Controlling Spotify Connect; Using Another Spotify Account With Your Radio - TechniSat DIGITRADIO 580 Instruction Manual

6. The Connect icon will turn green to signify that your radio is now selected and being used for
audio playback.
7. Your Spotify app will only recognize your radio when the radio is connected to the internet (i.e.
in Internet Radio, Spotify Connect or Music player mode). To use Spotify when your radio is
in non-internet modes (i.e. in DAB, FM, CD, Bluetooth or Aux in mode) you need to select
Main menu > System settings > Network > Keep network connected > YES. This also
allows you to wake the radio from standby using your Spotify app.

or while out of the house, select 'NO' to avoid unnecessary energy consumption.

Controlling Spotify Connect

You can now control Spotify from the app like normal; search for and play your tracks, change the
volume and add to playlists even though playback is through your radio. The next time you open
the Spotify app, playback will continue through your radio.
Spotify Connect is a cloud-based service, therefore after activation on your radio, your
smartphone or tablet no longer needs to be on the same network to control audio playback.

Using another Spotify account with your radio

Your Spotify account details are now stored on your radio. To overwrite this with another Spotify
account, simply follow the activation steps again whilst running the Spotify app using your desired
account. Please remember that both your smartphone or tablet and your radio need to be on the
same network for the overwriting to occur.
