Setup
Installing the streamer should only take a few minutes, and can be done through any
device that is running the Presto Music app and has Bluetooth. Alternatively, if you are
using a computer you can connect to your home network using the WPS button on the
streamer box. You only need to do it once, and when the streamer is recognised on
your Wi-Fi network you will be able to control it through multiple devices, as long as
they are connected to your network. The streamer takes data directly from your Wi-Fi
network, meaning that the devices are only used to control it.
Option 1 - Aux-Out to Amplier
Use the 3.5mm jack on the streamer to connect to one of your amplier’s line inputs,
using the cable provided (or your own equivalent cable). The input on your amplier
could be labelled ‘Audio in’, ‘Auxiliary In’, or ‘Aux In’, or you could use inputs labelled as
CD, Radio, TV audio.
Note: Please be cautious if using an input designed for a record player/turntable,
which might be labeled ‘Phono’, as these are often designed to boost the low-level
signal from record players, and could potentially damage your amplier.
Option 2 - Optical-Out to DAC (Digital to Analogue Converter)
Remove the square cover from the optical port on the streamer and connect the
optical cable (or your own equivalent) to your DAC. The optical cable may come with a
small plastic cap which should be removed.
Connect the USB cable to the plug provided and connect your streamer to the mains
power (you should now see a ashing blue light on the front centre of the streamer,
initially quite fast and then a bit slower).
Connecting the streamer to your home Wi-Fi network
The following step only needs to be done once for the streamer. Once this step is done
all installations of the app on dierent devices and computers will be able to see and
control the streamer.
If you have an iOS or Android device we strongly advise using this method to set up.
VERY IMPORTANT - Before proceeding past this point, ensure that:
• Bluetooth is switched on in your device.
• Your phone is connected to your home Wi-Fi network and not running o a
mobile data (eg. 3G, 4G or 5G) connection.
• The Streamer is powered on and ashing blue (at a rate on 1 ash per second).
1. Download the Presto Music streaming app, which is available in the Apple and
Android app stores.
2. Open the app and log in using your existing Presto Music account details (email and
password) - if you do not already have an account you can create one at this point.
3. Click on Settings cog in the top right corner.
4. Next to Streamer click ‘Add’, then click ‘Continue’.
5. Select ‘Music Streamer’.
6. Select your wireless network and enter your Wi-Fi password.
7. Wait whilst your streamer connects to your network (probably 20-30 seconds).
Success is indicated by a solid blue light on the streamer, and a message in the
app prompting you to rename your streamer. You can give it a new name or leave
it blank, in which case it will be named simply ‘Streamer’. You can rename it later if
you choose to do so.
8. Updating the rmware on the streamer: Upon successful installation, the app may
prompt you to upgrade the rmware on your streamer. It is important that you do
this to update the streamer with the latest version - it will only take a few minutes.
Make sure the streamer is not disconnected during this procedure.
9. If you turned on Bluetooth specically for the the setup you can now turn it o again.
10. You can switch the audio output between the device and the streamer in the
settings menu.
