Product Control and Integration

DF Solutions Base and Link Media Servers offer a range of connectivity options, so you have the flexibility and option of controlling your equipment in a number of different ways.

A full mutizone module is available allowing you to control multiple Base and Link units from within a single unified interface. This slick interface offers full cover-art enabled audio-library browsing, advanced track/album/artist/genre search features and onscreen TV control.

The Base and Link are compatible with Ethernet-enabled 2-series Control Processors, offering audio-library browsing/selection/control, from any compatible Crestron panel.

RoomCommander for iPhone/iPod Touch is due for release mid May 2009. RoomCommander will give you whole-house control, browsing and controlling audio in every room of the house (when used with DF Solutions Base and Link products). Supporting cover-art enhanced browsing, and TV GUI control, there has never been a more convenient way of putting on music (Wifi connection required).

IR Remote

Each unit comes with an IR remote, which you can use to control the TV-interface.

The Base™ also offers independent I.R. control sets for audio-output, so outputs 1-17 can each be controlled individually.

Modules are now available for the Philips TSU9600/TSU9400, offering multi-zone TV control, and 2-way browsing of your entire audio library, with album cover-art.

The 1,2 or 5-zone Base™ Media Server offers full-integration with the Speakercraft multiroom system, so you can browse and control audio in up to 4-rooms using the Speakercraft Mode (and iPhone) keypad interfaces
