Beschreibung

The Barix Exstreamer 200 / 205 is a versatile network audio decoder for multi-room distributed audio system. It enables users to create flexible, cost-effective distributed audio systems using standard IP technology.

The Barix Exstreamer 200 / 205 plays MP3 (soon also G.711 & PCM) audio files from PC or web server (http) as well as legacy digital and analog sources (using the Barix Instreamer) and streams from sources like Shoutcast, Icecast (Internet radio) or RTP servers (Instreamer).The integrated 2 x 25 Watt amplifier delivers audio directly to speakers.

The device is easily controlled by a standard web browser and with the optional Barix IR remote control.With serial and Ethernet control APIs, the device can also be managed from typical automation systems. Installing the Barix Exstreamer 200 / 205 is fast and simple due to its unique features - SonicIP and IPzator:The device announces its IP address over the audio output after power-up!

Common Applications
- Playing audio from PC, jukebox applications, flash memory
- Multiroom or multizone distributed audio systems
- Commercial audio streaming applications (airports, hotels, etc.)
- Realtime audio bridging over IP (when used with the Instreamer)
- Paging and announcement applications
- Instore audio distribution (realtime) for retail, restaurants, franchises

Integration & application development
The Barix Exstreamer 200 / 205 supports various control and communication modes. Software developers can easily write audio applications using one of the openly documented Ethernet (cgi,TCP, UDP) or serial interfaces (API). A fully programmable ABCL firmware version is available on request. ABCL stands for Audio Barix Control Languange and is a simple to use yet powerful Basic dialect (see separate data sheet).

Streaming Client Firmware
For commercial applications a firmware with WMA and MP3 support, automatic failover (up to 3 URL’s / playing from USB memory) and monitoring capabilities is available (see separate data sheet).
