A Subwoofer can also be connected directly to the NODE 2. Connect SUBW OUT
to a powered (“active”) subwoofer.
COAX OUT :
Using a coax cable (not provided), connect one end to the COAX OUT of the NODE 2 and the
other end to the corresponding coax input of compatible devices such as receivers, computer soundcards or
other digital processors.
OPTICAL OUT :
Using a Digital Optical cable (not provided), connect one end to the OPTICAL OUT of the
NODE 2 and the other end to the corresponding digital audio input of compatible devices such as receivers,
computer soundcards or other digital processors.
OPTICAL IN/ANALOG IN :
Using a 3.5mm Stereo Audio Cable (provided), connect one end to the Analog In
of the NODE 2 and the other end to the corresponding analog output of other compatible devices. The source
will show as an Analog Input in the Navigation Drawer of the Bluesound app. Using the 3.5mm Mini Jack to
Toslink adaptor (included with the NODE 2), a digital optical source can also be added. This will appear as Optical
Input in the Navigation Drawer.
TRIGGER OUT :
A 12V DC signal is available using TRIGGER OUT. The 5V DC signal can be used to control or
activate other external devices equipped with a corresponding 5V trigger input using a 3.5mm mono audio cable.
A 3.5mm stereo audio cable is required for 12V external devices.
IR IN :
An infrared extender can be connected to allow for programmable learning remotes to control volume and
source selection when a NODE 2 is stored in a way that the front panel IR sensor is not visible.
LAN PORT :
The LAN PORT connection can be used with the Ethernet cable provided. This is an optional
connection since the NODE 2 can be connected to the network through a Wi-Fi connection to your router. To
setup the NODE 2 using the LAN Port a Wired Ethernet connection is required. Using the Ethernet cable provided,
connect one end of the Ethernet cable to the LAN port of your wired Ethernet broadband router and the other end
to the NODE 2’s LAN port.
USB (TYPE A) :
Connect a USB mass storage device or Bluetooth adaptor to the USB input. Typical USB mass
storage devices compatible with the NODE 2 include portable flash memory devices and external hard drives
(FAT32 formatted).
SERVICE :
Use the SERVICE port in conjunction with USB (Type B Mini) to initially load firmware on the Player.
This is not for consumer use. Only Authorized Bluesound Service personnel can access this USB port and
SERVICE control button.
AC MAINS INPUT :
The NODE 2 comes supplied with two separate AC power cords. Select the AC power cord
appropriate for your region. Before connecting the plug to the wall outlet, connect firmly the other end of the AC
power cord to NODE 2’s AC Mains input socket. Never force the plug into a wall outlet. An adaptor may be necessary
in certain regions. Always disconnect the plug from the wall outlet first, before disconnecting the cable from the
NODE 2’s AC Mains input socket.
FRONT PANEL HEADPHONE JACK :
A 3.5mm headphone jack is located on the front of the NODE 2.
