• For the latest information for connectable
iPod/iPhone models, see the Fostex website.
• If your iPod/iPhone is not listed above, see
“Connecting an old iPod/iPhone” described
below.
Connect the USB (type A) port of the HP-P1 to your
iPod/iPhone using the supplied Dock Connector to
USB cable.
When the HP-P1 is connected to your iPod/iPhone
and the iPod/iPhone recognizes the HP-P1, the dis-
play of the iPod/iPhone can show the HP-P1 infor-
mation as below.

<Note>:If the display of your iPod/iPhone does
not show the HP-P1 information as above, see
“Connecting an old iPod/iPhone” described be-
low.
<Memo>:
• When the HP-P1 is turned on, the headphone
jack of the connected iPod/iPhone is dis-
abled.
• When the analog input jack is plugged in,
the iPod/iPhone signal is not output from the
HP-P1 (the analog input signal takes priority
over the iPod/iPhone signal).
Connecting an old iPod/iPhone
Some iPod/iPhone does not recognize the HP-P1
when it is connected to the HP-P1 using the sup-
plied Dock Connector to USB cable.
In such a case, the display of the iPod/iPhone
shows the following message.
The.currently.attached.
accessory.is.not.supported.
by.this.iPod
In this case, the iPod/iPhone audio signal cannot
be sent to the HP-P1 via the Dock Connector to
USB cable.
To send the iPod/iPhone audio signal to the HP-P1,
two methods are available.
(1) Connect the headphone output jack of the iPod/
iPhone to the analog input jack of the HP-P1.

(2) Connect the Dock connector of the iPod/iPhone
to analog input jack of the HP-P1 using a “Dock

the market.

• With method (1) above, the iPod/iPhone digital
signal is sent to the HP-P1 via the iPod/iPhone
headphone amplier. On the other hand, with meth-
od (2), the iPod/iPhone digital signal is directly sent
to the HP-P1 (the iPod/iPhone headphone amplier
is bypassed).
