• Type the address of the RS250 into the address

The RS250 Browser interface has three submenus:
• OVERVIEW (see Figure 11)
• SETTINGS (see Figure 12)
• UPDATE (see Figure 13)
Click on the desired heading to enter that menu.
OVERVIEW Menu
The Overview menu provides the following
information about the RS250:
• Serial Number
• MAC Address
• Network IP Address
• Firmware versions
You can provide a Custom Name for the RS250. This
is the name that will display for available AirPlay
devices. If you wish to change the default name, type
the new name in the box and press Enter. If the name
was changed using the Apple Home app, the name
will not be able to be changed on the web page.
The Overview Menu provides an indicator for
the status of your Wi-Fi (WIFI enabled). When
enabled the indicator will show ON and be green.
An ethernet connection takes precedence and will
automatically disable Wi-Fi. Wi-Fi, if set up, will re-
engage when the ethernet cable is disconnected.
SETTINGS Menu
The Power Sleep Timer has two settings:
• ON (default)
• OFF
When the Power Sleep Timer is set to ON, the
RS250 will power o into a sleep state after
approximately 30 minutes of no sound or user input.
After 60 minutes of uninterrupted sleep, the RS250
will enter a Standby Mode. In this Standby Mode,
the Wi-Fi radio is powered o and the unit can not
be woken via the network. Standby Mode power
consumption is less than 0.5 watts.
If the Power Sleep Timer is set to OFF, the RS250
will power o into a sleep state after 30 minutes of
non-activity. The RS250 can be woken from sleep
by input from the network (or physically pushing
the Power Button). In a sleep state, the RS250 will
continue to work with devices congured to control
it in your Google Home collection.
The RS250 can be made to immediately enter a
sleep state by pressing and holding the Right Knob
for two seconds. If Power Sleep Timer is set to ON,
the RS250 will enter Standby Mode after 60 minutes
of uninterrupted sleep.
The Startup Volume Limit has two settings:
• ON
• OFF (default)
When the Startup Volume Limit is ON, upon power
loss or return to play from Sleep or Standby, the rst
playback of the product will start at a low volume
level. When switched to OFF, the product will
resume playback at the last volume level.
The Settings Menu allows you to change settings
for Wired and Wireless network connections.
HDMI and Opcal Gain Adjustment
Many video sources such as broadcast video to
television sets have sound levels that are lower than
typical music sources. Because of this, a volume boost
has been added to the HDMI input making it louder.
The ability to adjust the volume boost of the Optical
input has been added so that the Optical input could be
boosted as needed.
To adjust the volume boost:
• Go to HDMI or Optical input (whichever you
wish to adjust).
• With a typical source playing, adjust the
volume to a midpoint level.
• Rotate the knob located on the rear panel right
side (when looking from the front), and rotate
to achieve the desired output level. Choose this
level to be approximately the same as what you
would experience on another input. When you
have achieved the desired level, release the
adjustment knob. This trim level will be recalled
for the HDMI or Optical input whenever
selected. Note: you may independently set the
trim for HDMI and Optical input. One will not
aect the other.
These settings can be changed at any time.

To view the RS250’s browser interface, you will need

There are several ways to nd a device’s IP address. For
