Audio / Video Outputs; Usb Connections; Activating Usb Mode - Escient FireBall FP-1 User Manual

Audio / vidEo outPuts

fireball has two audio and video output formats
and connectors including:
Audio
• Analog Audio
• Digital Optical Audio
video
• Component Video
• S-Video
All audio and video outputs are active at the same time, so you can use as many as you like without causing signal degradation.
The Digital Optical output will provide the best possible sound quality for the FireBall, but will require that your audio system has an available
Digital Optical input. The Analog Audio output is typically for any other system without Digital inputs.
The S-Video output will provide the best possible video quality for the FireBall User Interface, but will require that your video system has an
available S-Video input. The composite output is typically used for an a/v distribution system, such as the Xantech AV-61 or the Niles ZR-4630/8630
distribution systems.

The FP-1 has a USB type B port on the back panel for connecting the FP-1 to your PC or Mac so that you can sync your iPod with Apple iTunes
software. You will need an optional USB Type A to Type B cable, available at any electronics store or from your Escient dealer.

Activating USB Mode

To enable USB mode for syncing with your computer, press the power button on the remote or front panel until you see the front panel led turn
amber. This means it's in USB mode. If you have a USB cable connected from the FP-1 to your computer and a docked iPod, you will see your iPod
appear on your Desktop. Syncing your iPod is the same as if you connected it directly to your computer, using iTunes software.
