DEVICE NAME
This menu allows the setting of the declared UPnP Client name for your CXN v2.
This is the name other UPnP devices (such as control points and remote apps etc.)
will display when they see the CXN v2.
The default name will be ‘CXN v2’ but can be changed to any name you can easily
recall such as ‘Dads CXN v2’ or ‘Kitchen’ etc.
AUDIO
This menu contains a setup configuration as shown below.

USB Audio Class
Digital Pre-amp mode, when enabled, allows volume adjustment to be performed
within the up-sampling Digital Signal Processor (DSP) before being converted to an
analogue audio signal for connection to a power amp.
Normally, the output of CXN v2 (and most other source components) is output at
"full-scale" (i.e. maximum volume). This signal is then fed into a pre-amp which is
used to control the volume of all audio sources connected to it.
To enable Digital Pre-Amp mode it must first be activated within the setup menus.
Go to "Settings -> Audio -> Digital Pre-amp Mode" and set to "On". CXN v2 will then
respond to the vol+ and vol- buttons on the remote control at any time.
It is also possible to adjust the volume using the rotary controller knob on the front
of the unit.
Whenever the CXN v2 is showing its ‘Now playing’ screen turning the rotary
controller knob will adjust the volume. Pressing back or home etc. to access the
menu system allows the use of the rotary controller for menu browsing. If you are in
a menu and need to adjust the volume immediately simply press the ‘
i
’ button to go
straight to ‘Now playing’ and then use the rotary controller.
Maximum volume is shown as "0dB" on the display. Reductions in volume away
from maximum are shown in the form of negative numbers i.e. "-12dB". The larger
the negative number, the larger the signal reduction so the quieter it will be. A
muted or silent output is shown as "MUTE". The volume screen is shown briefly
when the volume is changed, after which it times-out to the previously displayed
screen.
The last used volume setting is memorised when the unit powered off.
USB AUDIO CLASS
USB Class options enable CXN v2 compatibility with both USB Audio 1.0 and USB
Audio 2.0 interface formats. The default setting is USB Audio 1.0 which will work
driverlessly with most operating systems for 16-24 bit content at 32-96kHz. Note
USB Audio 2.0 requires a driver to be loaded for Windows. Without this selecting
USB Audio 2.0 will normally give no output. See earlier section on USB Audio for
advanced users.
REMOTE CODE
There are three Options:
Option 1
– is the default and works with the CXN v2 remote control when also in
its default mode.
Option 2
– gives a secondary code set in cases where the remote codes are found to
clash with another remote handset.
If Option 2 is selected on the CXN v2 then the remote handset must also be set to
Option 2 remote codes as well as follows:
Press and hold down the '•••' (more) button whilst inserting the batteries to switch
to Option 2.
By inserting the batteries without the '•••' (more) button held down will default
to Option1.
Option 3
– No remote used.
Language
Allows you to change the display language used.
A list of the currently supported languages will be shown. Select your preferred one
and press enter.
Note:
The CXN v2 will then restart in order to start again in the new language, this
will take approximately 30 seconds.
SIGNAL WARNING
The CXN v2 can display a warning if the Wi-Fi signal strength is low enough to be
causing reduced throughput. The options for the Signal Warning are simply Yes or
No.
WI-FI REGION
Different parts of the world use slightly different frequencies for Wi-Fi. For best
performance you should set the CXN v2 to the region you live in, the current options
are US, Spain, Europe (i.e. other than Spain), Japan.
WIRED/WIRELESS CONNECTION
It is possible to connect your CXN v2 to your network via an available Ethernet
connection (RJ45) or via a Wi-Fi router. By default the unit is in AUTO mode, each
time you turn the unit it looks for the presence of a wired connection, and tries
to use this, if none is present or it cannot connect it then tries to use the wireless
connection and so on. In Auto mode once the CXN v2 has established a certain type
of connection to the network, then this type of connection will remain in use while
the CXN v2 is on.
You can alternatively configure the CXN v2 to permanently only use the wired or
wireless connection from the CXN v2’s 'Network' menu, select 'Wired/Wireless'.
This menu will present you with three options: 'Auto', 'Wired Only' and 'Wireless
Only'.
Selecting 'Wired Only' will cause the CXN v2 to reboot and then only use its Ethernet
connection to communicate with the network. Selecting the 'Wireless Only' will
cause the CXN v2 to reboot and only use its Wi-Fi connection. Selecting the 'Auto'
option means the CXN v2 will try both and settle on the one it can make work as
described above.
FIRMWARE
This menu item displays some hardware/software version numbers for your CXN
v2. Turn the rotary dial to scroll through the various items.
The Service Pack is the currently loaded firmware software. It’s a good idea to note
this down if you need to contact our technical support people as they may request it.
The Serial Number and Product Code are not normally required by the technical
support team.
Note:
This Serial Number is not the same as the physical serial number on the back
of the product itself.

CHECK FOR UPDATES
Use this option to download new firmware for the CXN v2 from Cambridge Audio
over the Internet.
If you select this item the CXN v2 will contact our server and see if a newer version of
software is available (‘Checking for updates’ will be shown in the display).
If new software is found the CXN v2 will prompt you and ask if you want to download
it or not. It is a good idea to update the firmware from time to time to take advantage
of any bug fixes or new features. At this stage, you can press the CXN v2’s
button
to cancel the firmware upgrade. A Firmware upgrade may take several minutes.
Note:
– It is very important that once the Firmware upgrade has started you do not switch
off the power to the CXN v2 until the operation is complete otherwise the CXN v2
may become permanently damaged.
– Also do not interrupt the network or internet connection by removing the
Ethernet lead or switching off your router etc.
