Introducing the LEVITON Dock
The LEVITON Dock is a product that allows you to access music and other content on an iPod, iPod
Touch, or iPhone using IP enabled devices, such as LEVITON OmniTouch 5.7e and 10pe
Touchscreens, and Hi-Fi2 audio distribution systems. The LEVITON Dock connects over a wired or
wireless LAN network. When used with a supported audio distribution system, an iPod that is connected
to a LEVITON Dockbecomes an audio source that can be played in any audio zone in the house.
Using a LEVITON OmniTouch 5.7e, 10p, or 10pe Touchscreen, you can browse and make music
selections by Playlists, Artists, Albums, Songs, Podcasts, Genres, Composers, and Audiobooks. Album
art and other music metadata are displayed with each selection.
Features
Works with OmniTouch 5.7e and 10pe Touchscreens when combined with a LEVITON controller and
supported audio distribution system (e.g. LEVITON Hi-Fi or Hi-Fi2, NuVo, Russound, Xantech,
Speakercraft, or Proficient).
Works standalone with Hi-Fi2 audio distribution systems. VSC keypads will display iPod metadata (artist,
album, and track) and allows for control commands (play, pause, next track, and previous track) at the VSC
keypad.
LEVITON Dock sends iPod metadata and album artwork to IP enabled devices, such as LEVITON
OmniTouch 5.7e and 10pe.
IP enabled devices can send control commands (play, pause, stop, next track, previous track, rewind, fast
forward, next chapter, previous chapter, etc.) to an iPod that is docked in the LEVITON Dock.
LEVITON Dock allows IP enabled devices to navigate and browse the music library on the iPod by Playlists,
Artists, Albums, Songs, Podcasts, Genres, Composers, and Audiobooks.
Connects to an existing wired 10/100 LAN network or wireless 802.11 b/g (on supported LEVITON Dock
models) network.
Up to 8 LEVITON Docks can be connected and controlled on a network.
