Product Overview
Perkins Innovation PCD-FDE1 provides direct access and
remote control of a Russound multiroom audio system
from an Apple iPhone, iPod touch, iPad, or Android based
device. PCD-FDE1 allows for two-way remote control of
any zone in a Russound RNET® enabled multiroom audio
system and provides real time display of system and
source information. The unit also provides full integration
with the Russound DMS-3.1 Digital Media Streamer, and
MyRussound App™ supporting cover art with real time
meta-data display on older, non-RIO™ based Russound
controllers.
The PCD-FDE1 consists of an interface device for
integration between the local area network and the
Russound multiroom audio system. Control is performed
using the My Russound App™ which is available on Google
Play as well as the App Store. Confi guration is done via
a cloud-based Web confi guration tool, streamlining the
setup process.
Setup on the PCD-FDE1 is easily accomplished via cloud
based confi guration utility. The confi guration utility can
be accessed via Apple iPhone, iPod touch, iPad, or Android
based device. Any standard PC can also be used for this
process. This tool is available 24 hours per day and may
be accessed from any location. An Internet connection is
required.
