Configuring iQ for Streaming Radio

With the Streaming Radio feature stations can be searched by name, genre or bit rate on the system’s web server and favorite stations can be added to a station list for quick and easy access from any control panel in the house. Once added, stations can be renamed and given custom cover art using the same tools already available for hard drive library music.

Configure Wiring

Connect RCA wires from output 1 of the Streaming Audio Sources into one of the available inputs of the IMA6. See the red lines above going from the lower Streaming Audio Outputs of the server into one of the inputs of the IMA6. If you are not subscribing to Fintune both Streaming Audio Sources can be used for Streaming Radio.

		Select Sources from the drop down located at the top right of the screen.
		Drag and drop the Streaming Audio source from the left source list to the input that corresponds with the input of the IMA6. If using both Streaming Audio Sources for Streaming Radio repeat this step for the second Streaming Audio Source.
