INTRODUCTION 

The 

Store and Forward (S&F)

 module 

allows PLAYER devices (Player ONE and Player ZERO) 

to download remote audio content to local storage media (USB/uSD).

 

When it is active, it checks a remote location that hosts audio content on a daily basis, compares 
it to the current content stored on local media (USB/uSD) and, if necessary (if differences are 
detected), syncs the local content to make it an exact copy of the remote content. This is a safe 
method of playing content on the device during working hours (during the day), storing it on local 
media without the risks associated with real-time streaming. 

The Store and Forward (S&F) utility for remotely synchronising music content uses the Rsync 
(Remote Sync) tool. 

This exemplified and orientative technical tutorial is intended for qualified IT personnel 

only.

 

 

The  third-party  tools  and  procedures  discussed  in  this  manual  are  for  information 

purposes only, and no support queries will be answered in relation to them. 

From now on in this tutorial, we will use the word 

PLAYER to refer both to Player ONE 

and to Player ZERO models.
