Congratulations on purchasing your LARA Radio device (Internet radio in a switch).
The instruction manual provides information on installing and operating the device. The instruction manual is always a part of the supply.
Only perform installation after becoming thoroughly familiar with this User Guide and device functions. Problem-free function of the device
also depends on the way it was shipped, stored and handled. If you notice any signs of damage, deformation, malfunction or a missing part,
do not install this product and return it to the point of sale. At the end of its service life, the product and its parts must be treated as electronic
waste. Before starting the installation, make sure that all wires and connected parts are not under voltage. When assembling and performing
maintenance, you must uphold safety regulations, standards, directives and special provisions for working with electrical equipment.
For successful installation, you will need: LARA Radio, a set of speakers, PoE power source, UTP cable with RJ45 connector, cable for speakers, PC
with the application LARA Configurator.
To protect yourself from electrical shock, connect only safety extra-low voltage (SELV) circuits. For example power supplies PoE (SELV) or LAN
circuits (SELV circuits). Other power supplies (ELV) and WAN circuits (TNV circuits) should not be connected directly to product.

Warning: some LAN and WAN ports use the same connectors RJ-45 so be careful when connecting a product.

• A music and Internet radio player - all in the dimension of a switch and a luxurious LOGUS

design.

• LARA Radio - when connected to the Internet, it can play streaming radio stations and you can store up to 40 of them. But you can also select from thousands of radio stations from across the

globe, which provide data for correct connection.

• LARA Radio can play content from an external music source, which can be an smart phone or e.g. an MP3 player. These devices are connected to a 3.5mm stereo jack audio input, located

underneath the front panel.

• LARA Radio can also play audio files from central data storage, onto which Logitech Media Server is installed. This LARA function can therefore be used within the complex iNELS system or as an

entirely independent home automation device. When used within iNELS, control is a part of the complex application iHC. If using with NAS data storage, the application LARA NAS App is available.

• Touch control is performed on the device front panel (six capacity buttons available), or by infrared remote control, which is included in the product packaging. The basic device settings

(network connection, language, audio input) are performed via the display and a simple menu controlled from capacity buttons on the device front cover. Further settings (selection of
stations, connection with the server, updating firmware, etc.) are configured via computer and the software LARA Configurator.

• LARA Radio is equipped with an OLED colored display with the size of 1.5“. The display also shows basic information about playing music, which also serves the orientation in the menu settings,

etc.

• LARA Radio has an integrated amplifier with 2 x 10 W output, thus greatly facilitating device installation in places where such output suffices. LARA is used e.g. to provide premium sound to

the kitchen, waiting rooms, offices, reception desks, entrance halls, operating rooms or wellness facilities.

•  LARA is powered by PoE with maximum voltage level 27 V DC / 1000mA. So connecting and communicating with just one cable (UTP) is a major advantage.
•  For LARA, an entire series of accessories is ready for connection (PoE adapters, PoE switches), speakers (in a frame, walls or ceilings) and installation (cables, box, etc.).
•   Complies with standards IEEE 802.3u (100BASE-Tx).
•  Automatic cable crossing detection of Ethernet cable - MDIX.
