2. Installing and Connecting

2.7.3 Network Settings

NAC-N preamplifiers are set up when originally shipped
not to require any network configuration but to connect to
networks automatically (DHCP is used by default). However,
if your NAC-N preamplifier 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 and re-start the unit. If the problem still persists
carry out a Factory Reset operation (by selecting Reset All
Settings from the Factory Settings setup menu) and try
again.

Note: Wireless configuration data and user radio presets
will be deleted during the Factory Reset operation.

2.8 Bluetooth

NAC-N 272

The NAC-N-272 is able to play Bluetooth audio streams from
Bluetooth capable devices incorporating an appropriate
audio playback app. The Bluetooth aerial supplied must be
fitted to the rear panel Bluetooth aerial socket.

Note: The Bluetooth aerial is the shorter of the two
supplied.

2.9 System Automation

NAC-N preamplifiers can be linked using System
Automation to control some Naim CD players. This enables
a Naim CD player to be controlled from the Naim iOS and
Android app.

To take advantage of System Automation, connect the
NAC-N preamplifier 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: System Automation is switched off by default. A full
description of its configuration and use can be found in
Section 4.12.

2.10 Control and Update Sockets

NAC-N preamplifiers are fitted on their rear panels with
remote control and update interface sockets.

In addition to System Automation (see Section 2.9) the
Remote In and Out sockets can be used for RC5 remote
control via a wired connection or a remote IR repeater.

The Mini-USB socket enable 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.
