also used for the builtin streaming services and for playing any music stored on connected network
drives using DLNA.
Note: While the XZone70V has a single physical Ethernet connection, it will
occupy a total of 2 IP addresses on the network. One address is for XZone70V
management, and the other is for the internal streaming module that the
XZone70V utilizes to provide audio content. If using DHCP, both addresses will use
DHCP. If using static IP addressing, both addresses will need to be congured with
a static address.
Factory Reset
The factory reset button has two functions. A 3-second press and hold will restore
network settings to DHCP. A 10-second press and hold will reset the XZone70V to
its factory default settings. When performing either of these functions, do not
power o the XZone70V. It will reboot automatically on its own at the proper
time. The entire reset process will take several minutes. The XZone70V status LED
will illuminate green when the process is complete.
The factory reset deletes all conguration and personal information including
service account settings and passwords.
Note: After a factory reset, the XZone70V will require valid Russound Certied
Installer credentials in order to be unlocked and congured again.

Important Considerations
1. Disconnect the power cord before making any wiring connections to the
XZone70V.
2. Verify that all connections and polarity are correct.
3. Keep all power cords away from all signal cables to prevent humming
caused by induced noise.
4. Label wires appropriately, on both ends of the wire run.
5. Avoid running speaker wires or signal cables close to house electrical
wiring for any distance. If you have to run them parallel, make sure to space
the wires at least two feet from the AC line. If you need to cross an AC line it
should be at a 90° angle.
Step 2. Connect the speaker wires as described in Speaker Connections on
page 12.
a. Strip back 1/8” of the insulation on the speaker wire and twist the end of
each wire to tighten the bundle of copper strands on each wire.
b. Place the stripped end of the wire into the appropriate terminal and
collapse the latch. Check to make sure there are no strands of copper
showing and check the security of the wire in the connector. Between each
terminal, take caution to not let the wire fray or touch another connection.
Each terminal accepts up to 14 AWG wire.
c. Connect to each speaker. Be careful to maintain polarity.
d. Re-connect the screw-down speaker terminal.
Make sure to label the speaker wire with the zone name that it is connected to.
This will allow easier system maintenance in the future.
Step 3. Connect an Ethernet cable from an open network port on the network
to the Ethernet port on the rear of the XZone70V.
Step 4. Connect the power cord to the rear of the XZone70V and then plug the
other end into an electrical outlet.
Step 5. Depress the power button on the front of the XZone70V to power on
the unit.
The XZone70V will take 1-2 minutes to fully power up. The amber LED on the
front panel will illuminate during the power-up process. When the green LED
on the front panel is illuminated, you are ready to proceed.
Step 6. Unlock the XZone70V – Using a smartphone, tablet, or laptop, navigate
to the XZone70V Web Cong main page by typing in one of the following:
a. XZone70V IP address – Enter the IP address of the XZone70V into
the web browser on your phone, tablet, or PC connected to the same
network as the XZone70V. Example: if the IP address is 192.168.0.105, type
http://192.168.0.105 into the web browser. Note: If you don’t know the
IP address, you can use a network scanning app such as FING (free for iOS
and Android) to discover the IP address of the XZone70V. The device name
you will be searching for in the FING device list is “XZone70V-XXXX” where
XXXX are the last four digits of the MAC ID of the XZone70V.
b. XZone70V Hostname – Enter the hostname of the XZone70V into the
web browser on your phone, tablet, or PC connected to the same network
as the XZone70V. For your convenience, the hostname is printed on a label
on the rear of the XZone70V. The hostname is formatted as XZone70VXXXX where XXXX is the last four digits of the XZone70V’s MAC ID.
Example: if the hostname is XZone70V-1234, type http://XZone70V-1234
into the web browser.

INSTALLATION OVERVIEW
Step 7. Firmware Update – Because new features and capabilities may
be added at any time, make sure to verify that the XZone70V has the latest
rmware available. From the Web Cong page, go to Admin, Firmware Update.
If the XZone70V has an internet connection, it will automatically verify if it is
running the latest rmware from Russound. You may update the XZone70V
by selecting Web Update for any XZone70V with an internet connection, or
by choosing File Update to update the XZone70V from a rmware update le
stored on a computer that is on the same network as the XZone70V.
Note: It can take 10-15 minutes for a rmware update to be completed.
The front panel status LED will illuminate a steady green when the update is
completed.
Automatic Firmware Updates
The XZone70V is congured by default with Automatic Firmware Updates
Enabled. This means that it will check for an update to its rmware periodically
with Russound’s servers. This check will happen at the time congured in Web
Cong under System Settings. The default time setting is set for early AM/
overnight hours in the Eastern Time Zone of the US. You may set this time for
any convenient time in your time zone. We recommend around 3am, when
it is not likely that the system is in use because a reboot will occur during an
update.
You may disable the automatic update feature if you would like the ability to
control the exact time when an update occurs. We recommend this only for
advanced users because it will require the update to be activated either onsite,
or via a 3rd party remote management service such as ihiji, BakPak, or OvrC.
At the top of the web browser, a notication will appear stating that the
product must be unlocked by a Russound Certied Installer. Click on the unlock
button and you will be taken to a page where you will enter your credentials.
Enter your Russound Certied Installer Email Address and password into the
elds shown and click “Apply”. Once your information has been validated, the
XZone70V will unlock and be ready for conguration and use. This unlock
process will need to be repeated any time that the XZone70V is reset to factory
settings using the rear panel reset button.

Front Panel LEDs – The front panel LED lights can be disabled for any
installation where viewing the operational lights would be distracting, or
where complete darkness is desired at night. The default setting is enabled.
To disable the front panel LED’s, select “Disabled” for this option in Web Cong.
Note: Only normal operation LEDs are disabled. Any error condition LED
lights will always illuminate.
Device Name – Enter the desired zone name here. The name you enter will
be visible to all users of the MyRussound App or other user interfaces when
selecting the zone they would like to control.
Make sure to choose a unique name for each zone in the entire Russound
system.. If there are two rooms named “Bar” for example, users will not know
which zone they are selecting and controlling.
AirPlay Password (Optional) - If you want to use an AirPlay password to limit
access for AirPlay users to stream audio to the XZone70V, enter an AirPlay
password and click “Apply”. This same password must be entered on any iOS
device when attempting to use Apple AirPlay to stream audio. If you do not
want to use a password to control access to AirPlay, leave the AirPlay Password

as options when streaming audio. If any of these services are not being used,
or if you wish to block access to any services for this, you can do so by dragging
and dropping the services between the “Enabled” and “Disabled” sections on
this Web Cong page.
Note: You can also re-order the services so that the services the end user
wants to use rst are at the top of the list. Simply drag and drop each service in
the “Enabled” list to the appropriate order that you would like them to appear
to the end user for each zone.
Volume Trim – The Volume Trim setting is used to allow an audio
compensation adjustment. In most cases, this setting does not need to be
modied, but if there are unusual audio characteristics such as for small
rooms, rooms lled with very reective surfaces like tiled oors and bare walls,
or rooms lled with highly absorptive materials like thick carpet and heavy
curtains, you can use the Volume Trim settings to tweak the sound levels.
The default setting for the Volume Trim level in each zone is -3 dB.
Congratulations! Your XZone70V is now fully congured.

NETWORKING SETTINGS (OPTIONAL)
Power
As an advanced networking device, the XZone70V is designed to be left on at
all times. This allows instant access to your favorite streaming audio sources at
any time and is especially useful due to the fact that most installations involve
locating the XZone70V in remote locations where it would be dicult to know
if it is powered on or o or to know its current status.
For extended periods of non-use, we recommend disconnecting the power
source to the XZone70V unit until it is needed again.
The XZone70V can be congured to use either a dynamic DHCP network
address (Default) or to use a pre-assigned static IP address. Note that the
XZone70V occupies two IP addresses on a network. One IP address is used
for communication and control information (HOST) and one is used for the
streaming services (STREAMER).
Both IP addresses are set using the Admin > Networking selection from the
Web Cong menu. Both can be set as dynamic (Default) or both can be set as
static IP addresses. Use caution when setting static IP addresses as incorrect
settings can cause network instability and cause networking products such as
the XZone70V or any other device on the network to stop working properly.
If static settings have been entered and you are experiencing diculty
communicating with the XZone70V, you can restore dynamic DHCP settings
by pressing the Reset button on the rear of the XZone70V and holding the
button pressed for 3 seconds.
When entering static IP information, two IP addresses must be assigned, one
for the Host and one for the Streamer. If DHCP is enabled on the network, use
caution to make sure that any static IP addresses assigned are not within the
range of possible DHCP addresses and that the addresses are not used for any
other networking device.
If necessary, change the Subnet Mask, Default Gateway, and DNS information
to the appropriate settings for your particular network.
Note: When changing the network address of the XZone70V, your browser
will lose its connection to the XZone70V and you will need to navigate to the
XZone70V’s new network address.

CONFIGURATION
Connections
Microphone - A microphone with an on/o switch is recommended for use
with the XZone70V. Connect the microphone using the Phoenix connector on
the rear panel.
Automatic Ducking - The XZone70V will automatically reduce the volume of
any source when it detects an audio signal on the microphone input.
Adjusting the Microphone Gain - There are two dierent controls for
adjusting the microphone volume level on the XZone70V. In order to set the
appropriate level, we recommend following these steps:
1. Pause or Mute the currently playing audio source
2. Set the front panel Mic Volume control to maximum (clockwise rotation)
3. Set the rear panel Microphone Gain control to minimum (counter-
clockwise rotation)
4. While speaking into the microphone, slowly adjust the rear panel
Microphone Gain control until the volume level is at the maximum level
you want to achieve.
Note: The XZone70V must be turned on for the microphone to work. The input
works for any operational state of the XZone70V: playing music, paused, or
muted.
Speaker Connections
The XZone70V has three separate output options: 70-volt, 100-volt, and a low
impedance setting of 4Ω (Minimum). When connecting speakers, use the
appropriate connections for each application, see diagram below.

70/100V WIRING
Wiring a 70/100V high impedance amplier like the XZone70V is much simpler
than a traditional low impedance residential amplier. All connections are
made in parallel and a thinner gauge wire may be used for a high impedance
system than a low impedance system. Typical wiring would use a 16 or 18
gauge wire in a single run from the amplier to all possible speaker locations
(now or to be added in the future). A small loop can be left at each potential
speaker location.
Adding a speaker at each wire loop is easy (either now, or in the future,
allowing for easy system updates at any time). See diagram below.

TROUBLESHOOTING
General Troubleshooting
Check for rmware updates available to make sure that your Russound
product is always up to date and to take advantage of any additional features
or supporting services that may be available.
Many issues can be resolved by power cycling the XZone70V by disconnecting
the power supply, waiting 15 seconds and re-connecting the power supply.
For networking issues, resetting network gear in the home such as the router
or any switches between the XZone70V and the router may also resolve any
issues.
If you have the XZone70V congured with a static IP address and do not
remember the settings, you can reset the XZone70V to DHCP by pressing
and holding the rear panel Reset button for 3 seconds. If there are any issues
reconnecting to the XZone70V after resetting to DHCP, unplug the XZone70V
from the network and re-connect it, or try power cycling the network router to
force a new DHCP connection.
For audio connection issues, verify all audio connections from the XZone70V
to the speakers or any amplier/receiver.

NETWORKING BEST PRACTICES
Networking Best Practices
Some of the most common problems can be caused by improper network
conguration and out-of-date rmware. Improper network conguration can
prevent XStream Series devices from connecting and communicating on the
network.
The rst step for troubleshooting is to check networking connections and
power cycle the equipment to check for proper communication.
A dedicated wireless 802.11n or better router is recommended. The reason
for this is that ISP supplied modem/router combination devices may have
incompatible settings that can cause issues with XStream Series devices
connecting or communicating across the network. It is recommended to not
use these modem/router combination devices, because the end user may not
have access to all services of the device. The ISP may have sole control over the
device settings and send updates to reset, reinitialize, or replace the device at
their discretion.
Check for rmware updates available for your Russound equipment to make
sure they are up-to-date in order to take advantage of any additional features
and supported services.
Use a network discovery and IP scanning application that can assist to better
understand the network, such as FING. http://overlooksoft.com/FING is free
and available for iOS and Android and can assist in identifying devices on the
network and if there are any IP addressing conicts.
Router Conguration:
A few routers may need additional conguration to prevent incompatibility
or intermittent connection issues. Access the router and check user accessible
settings that enable support for Multicast or IGMP and enable them or check
for options that may be actively ltering these protocols and disable those
lters. Check for other options that could have an eect on communication:
Options such as UPnP should be enabled Options such as IGMP Proxy, IGMP
Snooping, Multicast Filtering or WMM Proxy should be disabled.
Glossary
Multicast: The delivery of a message or information to a group of destination
computers simultaneously in a single transmission from the source.
Unicast: The delivery of a message or information which is sent from one point
to another point An example would be connecting to an IP address of a URL
such as www.google.com.
IGMP: Internet Group Management Protocol is an integral part of IP Multicast
and is used for one-to-many networking applications such as online streaming
audio and video, gaming, and allows more ecient use of resources when
supporting these types of applications.
WMM: Wireless Media Management is designed to support consumer and
corporate applications and works with 802.11a, 802.11b and 802.11g. The
specication provides basic prioritization of data packets based on four
categories - voice, video, best eort and background.
UPnP: Universal Plug and Play uses Multicast and allows media servers and
streaming devices to communicate.
