8.1 CONTROL FOR iPOD, iPHONE AND AUXILIARY SOURCES

If the sound system includes a Docking Station, by using the touch screen you can control:

- Apple devices (iPod/iPhone);

- auxiliary stereo sources.

Auxiliary stereo sources are connected to the Docking Station with the jack on its base; this input takes priority over any Apple device connected to the Docking Station and therefore the iPod/iPhone can only be controlled when there is no auxiliary source. When the Apple device is connected, the zone page displays the button to access Docking Station control (central button, next to the icon representing the device) thus providing access to the Playback menu.

■ PLAYBACK MENU

The Playback menu is displayed in two separate forms depending on whether the device is enabled for remote control.

Playback menu with remote control enabled

In this case, on touching the Details button on the zone page, the touch screen will display the Playback menu that provides information on the operating status of the Apple device and its control.

The three above screens illustrate respectively:

- the playback status of a track and the selection made for the shuffle or repeat option (in this case shuffle);

- the pause status in which the properties of the track being played are always visible;

- the stop playback status of the track.

The playback options, indicated with shuffle and repeat, can each have three different statuses:

- Shuffle.

Albums status: plays the albums in the playlist in random order

Tracks status: plays the tracks in the playlist in random order

Off status: Shuffle option not activated

- Repeat.

All Tracks status: repeats the playlist cyclically

One Track status: plays the track now playing continuously

Off status: Repeat option not activated

With the playback menu it is therefore possible to:

• select track play/pause (icons and );

• shift playback to the previous track or the next one (icons and );

• cyclically vary the Shuffle and Repeat (icons and );

• access the device navigation menu (incon );

• exit the Playback menu and view the zone menu (icon ).

Speaker System

Playback menu with remote control disabled

When the remote control is not enabled, the Playback menu displayed on the touch screen is the following:

In this case the display will no longer show:

- the words identifying the Artist, Album and Track;

With the remote control disabled, it is possible to control only the play/pause status of the track now playing and to control the skip forward and back.

■ NAVIGATION MENU

The navigation menu, accessible by touching the icon of the Playback menu, enables browsing the database of the device connected to the Docking Station and editing the playlist currently being used.

The navigation menu screens are generally composed of:

• up to four words corresponding to Playlist, Artist, Album and Track;

• four navigation buttons (icons , , and );

• one confirmation button (icon );

• one button to exit the navigation menu (icon ).

Browsing through the database enables selecting the category of Playlist or Artist on the following screens:

The current category is highlighted in green and, depending on the one selected, the only icons selected will be the ones for making the correlated moves.

For example: on "Playlist" touch the

icon to enter "Artist", then touching displays the list of artists

saved on the iPod/iPhone.

Access from Playlist category

Browsing through this category enables selecting one of the playlists saved on the iPod/iPhone and selecting the track in the playlist from where to start playing.

The following screens are displayed:

On the screen with the Playlist category browsable, the button has different graphics and enables returning to the category selection screen (Playlist, Artist).

The button is always active and enables returning to the playback menu without changing the current track playback status.

Access from Artist category

Browsing through this category enables selecting one of the artists saved on the iPod/iPhone and then selecting the album and the track (of the selected artist) from where to start playing.

The following screens are displayed:

When accessing the Artist category (left screen), the corresponding field will show the wording of the first item in this category saved on the Apple device. The dotted line indicates the possibility of continuing to browse within the Album and Tracks categories; the confirmation button is enabled (icon ) to start playing the active selection, automatically returning to the playback menu.

It is then possible to play all the content relating to a specific artist, to a specific album and lastly it is possible to choose the track with which to begin playing the album.
