QUICK SETUP GUIDE

This simple guide will help you get started with your C 3050 LE.

Your C 3050 LE can be connected to your home network via 

Wired

 or 

Wireless

 connection.

IMPORTANT! 

•  For wired and wireless connection to be established, ensure that a 

broadband router that supports Ethernet and/or Wi-Fi standards is set 
up and available. 

•  Tablets, smartphones and other applicable devices that support iOS 

(Apple) or Android operating system can be used as mobile device 
controllers. These devices are not supplied with your C 3050 LE.

•  Download and install the corresponding “BluOS Controller” App for 

your device.

•  The BluOS App is available as a Mobile App for Android, iOS, Kindle and 

Desktop App for Windows and macOS computers. 

•  Mobile Apps are handled by the respective Application Store of the 

Mobile devices.

•  Desktop Apps are available to download directly from the Bluesound 

homepage -

Using an Ethernet cable (not supplied), connect one end to C 3050 LE’s 
LAN port and the other end directly to your Wired network or router.

keyboard to create a customized room name in the field “Custom 
name”.
