4.9 The System Automation Menu

With System Automation enabled 
and an NDX 

Remote Out

 socket 

connected to the 

Remote In

 

socket of a Naim preamplifier 
(or integrated amplifier), CD 
player or the Naim DAC, the 
NDX handset and n-Stream App can provide system-wide 
control.

The System Automation setup menu comprises five items. 
These are explained in the following paragraphs:

Selecting 

Preamp 

or 

Naim DAC

 

opens a menu that enables 
preamplifier or DAC inputs to be 
added to the inputs available for 
selection via the NDX handset 
and n-Stream interfaces. Inputs 
can be enabled, disabled and renamed and, as “virtual” 
NDX inputs, can be assigned to NDX handset input keys.

Selecting 

NDX Connection

 

opens a menu that enables 
the preamplifier input to which 
the NDX is connected to be 
specified. This preamplifier input 
is then automatically selected on 
selection of NDX inputs.

Selecting 

CD Player

 opens a 

menu that makes CD transport 
control available through the 
NDX n-Stream interface. Select 

Enabled

 to enable CD control 

and select 

Input Used

 to specify 

the NDX, preamplifier or DAC input that the CD player is 
connected to.

Note:

 CD player transport control using the NDX handset is 

not possible. The n-Stream App must be used.

Selecting 

Advanced Setup

 opens a menu that provides 

access to a range of advanced configuration parameters.  
These parameters will not normally need adjustment. 
Contact your retailer, distributor or Naim directly for more 
information if required.
