SuperUniti Installation and Connection
network connection. However, depending on mains wiring
factors specific to each home environment, the presence
of network data on the mains supply may compromise
overall system sound quality. If any sound quality
compromise is found to be unacceptable, dedicated
network cabling should be installed or wireless networking
should be employed.
2.9.2 Wireless Network Connection
If SuperUniti is to connect wirelessly to the home network
the supplied Wi-Fi antenna must be fitted to the rear panel
wireless antenna socket. Wireless configuration will also
be necessary before SuperUniti is able to connect to your
home network. See Section 4.6.1.
Note: An optional high-gain Wi-Fi antenna, the WA5,
is available. The WA5 may improve Wi-Fi connection
reliability in some installations. Contact your Naim retailer
for more information.
2.9.3 Network Settings
The SuperUniti is set up when originally shipped not to
require any on-site TCP/IP configuration but to connect
to a network automatically (it uses DHCP by default).
However, if your SuperUniti has been previously used, its
network configuration may have been altered leaving
it unable to connect automatically. If this appears to be
the case ensure that DHCP is selected in the Network
Settings menu (see Section 4.6 of this manual) and re-start
SuperUniti. If problems still persist contact your retailer,
installer or Naim Audio directly.
Note: Before reporting network connection problems carry
out a Factory Reset operation. Select Reset All Settings
from the Factory Settings setup menu. See Section 4.12.
Note: A SuperUniti switched on without a working wired
network connection will only be able to connect to
a home network wirelessly. To use an Ethernet (wired)
connection, switch the SuperUniti off, connect the network
and switch it on again.
Note: For internet radio to operate, the SuperUniti requires
connection to a broadband internet service.
2.10 System Automation
SuperUniti can be linked using System Automation to
control some Naim CD players. This enables a Naim CD
player to be controlled from the
n-Stream iPhone and iPad
App.
To take advantage of System Automation, connect the
SuperUniti rear panel
Remote Out socket to the CD player
Remote In socket. Use a cable terminated with a 3.5mm
jack plug at one end and a 3.5mm jack or phono plug as
necessary at the other end.
Note: Stereo and mono 3.5mm jack to 3.5mm jack can
be used for System Automation. If a stereo 3.5mm jack to
phono plug cable is used, connect the left channel phono
plug.
Note: SuperUniti System Automation is switched off by
default. A full description of its configuration and use can
be found in Section 4.11.
2.11 External Control and Interface
The SuperUniti is fitted on its rear panel with a 3.5mm jack
Remote In socket and a mini-USB interface socket.
The Remote In socket can be used for RC5 remote control
of the SuperUniti via a wired connection or a remote IR
repeater.
The mini-USB socket enables firmware upgrades and
diagnostic tests to be carried out. Contact your Naim
retailer for more information if required.
Note: The mini-USB interface is not intended for the
connection of USB memory devices.
