The RoomGroove is designed to allow you to transmit the iPod
or the auxiliary source so that it can be received and played by
other KlipschCast components. To transmit from the RoomGroove,
simply select the source you wish to transmit by pressing the
“Listen” button, or the desired source on the remote (iPod or Aux),
and then press the “Transmit” button. The selected source is now
being transmitted throughout your home and is available to other
KlipschCast-enabled products.
Note: If a RoomGroove is transmitting and a second Room-
Groove is told to transmit, the second RoomGroove will bump
the first RoomGroove and occupy that wireless channel. If you
wish to configure your wireless multi-room system to allow two
RoomGrooves to simultaneously transmit, see the “Transmitting
Audio from Two RoomGrooves” section of this manual.
Transmitting Audio from the RoomGroove
The RoomGroove is designed to allow you to listen to sources
connected to, or integrated into, other KlipschCast components
such as another RoomGroove or the CS-700 DVD Entertainment
System.
To listen to a source being transmitted by another KlipschCast
device, simply press the “Listen” button to access the transmitted
source. The “Listen” light becomes red (or purple for a second
wireless source) when a wireless source is received and played. A
flashing color indicates no source is available on that channel.
Listening to Other KlipschCast Devices with Your
RoomGroove
Blue always indicates a local source. Red and purple indicate
wireless channels. If the color is flashing, the source or wireless
channel is not available.
For systems transmitting from a CS-700 system
and RoomGroove
Local source (iPod or Aux) = blue
Transmitted Cinema System source = red
Transmitted RoomGroove source = purple
For systems transmitting from two RoomGrooves
Local source (iPod or Aux) = blue
1st Transmitted RoomGroove source = red
2nd Transmitted RoomGroove source = purple
Sources and Colors of the “Listen” Light
In systems not incorporating a CS-700 system (or if the cinema
system in not intended to be part of the wireless multi-room
system), two RoomGrooves can transmit simultaneously. To enable
this feature, all components of the wireless multi-room system
must be assigned to a home code from 5 to 9. Selecting a home
code from 5 to 9 will allow a second RoomGroove to occupy the
wireless channel which was previously assigned to the CS-700.
(See “Setting the Home Code” for more detailed information.)
If two RoomGrooves are transmitting and you wish to transmit
from a third and control which wireless channel will be used for the
new transmission, you must first select the broadcast you wish to
terminate by pressing the “Listen” button until that source is heard.
Then press transmit and the new source will occupy that wireless
channel and stop the transmission of the other source. You should
now hear the new source in all the locations in which the previous
source was playing. The new source should now be available to all
active listeners.
Note: All devices in the wireless multi-room system must be set
to the same home code in order for transmissions to take place.
Transmitting Audio from Two RoomGrooves
The home code dial on the rear of your RoomGroove allows you
to select a code specific to all of your KlipschCast components
to avoid interference from neighboring systems. The home code
numbers range from 0 to 9 with 0 set as the default. All of your
KlipschCast components will initially be set to 0 and allow one
wireless channel to broadcast audio from a cinema system and
the second wireless channel to broadcast wireless audio from a
RoomGroove. The home code number should only be changed for
one of two reasons:
1) There is interference from a neighboring system – If a
neighboring system in interfering with your wireless system,
simply change all KlipschCast components to another home code.
KlipschCast components will only transmit and receive audio from
components on the same home code. Home codes 0 through 4
can be used for systems transmitting audio from a cinema system
and a RoomGroove (home codes 5 through 9 are reserved for
systems transmitting from two separate RoomGrooves and no
cinema system).
2) You wish to transmit audio from two RoomGrooves (not a
cinema system) – If you wish to transmit audio from two separate
RoomGrooves and not a cinema system, simply choose a home
code from 5 to 9 and change all KlipschCast components to that
home code. KlipschCast components will only transmit and receive
audio from components on the same home code.
Once the home code has been changed, you must disconnect and
reconnect the power cord from the wall outlet for the change to be
made. This will change the home code and allow the component to
talk to other KlipschCast components set to the same home code.
Setting the Home Code
Transmitting Audio from the CS-700
In a multi-room system incorporating a CS-700 cinema system
(sold separately), the RoomGroove remote can be used to directly
select sources from the CS-700 once the CS-700 has been
selected by the RoomGroove’s “Listen” button. The CS-700
will default to transmit its local source (the source selected for
listening/viewing on the CS-700 system) until another source is
selected. See the “Remote Control” section of this manual for
details on the remote’s functionality.
Note: All devices in the wireless multi-room system must be set
to the same home code in order for transmissions to take place.
