  Operation

3  NaimUniti  Operation 

NaimUniti can be operated from either its front panel controls or from the supplied remote 
handset. In either case, setting up and operating NaimUniti requires navigation through 
a menu-driven user interface. The general principles of the interface are carried across 
each of NaimUniti’s elements so this section of the manual describes and illustrates those 
general principles.
