SETTING UP iBALL CONNECTIONS
The speaker and transmitter dock can be connected to
different audio sources and video output devices while the
iPod remains docked to the transmitter dock, allowing for
flexible ways to playback music and photos (iPod with color
display).
AUDIO CONNECTION
TRANSMITTER DOCK LINE-OUT
The transmitter dock’s line-out jack (Composite Video +
Audio L/R out) allows a secondary audio source such
as the Oregon Scientific Music Element 2.1 CD Micro
System to be connected. This allows music from the
docked iPod to playback on Music Element’s speakers
at the same time as the iBall speaker.
1. Use a red-white audio cable and connect the red-
white connectors to the AUX-IN jacks of the
secondary audio source.
TIP Your secondary audio source may only have line-in
jacks available, in which case a standard stereo cable
can be used to connect to the transmitter dock.
2. Plug the other end of the cable (stereo connector)
to the transmitter dock line-out jack.
3. Set the secondary audio source to “AUX” (auxiliary)
mode. If music is already playing back f r o m t h e
iBall speaker, music will begin playback from the
speakers of the secondary audio source.
4. Instead of having to go to the iPod to control its
play / pause and previous / next track functions, they
can be adjusted directly from the iBall speaker (with
the exception of the iPod shuffle, since its functions
can only be controlled directly from the unit itself).
TIP The iPod, iPod mini, iPod shuffle and iPod with
color display can use a line-out connection to enable
music playback on secondary audio source.
TRANSMITTER DOCK AUX-IN
The transmitter dock’s aux-in jack allows a secondary
audio source to be connected, allowing you to switch
between listening to audio from the iPod or the secondary
audio source at anytime.
1. Use a red-white audio cable and connect the red-
white connectors to the audio-out jacks of the
secondary audio source.
TIP Your secondary audio source may only have line-
out jacks available, in which case a standard stereo cable
can be used to connect to the transmitter dock.
