AC power socket
Once you have completed all connections to the amplifier, plug the AC power
cable into an appropriate mains socket and turn the unit on. Your unit is now

Wireless antenna

or n networks (2.4 GHz will only be used for n networks).
USB
Use to connect a USB storage device or another portable device that is USB
HD/flashdisk compatible containing music files. 500mA maximum current
capability.
Trigger In
The Sonata NP30 can be turned on and off (i.e. brought in and out of Standby
mode) by a trigger voltage connected to the Trigger In. A transition from or to
5-12 DC will turn the Sonata NP30 on. Another transition from or to 5-12 DC
will put the Sonata NP30 into Standby mode. The matching Sonata AR30 or
DR30+ receivers’ feature a trigger output suitable for this purpose which
allows the Sonata NP30 to be automatically powered up when Aux is selected
on the Sonata AR30/DR30+.
Ethernet
Ethernet port for connecting to a 10/100BASE-T local area network (LAN).
Digital Outputs
S/P DIF co-axial digital output – For output to a separate DAC, such as
Cambridge Audio DacMagic*. To obtain best results, use a high quality 75ohm
digital RCA interconnect cable (not one designed for normal audio use).
TOSLINK Optical digital output – For output to a separate DAC*. Use a high
quality TOSLINK fibre optic interconnect cable.
Note: To obtain the best results from your system we recommend using only
high quality Cambridge Audio interconnects. This will ensure that you hear
your system as we designed it. Please ask you dealer for details.
* For more information, see the DacMagic page on the Cambridge Audio website:

Audio output
Use good quality inter-connect cables from these sockets to any line level input
on your amplifier (Aux, CD, Tape, etc.).
For the matching Sonata AR30/DR30 receivers, always use the Aux input as
this corresponds to the NP button on the NP30 remote control.
