Using the iD50

Connecting the Unit to Power Source

Connect the AC adaptor cable plug into the DC jack on the back of the system, then plug the AC cord of the AC adaptor

into the wall outlet. Adaptor must be plugged in to operate unit. The unit does not operate on battery (a battery back up

system maintains clock settings during power failures).

Updating your iD50 firmware

For best performance, make sure to update the iD50 firmware. To do so, download the free iHome Set app from the App

Store. Launch the app, scroll to “Search for Update”, then follow directions to update the firmware.

Turning the Unit ON or OFF

Press the Power/App Button on the unit at any time to turn the unit On or Off. Note that a docked iPad, iPhone or iPod

will continue to charge when the unit is turned off as long as the AC adaptor is plugged in. iPod Classic (1G and 2G) will

not charge.

Setting the Clock Time Using AutoSync

The AutoSync feature allows you to sync the time setting on the unit to the time on your iPad, iPhone or recent model iPod

(iPod touch, iPod nano and iPod Classic; older iPod models such as iPod mini do not support this feature).

1. Press and hold the Clock Button located on the top of the unit for 2 seconds. “AUTOSYNC ON” flashes on the display and

a beep sounds. The unit will now autosync every time a capable iPhone/iPod or iPad is docked, and at 2AM each day. To

turn auto sync off, press and release the ◄ or ► Button while AUTOSYNC ON is flashing until “AUTOSYNC OFF appears.

2. Once sync is completed, “TIME UPDATED” appears on the display followed by 2 beeps indicating time sync is complete.

The updated time will appear on the display.

3. If sync was not successful, “SYNC FAILED” will appear on the display and a long beep will sound. If this happens, please

try again, with a different iPhone or iPod if needed. If sync still fails, please see Setting Clock Manually below to set the

clock.

NOTE: iPhone time is automatically updated to the correct time via cell phone towers. The time on your iPad or iPod is

accurate only to the time on the computer the last time the iPad/iPod was synced to it. It’s possible to have up to 59 seconds

difference between the unit and synced iPhone/iPod.
