    Updating your ProFusion iH via CD

    Select ProFusion iH models can be updated via CD. It is important to update your device as soon as you receive any update CDs. Please note that customers with devices configured for Ethernet updates may still receive CD updates, and should load them as soon as they arrive.

    Always verify the update disc is clean and free of scratches, smudges and fingerprints. To clean a CD use a lint-free cotton cloth and wipe against the tracks, starting in the middle of the disc and wiping towards the outside of the disc. Do not wipe in a circular motion as this can create scratches.

    1. Please refer to the Regulatory and Safety Information sheet included with your player before proceeding.
    2. Adjust the volume of your speaker system down completely (off). Then, if necessary, power off and remove your existing media player.
    3. Unpack your Profusion iH device and place it in an area that allows for adequate ventilation space.
    4. Connect the cables in this order:
        • Step 1: Your ProFusion iH Player comes with a 3.5mm AUX to RCA audio cable. If your player is set up with 2 zones of audio, Zone 1 uses the white RCA plug and Zone 2 uses the red RCA plug. If you have only 1 zone of audio, you’ll only need to connect the white plug into your sound system. Note: Do not use the yellow plug on the RCA audio cable – you don’t need it for your audio. (The HDMI output only supports Zone 1 Audio playback.)
        • Step 2: Mood recommends you use an Ethernet cable to plug into your network for music updates. Plug one end of the Ethernet cable into the network port of the Profusion iH player and the other end into your network router/switch. Your Profusion iH player is designed to obtain new music updates overnight. Please refer to the Network Setup section below for additional network setup instructions.
        • Step 3: Plug the power adapter into the back of the Profusion iH and plug it in to an ‘always on’ outlet – The Profusion iH is energy efficient and optimized to run 24/7, so do not use an outlet that’s controlled by a switch or electrical timer. Be sure to only use the power adapter provided with the Profusion iH.
        • Step 4: Turn on your speaker system and increase the master volume in small increments until you reach your desired listening level. Please note that you may need to adjust your display or speaker volume to your preferred volume level.
        • Note: The Profusion iH does not support Bluetooth audio playback.
    5. Place the batteries in the back of the Profusion iH remote control.
    6. After 1-3 minutes, your music content should start to play automatically. If you do not hear audio, check your sound system to make sure it’s turned on and/or the volume is up at a hearable level.
      1. Connect an Ethernet cable into the Ethernet port on the back of the Profusion and to your internet router.
      2. Once the Ethernet cable is connected, the Link light on the front of the Profusion iH should illuminate solid green. (For advanced setups that require a Static IP address or Proxy, see the WiFi and Advanced Wired Setup below)
      3. If your Network light is not green, there may be an issue with the connection of your Ethernet cable. Please verify that both ends of the Ethernet cable are fully seated into their ports and that you’re plugged into an active Network port.
      1. 1. If your update contains multiple CDs, locate disc #1 (discs are labeled as 1 of 3, 2 of 3, etc).
      2. 2. Hold the CD face up and by the edges.
      3. 3. Press the DVD-ROM eject button to open the tray.
      4. 4. Insert the CD into the center of the DVD-ROM tray.
      5. 5. Push the tray in fully (it will remain latched when properly closed).
      6. 6. Approximately 15 seconds after the tray has closed, the update will automatically start. The update will take anywhere from 60 seconds to 10 minutes, depending on the type and size of content on the disc.
      7. 7. The DVD-ROM tray will automatically eject once the update has completed and the control panel will display the status of the update
Online control panel displays “Zone Stopped”
This message usually indicates that music program has not been selected for playback, or that no music is scheduled to play at the current time according to the selected dayparting schedule.

  • Reboot your ProFusion iH player by unplugging the power cable for 30 seconds and plugging it back in.
  • If the player is not set on a music schedule, select a program to play in the online control panel.
  • If a custom schedule is selected in the control panel, review the start and end times of each dayparting event in the custom schedule. There may be a silence gap in your schedule.

Online control panel displays “Error 33”
This error indicates that the Profusion is unable to locate a song file for the selected music program. When error 33 is encountered, music playback will stop. Your Profusion music updates may have been interrupted due to loss of internet connectivity to the player.

  • Reboot your ProFusion to restore music playback.
  • Verify that your player is set to its Default Audio Schedule in the Online Control Panel.
  • Verify your ProFusion is connected to the internet for updates either by WiFi or Ethernet connection.
  • Once your connection is verified, perform an “Update Music & Configuration” from the Online Control Panel.
  • Once your music player finishes downloading new updates, Error 33 should be resolved.
  • If you are still experiencing issues, please contact us.
Player screen displays “Machine Expired”
This message appears when:

  • The player has not been updated in the last 247 days, usually due to lack of internet connectivity or CD update.
  • The player has been inactivated for non-payment or service cancellation.

To resolve this issue, an unlock code must be provided to you by Mood Media Customer Support. Please Contact Us for further assistance.

My CD is not updating
After inserting an update disc into the CD tray, the green light on the CD tray should flash occasionally while the disc updates. The disc will automatically eject when the update is complete. Updates should take 1 to 60 minutes.

How do I know my player is updating correctly? The green light on the disc tray will occasionally flash. As long as this is happening, the CD is updating correctly.

How do I know my update completed successfully? The CD will eject automatically once the disc is finished loading.

Can I see the progress of the CD update? You can! Download the Mood Controller app on a mobile device through the Google Play Store or the Apple App Store to view current status of the update.
