Sonos
Sonos comprises a set of HiFi audio systems integrated with HSYCO via WiFi or Ethernet connection. A single SONOS I/O Server controls all the devices connected to the local network.

Communication
Just make sure the Sonos device is connected to the same local network as HSYCO server is.
HSYCO Configuration
Add a SONOS I/O Server in the I/O Servers section of the Settings and set its parameters:
High Availability
- Shutdown when inactive: defaults to false.
Options
ID | Default | Values | Description |
---|---|---|---|
startupevents | false | true | generate IO events also during the driver’s start-up phase |
false | start generating events only after HSYCO is aligned with the current status of the system | ||
localhost | <host_name> | the driver will use the specified host name (or IP address) as the local host name to be used by the players to send status notifications. If not specified the driver will select a random local address among the available ones. It is therefore recommended to specify one |
Datapoints
In the following table, replace <player> with the name assigned to a player. Names are transformed to lowercase and spaces are replaced by '-'. For instance, if the name assigned to a player is "Example Name", the <player> part of the corresponding datapoints will be "example-name".
