NaimUniti 2 Setup

Select the

Large+Sub

option when a subwoofer is

connected to NaimUniti 2 and used to augment the low
frequency performance of large (full bandwidth) speakers.

Select

Large

when no subwoofer is used (the NaimUniti 2

subwoofer output is switched off when Large is selected).

Select

Small+Sub

when a subwoofer is used to provide

the low frequency component of a speaker system
incorporating small (restricted bandwidth) satellite
speakers. When Small+Sub is specified, a 100Hz high-pass
filter is applied to the NaimUniti 2 speaker output signal.

The speaker

Max. Volume

and

Balance

parameters specify

maximum allowed volume, and the channel balance
respectively.

The Headphones setup menu
enables the

Max. Volume

parameter

to be specified:

4.6 The Network Settings Menu

The Network Settings menu
enables NaimUniti 2 network
parameters to be customised
to suit the router and network.
The options are tabulated and
described in the following sections:

Parameter Options

Name:

User definable (text entry)

Default: Uniti-xxxx

Wireless:

Not Used / Wireless Network Names

Status:

Connected / No Signal / Login Failure /
Busy / Etc.

DHCP:

Yes / No

MAC:

Displays the NaimUniti 2 MAC address

The

Name

parameter enables the NaimUniti 2’s default

network name to be changed.

The

Wireless

parameter enables a wireless network to be

chosen and joined. See Section 4.6.1 below for detailed
wireless set up notes.

Network

Status

displays the current network connection

status.

The

DHCP

parameter enables the NaimUniti 2 network

settings to be modified. In most cases, specifying

Yes

and

leaving NaimUniti 2 set to DHCP, will be the appropriate
option. See Section 4.6.2 below for notes on non-DHCP
network connection.

Note:

Devices installed on a network have an IP address

through which they are identified by all the other items
on the network. DHCP is a set of rules that enable the

automatic allocation of addresses as items are connected
(or switched on while connected) to the network.
NaimUniti 2 is set up by default to use DHCP.

Note:

If NaimUniti 2 is connected to the network both

wirelessly and via Ethernet (wired), the Ethernet connection
will take priority.

4.6.1 Wireless Network

Connection Set Up

If the

Wireless

parameter is

selected in the Network Settings
menu the Select Network menu
will display a list of the available
networks. An option not to use a wireless connection is
also provided. Use the handset

(

) or

down

(

) keys

to scroll through the list and the

ok/list

key to select a

network.

Note:

NaimUniti 2 is compatible with most commonly used

Wi-Fi standards. Routers that support 802.11b and 802.11g
will work, however those with 802.11g compatibility are
recommended for best results.

Note:

As with any wireless network hardware, NaimUniti

2 connection reliability will be affected by both network
router performance and Wi-Fi signal quality. To minimise
the possibility of poor connection reliability, NaimUniti 2
should be connected to network audio sources by no more
than one wireless “leg”. Other “legs” necessary between
NaimUniti 2 and the network audio sources should be wired.

Note:

NaimUniti 2 cannot connect to a “hidden” wireless

network.

If the selected network is secure
and requires a passphrase or
access key to join, NaimUniti 2 will
display an alert message. Pressing
the handset

ok/list

key will then

open a text entry screen for entry
of the passphrase or access key.

Use the handset

numeric/text

keys to enter the passphrase or
access key taking care to ensure
that the letter case is correct.
Press the handset

ok/list

key

when text entry is complete. In
the illustration the passphrase is
“flatfish”.

If the network is successfully
joined NaimUniti 2 will display a
confirmation screen.

If an incorrect passphrase or
access key is entered NaimUniti 2
will display an alert message.

Note:

As a security measure,

a router may also require the
NaimUniti 2’s MAC address to be
entered before allowing it to join the wireless network. This
