Streaming Server and Remote Software
To activate the streaming audio input or to use the DolbyRemote 564 software by
network connection, you need to configure the DP564 using the
Network
Settings
menu as described starting on page 4-16.
8.1 DolbyRemote 564
DolbyRemote 564 provides quick access to virtually all DP564 functions. In addition,
the application provides access to some features not available from the DP564 front-
panel interface.
Using DolbyRemote 564 allows the DP564 to be located in another room or at some
distance from the operator. While DolbyRemote 564 is in operation, the
Remote
LED
on the front panel of the DP564 is lit and access to the setup menu via the front-panel
buttons is disabled.
8.2 Hardware Connection
You can connect the DP564 remote control using either the Ethernet (
100BASE-T
),
RS-232
, or
RS-485
serial ports. For RS-232 connection, use the 8-pin mini DIN to 9-
pin serial cable supplied with your DP564 to connect to the front panel
RS-232
port.
For RS-485 connection, use a standard 9-pin to 9-pin serial cable to the rear-panel
RS-485
port.
The Ethernet connection provides the most effective communication link.
8.3 Installing DolbyRemote 564
DolbyRemote 564 software is provided on a CD-ROM.
