FAQ

Questions about Aha Radio (PCM only).

What do I need to be able to use

Aha Radio?

At present, Aha Radio is available on the

iOS

and Android

platforms. You need a

compatible smartphone (iOS

device with

iOS

5 or later, Android

device with Android

4.0 or later) and the Aha Radio app from the

respective market (App Store from Apple

Google Play

Store). After the app has been

installed on your smartphone, you will need

to set up a free personal account so that your

settings, including your customised list of

presets, can be saved.

Why do I need to register for an account on

the Aha Radio server to use online services?

The use of online services is a personalised

experience where customers can listen to the

music that suits their own taste. User-specific

settings are stored on the Aha Radio server

and the user data are updated in the app when

a connection to the server is established and

services are accessed from PCM. No data are

disclosed to third parties.

How do I download the Aha Radio app to my

Android

phone? How do I keep the app

up-to-date?

Like any other app, the Aha Radio app can be

downloaded from the Google Play

Store. After

you have answered the security questions and

created an account, you will be able to use Aha

Radio straight away. App update notifications

are also displayed automatically by the Android

system as with all other Android

apps.

With Android

devices, are there any

restrictions on the use of Aha Radio via

Bluetooth

connection?

Yes. To stream Aha Radio, Android

devices

need to be connected via the Handsfree Profile

(HFP). Where a connection is established via

the SIM Access Profile (SAP), the phone gives

up its network access rights to PCM and no

longer has the Internet connection of its own

that Aha Radio requires.

What do I need to know about how the Aha

Radio app starts on an Android

device?

The Aha Radio app starts automatically when

an A2DP connection is established (‘AUX BT

connected’) and then appears as a new source

under TUNER. Please note that it may be

necessary to start the app manually on the

mobile phone the first time it is used. At

subsequent system start-ups, the app will then

connect to PCM automatically. It should also

be noted that the AUX BT function on PCM may

have been deactivated. In this case, no connection

will be established successfully between PCM

and the Aha Radio app. Please activate AUX BT on

PCM under ‘MEDIA/OPTION/SET MEDIA/AUX’.

How do I download the Aha Radio app to

my iOS

device? How do I keep the app

up-to-date?

Like any other app, the Aha Radio app can

be downloaded from the App Store. After

you have answered the security questions

and created an account, you will be able

to use Aha Radio straight away. With iOS

app update notifications are also displayed

automatically via the App Store.

With iOS

devices, are there any

restrictions on the use of Aha Radio via

Bluetooth

connection?

Yes. Restrictions in the Apple operating

system unfortunately mean that the AUXBT

function needs to be deactivated where

iOS

devices are connected by cable. In this

case, music from the iPod

or Aha Radio is

streamed exclusively over cable.
