Network Player Users manual 2 H S I L G N E NP30 Your music + our passion Introduction Thank you for purchasing your Sonata NP30 Network Music Player. We are condent that you will enjoy many years of listening pleasure from it. Like all Cambridge Audio products the Sonata NP30 adheres to three core principles stunning performance, ease of use and incredible value. The Sonata NP30 can access a wide range of audio from UPnP servers or local media and directly from the internet such as from our own Uuvol Internet Radio service or Streaming Services from other suppliers. The free UuVol Radio service brings the best iRadio stations to your NP30 checked by us for reliability and sound quality with over 15,000 stations currently available and more being added each day. Our UuVol.com website allows you to suggest new stations, manage your favourites and other settings for several UuVol enabled devices at once, nd out about new features and Streaming Services as we add them and more. See UuVol.com for more details. Streaming Services are services that come from partner suppliers. These usually require a subscription from them with different services being available in different countries. In addition to pure internet content you can access your own locally stored music from USB ash-disks or hard-drives and network connected UPnP servers. Various compressed formats are supported plus losslessly compressed and uncompressed PCM/WAV up to 'better-than-CD' 24 bit content at 24/96 which can be obtained from suitable download sites. Podcasts are also supported. High quality components are used throughout including a WM8728 24 bit /

96kHz digital to analog converter (DAC) from renowned manufacturer Wolfson. A proprietary audio buffering and re-clocking scheme re-constructs all incoming audio clocks inside the NP30 with a set of precision oscillators eliminating jitter and providing unprecedented sound quality. The Sonata NP30 also features an environmentally friendly low power (<1w) standby circuit. We have also developed a free iPhone/iPod Touch application that allows full wireless control of the NP30 (in conjunction with a Wi-Fi network). Search for UuVol Remote on the Apple App Store or browse www.UuVol.com for further details on this and other Apps and features as they become available. Ultimate sound quality depends on the whole of your system, naturally we particularly recommend speakers from the Cambridge Audio Sirocco range as these have been designed to the same exacting standards as this product. Your dealer can also supply excellent quality Cambridge Audio interconnects to ensure your system realises its full potential. Thanks for taking the time to read this manual; we do recommend you keep it for future reference.

Plug Fitting Instructions (UK only) The cord supplied with this appliance is factory tted with a UK mains plug tted with a 3 amp fuse inside. If it is necessary to change the fuse, it is important that a 3 amp one is used. If the plug needs to be changed because it is not suitable for your socket, or becomes damaged, it should be cut off and an appropriate plug tted following the wiring instructions below. The plug must then be disposed of safely, as insertion into a mains socket is likely to cause an electrical hazard. Should it be necessary to t a 3-pin BS mains plug to the power cord the wires should be tted as shown in this diagram. The colours of the wires in the mains lead of this appliance may not correspond with the coloured markings identifying the terminals in your plug. Connect them as follows:

The wire which is coloured BLUE must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter 'N' or coloured BLACK. The wire which is coloured BROWN must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter 'L' or coloured RED. The wire which is coloured GREEN/YELLOW must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter 'E' or coloured GREEN. If a standard 13 amp (BS 1363) plug is used, a 5 amp fuse must be tted, or if any other type of plug is used a 5 amp fuse must be tted, either in the plug or adaptor, or on the distribution board. 5 Rear panel connections 1 Power On Off Power AC 2 Designed and engineered in London, England Sonata NP30 Network Player Power Rating: 100-230V AC ~ 50/60Hz Rated Power Consumption: 21W www.cambridge-audio.com 3 4 USB 5 7 8 Trigger In Digital Outputs Audio Out For local media 12V Tip +ve L R Ethernet 6 S/P DIF Co-axial Toslink Optical Power On/Off Wireless antenna 1 Switches the unit on or off.

Here we have attempted to give an overview of the various types of service available and the terminology you may encounter. UuVol/UuVol Radio UuVol is Cambridge Audios evolving platform for streaming client devices. It incorporates amongst other things UuVol Radio our Internet Radio service checked for broadcast reliability and quality and UuVol.com our website/portal. The portal aspect of our website is the mechanism that allows transparent connection (and update) of all UuVol enabled units to the various services. The website is our visible presence at www.UuVol.com which amongst other things allows you to also browse and play back the same stations from an internet connected PC and manage your presets and other preferences for your UuVol client products. You can also add stations to your units that are currently not in the UuVol database, suggest new stations to us and more. There are also links and help for setting up third-party Streaming Services from a wide variety of other suppliers. Other UuVol features will be launched in the future, check the website from time to time to see the latest developments. Streaming Services Streaming Services are similar to Internet Radio but come from other suppliers and often have an element of interaction with the user. Because Streaming Services generally allow the user some choice over the content they listen to, they are also licensed differently to iRadio by the music companies and often each service only has arrangements in certain countries and may also charge a subscription for membership. Examples of such services are Last.FM, Pandora, Rhapsody, Napster and others. All allow some control of the content from 'play me something that sounds like U2' to the ability to select and play whole albums of your choice. Some also offer the ability to download content for use off-line as well. The NP30 supports many of these services, navigate to Streaming Services on the unit for a list or even better check out our portal at UuVol.com for more details of which services are available in your area, what they do and how to sign up. These services come from third parties and although we support connections to them they do not come from us and we are not responsible for their service in any way. Your account will be with the service, we are merely acting as a portal to make the connection simpler and more convenient plus we support the correct software on our unit to allow playback and browsing of their content. Network Media The NP30 supports a wide range of compressed formats; MP3, AAC, WMA and Ogg Vorbis CODEC types are all supported, plus for true audiophile use it also supports either uncompressed PCM (in a WAV container) or losslessly compressed FLAC, both can contain from 16 bits 44.1kHz from CDs right up to 24 bit / 96kHz for better than CD quality from suitable download sites. Note:For this to work your server will also need to support the CODEC you wish to play as some have limitations and may not serve FLAC for instance. Always check that the server you wish to use also supports your favoured CODECs. Also for lossless/uncompressed formats both the server and network connection will need to sustain the high bitrate necessary. Note:It is not recommended to use Wi-Fi connections for content above 16 bits 44.1/48kHz if lossless/uncompressed. Local Media The NP30 also supports local media from USB Flash-disks or USB hard-drives and has two USB1.1 ports for this purpose. Here the NP30 simply browses the folders present on the media attached and displays them. Only content that the NP30 can play will be shown. This feature is provided for convenient access to temporary storage devices. It is however highly recommended that UPnP is used for continued use of stored media as the UPnP system is able to support album art, sophisticated content browsing and ltering and other features not possible with simple folder browsing. Note: Currently only the FAT32 le system is supported. Podcasts Podcasts are archived audio recordings downloadable over the internet. Often podcasts are recordings of previous live broadcasts or episodic content. The NP30 supports various third party podcast services, navigate to Podcasts on the unit for the list available in your area. In addition the NP30 supports your own personal choice of podcasts where you know its URL (weblink) via the UuVol portal, see later section. Getting connected Basic connections NP30 H S I L G N E Sonata AR30/DR30+

Network connections Before you can use your NP30 for iRadio/Streaming you must have the following:

A broadband internet connection (such as ADSL) to a suitable internet service provider (ISP). A network connection either wirelessly via 802.11b/g or n Wi-Fi or wired Ethernet connection (10 or 100 M bits/sec via an RJ45 connection). Note: If you wish to play 24/48 or 24/96 content from a UPnP server, a wired Ethernet connection will be required as the high data rate of these les is beyond most Wi-Fi networks capability. In many cases the broadband modem, router and wireless access point will be a single combined unit supplied by your Internet Service Provider or bought from a computer store. If your wireless network is congured to use Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) or Wi-

Fi Protected Access (WPA) data encryption then you will need to know your WEP or WPA key so you can get the NP30 to communicate with the network. IMPORTANT:

Before you continue, make sure that your wireless access point or router is powered up and working with your broadband internet service (use your computer to verify this). To get this part of the system working you must read the instructions supplied with the wireless access point or router. The NP30 can be congured to connect to a Wired or Wireless network or has a (default) Auto setting. In Auto the NP30 looks for a each connection type and selects whichever is present. You can also force the unit to one or the other connection type, see later Settings section. Connecting to a wired network Plug one end of a network cable (Category 5/5E straight through Ethernet cable) into the LAN port on the back of the unit. Internet Ethernet cable Broadband Router/Modem Note: Only connect the LAN port of the player to an Ethernet port that supports 10BASE-T or 100BASE-TX. Connecting to any other ports or jacks, such as a phone jack, can damage the unit The NP30 should automatically connect to your network as below via DHCP;

this means it will be given an IP address by your router automatically. 9 Getting connected cont. Connecting to a wireless network Place the NP30 in range of your wireless network (usually 10-30m of a suitable wireless transmitter, although this is affected by walls and the construction of your building) and turn it on, via the back panel switch and then on the front panel. Internet 10-30m distance Wireless broadband Router/Modem The NP30 will automatically connect and obtain an IP address from your wireless network. For advanced users, if you would like to give your NP30 a static IP address, then see the 'Network cong' section of the manual. Note: If you make a mistake at any point, you can always press the button to go back to the previous screen. The unit will now scan for all available wireless networks and will display Scanning. If it cant nd one then the display will say: No Wireless Networks Found. If this happens then you need to either move the NP30 nearer your wireless access point or investigate if there is an issue with your wireless network. When the NP30 nds your wireless network, it displays the broadcast name

(ESSID) for the access point this is a name allocated to the access point by whoever set up the network, it may either be a default name for your router/wireless or may be a more familiar name such as Johns Wi-Fi etc. If your NP30 nds more than one wireless network you can simply choose which one you want to connect to. Turn the rotary dial to see the ESSID for each wireless network. When the ESSID for the wireless network you want to connect to is displayed on the screen, press the SELECT button. If your network is not congured with an encryption code, the screen should say Connecting to network then Network OK. If the screen displays either Enter WEP key or Enter WPA key, then the network is using one of the supported encryption systems: Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) or Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA). You now need to enter your correct WEP or WPA code. The person who set up the wireless network in the rst place will know what this code is (or be able to reset it to a new known code); if that person is not you, then you need to nd out what it is. After 3 seconds, the display goes into the code entry mode. To enter the code, use the rotary dial to select each character of the code in turn, pressing the SELECT button after entering each character. Note:The WEP and WPA codes are case sensitive, so you must enter them exactly. After entering the nal character, use the rotary dial to select the character and press the SELECT button. Its a little ddly but you will only need to do this once. The NP30 will remember this code and use it automatically from now on. The unit should now be able to connect to the network. 10 button. Operating the NP30 The NP30 home menu consists of 5 items:

UuVol Radio Streaming Services Media Podcasts Settings These allow acess to the four basic types of media choice plus a Settings menu for the unit. You can return to this menu at any time by pressing the Simply scroll through the items with the scroll wheel or navigator buttons on the remote control and press in the scroll wheel or use the select button on the remote to select the item you want. Uuvol Radio The UuVol Radio service brings thousands of internet radio stations to you. The sheer choice available on the internet allows you to nd new music, listen to stations in your native language (or perhaps if you are learning another one), from your home town or by your Genre of choice. It has to be said that the audio quality of internet radio varies greatly dependant on the bitrate and compression technology used by the broadcaster, but the choice more than makes up for this. UuVol Radio allows you to explore and nd new music from all over the world. Note: As an 'aggregator' service we are simply organising the browsing and connection process for these stations so that you dont have to manually search for them or type in any URLs (web links) etc to access them. Whilst we regularly check the stations to make sure they are still transmitting reliably and in reasonable quality we are not responsible for their content in any way. As well as the thousands of stations we offer if you want to listen to a particular station that is not included in our service you can add it via UuVol portal at UuVol.com, see later section. You can also visit the UuVol.com portal on the web and put in a request suggesting new stations for us to add to the service. We welcome your feedback. It is not necessary to register your NP30 to use the free UuVol service but by registering you will be able to edit settings on your NP30 via your own portal on our website, manage your presets, set up new 3rd party Streaming Services and more. How to use Uuvol Radio button to return to the top-level menu. Press the Select UuVol Radio from the list using the rotary dial then press the rotary dial to select it. The NP30 displays the following submenus. UuVol Radio Location Genre Search You can now turn the rotary dial to choose from Location, Genre or Search. Location Enables you to choose from the stations in any of the countries which you choose from a list. Genre Enables you to choose radio stations according to their declared content, for example Classic Rock, Sport, News, etc. Search Enables you to search for a station you know the name of. Enter the full name or rst part of the name for your desired station. The NP30 will bring up a list of all stations that contain a word that starts with your search term. Note: Although we check the stations for continuity of service, some radio stations do not broadcast 24 hours per day, and some stations may not always be on-line. Registering your NP30 with the UuVol portal on the web To access extra features on your NP30 such as linking premium streaming services to your NP30, adding non-UuVol internet radio stations or simply editing, copying, re-ordering or deleting presets rst you will need to set up a free account with UuVol. Open www.UuVol.com from an Internet browser. Click on the 'Register' link and follow the on-screen instructions to set up an account and to link your NP30 to this new account by entering your NP30s seven digit registration code, which can be found in the 'Settings > Register' menu of the NP30 itself. After creating and logging into your new account, you can now add, remove or re-order presets on your NP30 from the 'Presets' tab. There is also an enhanced internet radio station search facility, allowing you to search for stations by minimum bit rate, etc and also the facility to add non-

UuVol internet radio stations as presets if you know the stations URL. To add further NP30s to your existing UuVol account (perhaps you want a second or third NP30 in a different room) then this can be done by accessing the Players tab in UuVol and clicking on the Add a player link. You can then choose to copy all or some of the existing presets from your current NP30 to the new one. This is a unique code generated by the unit during the registration process. Note the key lasts for about 10 minutes, if you dont use it in that time you will need to exit and re-enter this menu to get a new key. Your NP30 is now registered and you can use the portal to manage your presets, Podcasts and more. You can also suggest new stations to us, setup 3rd party Streaming Services and view information from us on new products. Note: You can register as many products as you like and manage the presets etc. across several products which could be in different parts of the world all seamlessly from your UuVol portal. Streaming Services The NP30 supports a range of streaming services from other suppliers that often have an element of interaction with the user. The NP30 displays the following submenus. Streaming Services Aupeo!

Live365 MP3tunes Etc. Note: The services available vary depending on your geographical location. Because Streaming Services generally allow the user some choice over the content they listen to they are licensed differently to iRadio by the music companies and often each service only has arrangements is certain countries. They may also charge a subscription for membership. Examples of such services are Last.FM, Pandora, Rhapsody, Live365, Mp3Tunes and others. When you enter this menu the ones that are available to you in your country will be shown. Those that are free to use or have a free to use version will work

'straight out of the box' Others will guide you to the relevant sign up page, should you so wish. For more details on what these services offer please go to our UuVol.com website, links to each service can also be found here. Also via the portal you can prevent services appearing in this menu that you do not wish to sign up to. Media NP30 H S I L G N E The NP30 can access media from UPnP Servers or local media connected via USB. The NP30 displays the following submenus:

Media UPnP Servers Local Media Queue UPnP is by far the preferred method as it allows for browsing by artist, album and other methods, has support for control from Wi-Fi controller and the media can be shared amongst several devices. UPnP servers Your NP30 can connect with Computers or Network Attached Storage devices that feature a Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) AV Server. When using a UPnP server to share your media, the search and selection criteria are determined by the server and not the NP30, but typically include Album, Artist and additional options such as Genre. As long as the NP30 is correctly congured for your Network it will automatically discover and connect to UPnP servers it nds when you go into the UPnP playback menu. It will then allow navigation of the menu structure coming from that server. There are many suitable UPnP server software packages available for PC and Mac. Stand-alone servers and Network Attached Storage (NAS) devices with built in UPnP server capabilities are also available. Please see the set-up guides on our website at http://support.cambridgeaudio.com/. Once you have setup a suitable server, navigate to the Media/UPnP Servers menu within the NP30 and press Select. The NP30 will perform a scan of your network and report any UPnP Servers it nds. If none are found it will display "No Servers Found" on the display. If a server or servers are found their names will be displayed and you can select which one youd like to get content from. Select the server you want and the NP30 will then load the appropriate menu structure from that sever. These typically allow you browse your content by Album, Artist, Genre etc.It is important to understand that the menu structure here is coming from the Server not the NP30. You can now browse and select any music content in a format the NP30 supports (currently AAC, MP3, WMA, AIFF, FLAC, WAV and Ogg Vorbis). Note not all servers support serving of all these formats. Always make sure the server you choose also supports your formats of choice. 11 Operating the NP30 cont. Alphameric Search to delete a character. button or navigate to the This is a search function menu inserted by the NP30 into the browse tree of UPnP servers that support an external search function. Where available you can select Alphameric search and then enter the name or partial name of an album or track you wish to nd. Simply select each character in order using the Navigation/Select dial, rotate to each character and then press in to select. You can also use the Skip buttons to move forward/back a character, to enter a character and Once nished either press the symbol and press the Enter button on the remote or press the Navigation/Select dial. The NP30 then displays all Album names or Track names it can nd that matches your chosen text. You can then simply select your chosen item and press the Enter or button on the remote to start it playing. The 'Now Playing' screen Selecting a new Station, Stream or Media item will start playback and display the 'Now Playing' screen. The current Artist/Album and Track or Station name will be shown with the relevant CODEC details (i.e. audio le type and bitrate/samplerate.) For Media les the NP30 also shows the incremental track playback time. You can also display the now playing screen at any time by pressing i on the remote control. Shuffle Accessed via the remote only. Press the The NP30 displays a in the 'Now Playing' screen when Shufe is On. button to toggle Shufe On or Off. If the currently selected media item/folder contains fewer than 1000 tracks the NP30 generates a true random shufe of those tracks and starts playback such that all are played once in a random order and then playback stops. If more than 1000 tracks are contained the NP30 will instead pick a track at random for playback then pick another one randomly (and without reference to what has gone before) once the current one has nished. This continues until Shufe is turned Off. Thus for >1000 tracks the playback of any track may be repeated randomly. 12 Repeat button to toggle Repeat On or Off. Accessed via the remote only. Press the If the currently selected media item is a track the NP30 will repeat that track, if it is an album or artist etc. the NP30 will repeat all tracks in that item. The NP30 displays a in the 'Now Playing' screen when Repeat is On. Local Media The NP30 can also playback audio content from standard USB hard-drives and thumb drives. Simply copy your media les onto your USB drive and then connect it to the front or back USB socket of the unit. Press the button to get to the top menu. Select the 'Media' menu and then the 'Local Media' item. The NP30 will now scan the thumb drive for media les. Once the scan is completed, you will then be able to browse the les by selecting 'By Album' or

'By Artist'. Queue The NP30 features a queue function that allows you to select multiple albums and/or tracks youd like to be played in order. When in the UPnP or Local Media selection menus, if you highlight a track/artist or album name etc and press and hold the Navigation/Select dial (or Enter on the remote handset), the NP30 will add the current item to the Queue. If it is the rst item to be queued playback will start. If it is an additional item 'Added to queue' will be displayed and that item will be appended to the queue. All component parts of that media item will be added, if the item is a track then only that track will be added but if the item is an album or an artist then all that albums or artists tracks will be added. To view the Queue simply navigate back to Queue item in the Media menu or press the Reply button whilst a queue is playing. Tracks that are a component part of a media item will be shown indented by a below their parent media item as below. The displayed menu shows the queued content for playback, you can navigate to any item and select it (via Enter or can also be used to delete items from the Queue. The currently playing item will have a next to it. At the bottom of the Queue a Clear Queue command is available for deleting the whole queue.

) to jump to playing that item. During Queue play back the NP30 displays a in the 'Now Playing' screen. Presets NP30 H S I L G N E button whilst a queue is playing. Pressing stop will stop the Queue playing but not delete it. Putting the NP30 into standby will delete the Queue. To view the Queue at any time simply navigate back to Queue item in the Media menu or press the Playlists The NP30 also supports various playlist formats. For permanent storage of favourite media selections it is recommended to use suitable software to create playlists. These can then be accessed by the NP30 from Local Media or UPnP servers that support Playlist serving. Podcasts The NP30 supports 20 presets. These can be UuVol Radio stations or streams from most Streaming Services. UPnP/Local media cannot be set as a preset.. To add a station/stream to a preset rst select that stream for playback in the normal way. Now press the button this will bring up the presets menu. Select the preset location you require and press and hold in the Navigation/Select dial to save the current station/stream to that preset. Recalling presets is done simply by pressing the button and selecting the preset you want with a brief push of the Navigation/Select dial. Note: The NP30 loads the presets for display from our UuVol servers over the internet, thus they can take a few seconds to appear. The podcast services in your area will be shown. These typically allow you to choose different types of podcast by subject, date or perhaps popularity etc. It is important to understand that the menu structure here is coming from that service and is controlled by them. It may therefore change as the service updates its features etc. The NP30 displays the following submenus. Podcasts BBC Podcasts BlogTalkRadio Personal Podcasts Note: The services available vary depending on your geographical location. There is also a menu item for your own choice of podcasts called Personal Podcasts. This allows access to podcast links that can input via the UuVol.com website. To use Personal Podcasts sign up at UuVol.com and enter the URLs of podcasts youd like the NP30 to automatically sync to. My Podcasts This feature allows you to access podcast on the NP30 that are not available in the Podcasts services we support. This is done by entering the URL for the podcast you want via the UuVol portal. To do this you need to be registered as per the section under UuVol. Simply login to your account and then click on the 'My Podcasts' link. From your 'My Podcasts' section, you can add your chosen podcast by entering in the podcasts name and its URL as prompted by the website. Please note, the podcast URL will have to be a direct RSS feed which will end with the '.xml'

extension e.g. http://someurl.com/podcast.xml. Once you have podcasts available in your 'My Podcasts' list, you may access these feeds from your NP30. These podcasts will be available from the menu item: 'Podcasts > My Podcasts'. Please note, the podcasts are pushed to your NP30 at turn on when the unit updates stations list and at intervals thereafter. To cause the radio to download Podcasts and new stations list immediately, turn on and off your NP30 from the front panel. 13 Settings menu This menu contains various setup / conguration menus as shown below. Settings Network Cong Version Upgrade Firmware Language Factory Reset Register NP30 Name WiFi Strength Remote Code Network Config This menu enables you to set your NP30s network settings, scan again for a connection to another wireless network, or to manually congure the network parameters. This is useful if you move your NP30 to a new location for instance. By default the NP30 will be set for Automatic wired/wireless detection and automatic IP addressing (DHCP) which will work without setup in most circumstances (for Wi-Fi you will need to enter your WEP/WPA key if you have one). In Auto mode the NP30 will look for a wired connection rst and then scan for wireless connections if it doesnt nd one. It will also try to obtain an IP address automatically from your router/DHCP server. If you wish to make changes to your setup the NP30 displays the following submenus. Network Config Scan for networks Enter network name View Cong Edit Cong Signal Warning WiFi Region Wired/Wireless Scan for networks This option scans all available Wi-Fi frequencies for wireless networks and allows you to connect to them. The NP30 can connect to 802.11b/g or n networks (2.4GHz frequency range only for n networks). A list of available networks will be presented. If a particular network requires an encryption key, a symbol will be seen at the end of the network name. Select your local network using the Navigation/Select dial and press it in for enter. The NP30 will then connect to the network using a saved key (if you have previously set one) or present you with an alphanumeric entry menu. Here you can enter the network key you set up when setting up your wireless network. Select each character in turn using the Navigation/Select dial and then press symbol and press Navigation/Select dial to enter that key. If you make a mistake, press The NP30 can handle keys in WEP, WPA and WPA2 formats (the choice of format is made by appropriate settings on your router) and automatically generates the right format from your text according to the router request. to go back one character. or navigate to the 14 Enter the network name This option allows the NP30 to search for and connect to a particular network name only. Type your network name in using the alphanumeric entry screen. If no matching network is found 'Network not found' will be displayed. View Config This menu rstly displays the IP mode (static or dynamic). This will be Auto/DHCP (i.e. dynamic, this is the default) or alternatively Static IP. For either mode by turning the Navigation/Select dial the NP30 will scroll through the various current IP parameters, for instance the ESSID of the current wireless network, Wired and Wireless MAC addresses, current IP address, (Sub)Netmask, Gateway address etc. Edit Config This menu allows the selection of IP mode between static or dynamic

(Auto/DHCP). Auto/DHCP is recommended for most people in most circumstances. Static IP requires quite a bit of knowledge about IP networks, and is for advanced users only. The default setting is thus Auto / DHCP, here the NP30 obtains its IP address each time you switch in on by a process called DHCP which means it is different each time it is acquired. This process is completely automatic and much simpler than implementing Static IP. However sometimes it is useful (especially in large networks) to know the exact IP address of each device, this can only be done by using static IP. When using Static IP you will also need to enter the network mask you wish to use and the addresses of your gateway and DNS service, note there is no way for Cambridge Audio to know what these are in your network. Only select static IP if you know exactly what you are doing!

To set static IP, select the 'Settings > Network cong > Edit Cong' menu and then press SELECT. The NP30 will now display 'Auto (DHCP)? YES / NO'. Turn the NP30s rotary dial to select 'NO' and then press SELECT. You will now be able to enter the xed IP address you wish to give your NP30 by using the rotary dial to select the desired numbers followed by pressing Navigation/Select dial to end inputting the address. The NP30 will now prompt you to enter the required network mask for the network. You will be able to enter this in the same way as before for entering the IP address. You will now need to enter the default gateways IP address used by the NP30 on the network. Finally, you will need to enter the DNS IP address for the NP30. On some networks, you may need to enter your ISPs DNS IP address, which should be available on your ISPs support page on their website. After entering the above information, the NP30 will now try to connect to your network. If you wish to use DHCP again simply select 'Settings > Network cong

> Edit Cong' and then set 'Auto (DHCP)? YES / NO' to 'YES'. Signal warning The NP30 can display a warning if the Wi-Fi signal strength is low enough to be causing reduced throughput.The options for the Signal Warning are simply Yes or No. Wi-Fi Region Different parts of the world use slightly different frequencies for Wi-Fi. For best performance you should set the NP30 to the region you live in, the current options are US, Spain, Europe (i.e. other than Spain), Japan. Wired/Wireless connection It is possible to connect your NP30 to your network via an available Ethernet connection (RJ45) or via a Wi-Fi router. By default the unit is in AUTO mode, each time you turn the unit it looks for the presence of a wired connection, and tries to use this, if none is present or it cannot connect it then tries to use the wireless connection and so on. In Auto mode once the NP30 has established a certain type of connection to the network, then this type of connection will remain in use while the NP30 is on. You can alternatively congure the NP30 to permanently only use the wired or wireless connection From the NP30s 'Network cong' menu, select

'Wired/Wireless'. This menu will present you with three options: 'Auto', 'Wired Only' and 'Wireless Only'. Selecting 'Wired Only' will cause the NP30 to reboot and then only use its Ethernet connection to communicate with the network. Selecting the 'Wireless Only' will cause the NP30 to reboot and only use its Wi-Fi connection. Selecting the 'Auto' option means the NP30 will try both and settle on the one it can make work as described above. Version This menu item displays some hardware/software version numbers for your NP30. Turn the rotary dial to scroll through the various items. The Service Pack is the currently loaded rmware software. Its a good idea to note this down if you need to contact our technical support people as they may request it. The Serial Number and Product Code are not normally required by the technical support team. Note:This Serial Number is not the same as the physical serial number on the back of the product itself. Upgrade Firmware Use this option to download new rmware for the NP30 from Cambridge Audio over the Internet. If you select this item the NP30 will contact our server and see if a newer version of software is available (Checking for updates will be shown in the display). If new software is found the NP30 will prompt you if you want to download it or not. It is a good idea to update the rmware from time to time to take advantage of any bug xes or new features. At this stage, you can press the NP30s button to cancel the rmware upgrade. A Firmware upgrade may take several minutes. Note:

It is very important that once the Firmware upgrade has started you do not switch off the power to the NP30 until the operation is complete otherwise the NP30 may become permanently damaged. Also do not interrupt the network or internet connection by removing the Ethernet lead or switching off your router etc. Language Allows you to change the display language used. A list of the currently supported languages will be shown. Select your preferred one and press enter. Note: The NP30 will then restart in order to start again in the new language, this will take approximately 30 seconds. Factory Reset Puts all the settings back to their defaults as they were when they left the factory. The NP30 will ask you if you are sure you want to proceed before performing a reset. Note:If you perform a factory reset, you will lose all your presets and any saved WEP/WPA keys for your wireless network connection. NP30 H S I L G N E Register This will display a key that can be used to register your NP30 on the UuVol portal at www.Uuvol.com. First you will need to set up an account on UuVol. Open www.UuVol.com from your Internet browser. See the section earlier on UuVol registration. Note the generated key lasts for about 10 minutes, if you dont use it in that time you will need to exit and re-enter this menu to get a new key. UPnP Name This menu allows the setting of the declared UPnP Client name for your NP30. This is the name other UPnP devices (such as control points and remote Apps etc.) will display when they see the NP30. The default name will be NP30 but can be changed to any name you can easily recall such as Dads NP30 or Kitchen etc. WiFi Strength Displays the strength of the received WiFi Signal. Note: If WiFi has been turned off (Ethernet mode only) the signal strength will show as 0%. Remote Code There are two Options:

Option 1 is the default and works with the NP30 remote control when also in its default mode. Option 2 gives a secondary code set in cases where the remote codes are found to clash with another remote handset. If Option 2 is selected on the NP30 then the remote handset must also be set to Option 2 remote codes as well as follows:

button whilst inserting the batteries to switch to Press and hold down the Option 2. By inserting the batteries without the button held down will default to Option1. UuVol Remote Router/Broadband modem Or UuVol remote is a free iPhone/iPod Touch/iPad application that allows wireless control of the NP30 or other UuVol powered Cambridge Audio products. The application allows full control of the NP30 including UuVol Radio, Streaming Services, UPnP Media, Presets, Queing and more. It also supports display of Album artwork and Station logos (where available). To use UuVol Remote you will need a Wi-Fi network or Access point for the application to connect to , the connection from your router to the NP30 can then be either Wi-Fi or Ethernet.

* iRadio/Streaming Services are output as 16 bit data at the appropriate sample rate for the decompressed data. The sample rate will be 32kHz, 44.1kHz or 48kHz depending on the streams sample rate. Incoming streams of less than 32kHz sample rate cannot be output over S/P DIF /Toslink. For compressed streams the true resolution of the audio is of course limited by the encoding. For Media content from local drives or UPnP this outputs in its native resolution of 16- 24 bits, 32 kHz 44.1kHz 48kHz or 96kHz with bit for bit transfer.

If you have trouble with the UuVol service then you may also nd it useful to visit the help section at www.UuVol.com. General Help guidelines:

If you have trouble connecting the NP30 to your network, these steps may help to resolve the problem:

Conrm that a connected PC can access the Internet (i.e. can browse the web) using the same network. Check that a DHCP server is available, or that you have congured a static IP address on the NP30. You can congure a static IP address on the NP30 using the menu item Settings -> Network Cong -> Edit Cong, and then select No for Auto (DHCP). DHCP is however the recommended method. Check that your networks rewall is not blocking any outgoing ports. As a minimum, the radio needs access to UDP and TCP ports 80, 5 54, 1755, 5000, 6000 and 7070. Check your access point does not restrict connections to a particular MAC addresses. You can view the radios MAC address using the menu item Settings -> Network Cong -> View Cong -> MAC address. If you have an encrypted Wi-Fi network, check that you have entered the correct key or passphrase into the NP30. Remember that text-format keys are case sensitive. If, when attempting to connect to an encrypted network, your NP30 displays: Wireless error followed by a 5-digit number, then please ensure that you enter the correct passphrase for the network. If the problem persists, then you may need to consult your network conguration. If your NP30 can connect to the network successfully, but is unable to play particular UuVol stations, it may be due to one of the following causes:

The station is not broadcasting at this time of the day (remember it may be located in a different time zone). The station has reached the maximum allowed number of simultaneous listeners. The station is not broadcasting anymore. The link in our database is simply out of date. The Internet connection between the server (often located in a different country) and you is slow. Try using a PC to play back the stream via the broadcasters web site. If you can play back the station with a PC, you can use the form at www.UuVol.com to notify us so that we can investigate. If you have problems with UPnP playback always check the following:

Ensure your chosen UPnP server software is capable of serving the le type you are trying to access. Some servers do not serve FLAC for instance. The NP30 can only play non DRM les. Files that have DRM controls cannot be played by the NP30. Some servers may be able to authorise and de-crypt Microsoft Playsforsure before then serving the content to the NP30 but this operation is not guaranteed as it is purely a function of the server. If attempting to play 24 bit WAV or FLAC content note a wired Ethernet connection is normally required for reliable operation due to bandwidth considerations. Check the NP30 is capable of playing back the le type you are trying to access. WMA, AAC, MP3, Vorbis, FLAC and WAV can currently be played. The NP30 does not support ALAC, WMA Pro, WMA lossless, RAW, AU or other le types not mentioned. If you have problems with Local Media playback always check the following:

Check the NP30 is capable of playing back the le type you are trying to access. WMA, AAC, MP3, Vorbis, FLAC and WAV can currently be played. The NP30 does not support ALAC, WMA Pro, WMA lossless, RAW, AU or other le types not mentioned. For local media the NP30 can only play non DRM les. Files that have DRM controls cannot be played. Check that your device does not require more than 500mA if it is powered from the USB socket itself. Check your device is formatted in FAT32 format. The way you organise your local media affects the size of internal database the NP30 needs to build dynamically as you browse content. Good practice is to create folders for Artists within which you should have a sub folders for each Album which then containing the tracks for that Album. Libraries with thousands of tracks in one folder will progressively slow down the NP30s media browsing. For all servicing, in or out of warranty, please contact your dealer.
