). Follow the instructions to download and

configure the software.

on page 12 and the Crestron Sync help file for
more information.

starting Crestron Sync for the first time, right-click inside the “Crestron
Sync” window and click Add New Device.

c. Enter a name for the device, e.g., My iServer. (This is not the name of

e. Click OK to add the device to the “Crestron Sync” window.

Test a sync operation. If syncing a large library with an empty iPod, the

connected to the PC hosting iTunes. Subsequent minor updates can be
done with the iPod in the CEN-ISERVER using the Crestron Sync
application.
