iPort FS-21 and FS-22 Instruction Manual
Introduction
The iPort®FS-21 and FS-22 are free-standing docking systems
that allow an Apple iPod®or iPhone®to become part of a
whole-home audio system, and/or be used as a source in a
variety of local audio systems. You can place the iPort dock on
a desk, table, or other convenient location — allowing quick
and easy docking of an iPod — and connect it to both your
audio/video system and your computer. By pressing a single button on the iPort, you can change the
iPod from the streaming (listening) mode to the music transfer mode, letting you
transfer content from your computer to the iPod.
Before installing and using the iPort, please read and follow all of the instructions in this manual carefully.

Selecting a Location for the iPort Dock
The iPort FS-21 and FS-22 are designed for use in normal interior environments. When selecting a
location for the system, please consider the following:
• Do not use the iPort outside or in a humid or wet environment. The iPort is not waterproof, nor is
it water-resistant.
• Avoid placing the iPort dock in direct sunlight as it can interfere with IR operation.
iPort Connections and Controls
STATUS INDICATOR:Whenever an iPod is docked, the Status Indicator glows
white
and iPort enters the
Music Stream (listening) mode.
FUNCTION SELECTOR:Pressing the Function Selector switches the iPort to the Data Transfer mode and
the Status Indicator glows
red
. Data can then be transferred from the computer to the iPod. To switch
back to the Music Stream mode, eject the iPod from your computer via iTunes. (The iPort will not switch
back to the listening mode while data is being transferred from the computer to the iPod.) iPhone and
iPod touch models with firmware older than version 2.0 need to be undocked and re-docked to go back
into the listening mode.
Note: The iPort does not output audio or video while in the Data Transfer mode.

iPort FS-21 and FS-22 Instruction Manual
The iPort FS-21 and FS-22 systems’ unbalanced audio and video outputs are designed for use in a
local-zone system where the audio/video equipment is located less than 25 feet from the iPort.
For longer distances, use the iPort Balanced Audio Kit (part #70122, not included) and Balanced
Video Kit (part #70123, not included). The Balanced Audio Kit allows the iPort to connect to audio
equipment located up to 500 feet away; the Balanced Video Kit allows the iPort to connect to video
equipment located up to 250 feet away. For more information about connecting the iPort to a long-
distance audio/video system, see the instruction manuals included with the Balanced Audio and
Balanced Video kits.
Connecting the iPort to a Local-Zone Audio/Video System
Connect the iPort dock to the computer and audio/video components as shown in
Figure 3
:
1. Connect the included Audio Cable to the iPort’s Audio Output and to a source input on the
audio system.
2. Connect the iPort’s Video Output to an input on the video monitor:
• If the video monitor has a component video input, set the iPort’s Video Selector switch in the DOWN
position (see
Video Selector
, on page 5), and connect the included Component Video Cable.
• If the video monitor does not have a component video input, set the iPort’s Video Selector
switch in the UP position (see
Video Selector
, on page 5) and use the available combination
Composite/S-Video cable (part #70120, not included). If the video monitor has an S-Video
input, connect the cable’s S-Video plug. If the monitor has a composite video input, connect
the cable’s RCA plug.
3. Use a USB 2.0 cable (not included) to connect the iPort’s USB 2.0 connector to the USB port of the
computer containing the iTunes application.
4. Connect a mono 3.5mm-to-3.5mm cable (not included) to the iPort’s IR Control Input and to the
IR control output of a compatible 3rd-party IR control system.
5. (IPORT FS-22 ONLY): Connect the included RS-232 Extended Control Cable to the iPort’s RS-232
Control Input and to the RS-232 control output of a compatible 3rd-party RS-232 control system.

iPort FS-21 and FS-22 Instruction Manual
Docking and Undocking an iPod
Docking
Insert the dock adapter that was included with your iPod all the way into the iPort well
(see
Figure 4
). Once inserted, the dock adapter can remain in the well.
To dock the iPod, gently slide it down into the iPort well, as shown in
Figure 5
. Do not force the iPod
down into the well as you may damage the multi-pin connector in the iPort base.
Undocking
Undock the iPod only when the iPort Status Indicator is
white
, indicating that the iPort is in the Music
Stream (listening) mode. To undock the iPod while the Status Indicator is
red
(iPort is in the Data
Transfer mode), you should eject the iPod from the computer via iTunes. See
Status Indicator
and
Function Selector
on page 4, for more information.
If you undock the iPod while the Status Indicator is red, Apple computers and PC computers
running Windows (other than Windows XP) will display an error message. (Windows XP permits ‘hot’
connection/disconnection via USB.) When you re-dock the iPod, there will be a slight delay before
you can use it while the iPort software re-synchronizes with the iPod. See
Status Indicator
and
Function Selector
on page 4 for more information.
