Pro-Ject Remote Box S Dear music lover, thank you for purchasing the Pro-Ject Audio Remote Box S. In order to achieve maximum performance and reliability, you should study this instruction manual carefully. Hazard warning for the user, the unit or possible misuse Important notice With the Remote Box S and the free Pro-Ject Box Control app you are able to control all Pro-Ject units with a infrared remote control via WLAN. The Box Control app is available for iOS units, e.g.
Front panel Remote Box S There are no controls on the front panel of the Remote Box S. The four small transparent blue plastic domes in the middle are the outlets for the very powerful infrared transmitter integrated into the unit. The opening to the right of them contains the infrared receiver necessary for programming the control codes of devices from other manufacturers into the system. Suggestions for placement The Remote Box S can be positioned at the same place as the hi-fi system.
Start of the configuration The program window „WLAN Config“ opens and you see your Remote Box S as list item (“WiFi Controller”, see picture). Choose it by clicking on this line and the click on “Configure”, to start the configuration for WLAN access of the Remote Box S. Search for your WLAN The window „WLAN Device Configuration“ opens (see picture). Click on “Search” in the upper right corner to start the search for a wireless network. A small window „Reading WLAN-Status“ opens.
Operation of the Remote Box S with the App „Box Control“ The app „Box Control“ is available for Apple- and Android devices in the respective app stores free of charge. For their use access of the respective Apple- or Android devices to the same wireless network as the Remote Box is necessary. Attention: The app can’t be used, if the Remote Box S wasn’t configured before as described above! Initial start of the app At the first start of the app, the setup wizard comes up automatically.
You can skip the next two pages „Select your Media Library“ (left picture) and „Select your Media Player“ (right picture) by tapping on “skip”. They refer to the configuration of Pro-Ject Stream Box devices only. Selection of the devices to be controlled In the next window, „Select your Remote Controls“ select (see right) the devices you want to control with the app and tap on “next”. Now the setup is complete.
Getting started with the app The setup wizard closes and you see the start page of the app (see right). For each of the devices you selected in the step before, a control page was created. It’s symbolized with a light dot in the black bar at the bottom. The dot of the control page that you actually see is shown lighter than the others. The symbol on the rightmost side is for the settings menu. You can change between the control windows with a simple wipe on the display to the left or right.
Programming of remote commands If you selected command windows for devices not made by Pro-Ject, you have to program the desired commands by yourself. The example shows a television control (left picture). To program IR commands, tap on the padlock in the upper right to open it. Then tap on the control item you want to program, e.g. “Menu”. Now an insert (right picture) asks you to press the respective key on the original remote controller. Aim the controller at the Remote Box S during this.
Settings menu The symbol at the rightmost side of the black bar is for the settings menu (left picture). The menu items „Streaming“ and „Volume Control“ are only necessary for the configuration of the Pro-Ject Stream Box devices. List of command windows In „Remotes“ you find a list of all available command windows (right picture). Those with a check mark are already active. You can activate more windows simply by tapping on the respective squares, so that a check mark appears.
General Settings The menu item „General“ of the settings menu allows some general configurations: „Setup Wizard“ starts the setup process all over again, “Restore” brings the app to the factory default condition. In both cases all programmed IR commands and all settings are irrevocably lost.
