nu
FDICE
source
is
desired at a future
point,
it must be
selected
via
cycling
through
the sources stored in the
Master's Green List.
Typically, such
an
arrangement
might
occur where you
would
have
several
Air
DAC
/Amplifier
I
Speaker
systems
located
in
several
rooms and configured
so
that
you
could
move about your home
with
an
iPod playing
in your pocket. This arrangement
would allow
you
to
have music
follow
you from room
to
room
without
the
need
to
change control
settings on any
of
the
other
Air
DAC
receiver systems.
Another
application
might
apply
to
a pair
of
mono
amplifiers
(i.e.,
one channel
each) configured for
stereo
playback
and separated by a distance
in
which signal
wires going
to
each
is
not
a
practical
option.
In
that
case,
you
would
assign one Air
DAC
unit
to
each
amplifier
and
use
only
the appropriate
Left
or
Right
channel
of
each
to
feed a given
amplifier.
In
any
case,
the
following
procedures
will apply:
1)
Connect
the
appropriate
iTX
or
uTX
transmitter
to
the source device. Start
playing music from the
source and set the
volume
to
maximum.
2)
Locate
the
number
of
Air
DACs
you
will
be
using at their designated
locations, making sure
that
AC
power
is
available
nearby.
3)
Connect
the
appropriate
RCA
audio outputs
of
each Air
DAC
via
quality
interconnect cables
to
the
inputs
of
each
amplifier
I
speaker combination.
4)
Power
the
Master
unit
to
On while holding
down
the
SKAA
button
until
RED
LED
starts
flashing.
5)
Power
each
of
the remaining Air
DAC
receiver units
On.
6)
Once
the
LED
on the Master becomes solid
(stops
flashing),
turn
off
the Master and
all
of
the other
Slave
Air
DAC
receiver units.
7)
The
cluster
has
been
successfully
made. Now
turn
on the Master and
Slave
units.
8)
For each
location,
set the
volume control
of
the
amplifier
I
speaker system
to
the
minimum
position and then
turn
on the
AC
power.
9)
Slowly
turn
up
the
volume
of
each
amplifier
I
speaker system
to
a 9
o'clock
position.

0)
Listen for
the
sound
of
music playing through the speakers on each system.
If
you hear music,
then
turn
the system
volume
up
to
the desired listening level.
If
you
do
not
hear music, turn the
volume
of
the system back down, turn
off
all
Master
&
Slave
units, and then repeat steps 4 through 1
0.
Dismantling
a
Cluster
At some
point
after having created a
cluster you may wish
to
return the Air
DAC
receivers back
to
stand-alone
operation
so
that
they can once again be used
as
individual
units. In
order
to
so,
simply
follow
steps
#1
through
#4
above in "Creating a
Cluster" while
omitting
step
#5.
In other words,
follow
the steps in creating a
"Master"
without
turning
on
the
additional
units
that
would
become
"Slaves."
Once
step
#4
has
been
completed,
then
turn
off
the
unit
in question
as
stated in step
#6.
When you
turn
it
on
the
next time,
that
unit
will
now
operate
as
an
independent
receiver.
Air
DAC
I
SKAA
CONTROL
GUIDE
Each
Air
DAC
I
SKAA'"
receiver
uses
a Green List
to
keep track
of
your favorite transmitters (up
to
ten
of
them). Hunting
through
your Green List for your favorite transmitters
is
signaled
by a Green
LED.
Your
receiver
can
also explore
to
find new transmitters.
Exploring
is
signaled
by
an
Amber
LED.Ifyour
receiver
has
two
or
more wireless
pieces-
for
example,
a
left speaker and a
right
speaker-
we
call
that
a
Cluster.
Each
Cluster
uses
only one Green List. In
that
way,
all
of
its pieces perform
as
one. You
can
command
SKAA
by using the
SKAA
Button (the
button
with
the
1••1
logo).
