Listening To Your Ipod Player - NAD M15 HD Owner's Manual

The M15 HD is equipped with a data port in the rear panel where an
optional "NAD IPD Dock for iPod" (NAD IPD) can be plugged in. With the
NAD IPD linking the M15 HD with your own iPod player, you can enjoy
listening to your favorite tracks and playlists as well as view applicable still
image and video playback.
You can control your iPod player using the assigned buttons in the M15 HD
front panel. And with the corresponding HTRM remote control function
keys, you can select the materials stored in your iPod for playback as well
as access many of its functions even from across the room. The optional
NAD IPD also charges your iPod player while it is connected to the M15 HD.
