Get registration key
This will display a key that can be used to register your CXN on the Stream
Magic website at www.stream-magic.com. First you will need to set up an
account on Stream Magic. Open www.stream-magic.com from your Internet
browser. See the section earlier on Stream Magic registration.
Note:
– The generated key lasts for about 10 minutes, if you don’t use it in that time
you will need to exit and re-enter this menu to get a new key.
– All saved Presets will be deleted when a unit is registered/re-registered.
Network
This menu enables you to set your CXN’s network settings, scan again for a
connection to another wireless network, or to manually configure the network
parameters. This is useful if you move your CXN to a new location for instance.
By default the CXN will be set for Automatic wired/wireless detection and
automatic IP addressing (DHCP) which will work without setup in most
circumstances (for Wi-Fi you will need to enter your WEP/WPA key if you have
one).
In Auto mode the CXN will look for a wired connection first and then scan
for wireless connections if it doesn’t find one. It will also try to obtain an IP
address automatically from your router/DHCP server.
If you wish to make changes to your setup the CXN displays the following
submenus.

Wired/Wireless
Note: All wireless related menu are only available if the wireless dongle is
connected to the unit.
Scan for networks
This option scans all available Wi-Fi frequencies for wireless networks and
allows you to connect to them.
The CXN can connect to 802.11b/g or n networks (2.4GHz frequency range
only for n networks).
A list of available networks will be presented. If a particular network requires
an encryption key, a symbol will be seen at the end of the network name.
Select your local network using the Navigation/Select dial and press it in for
enter.
The CXN will then connect to the network using a saved key (if you have
previously set one) or present you with an alphanumeric entry menu. Here you
can enter the network key you set up when setting up your wireless network.
Select each character in turn using the Navigation/Select dial and then press
or navigate to the symbol and press Navigation/Select dial to enter
that key. If you make a mistake, press to go back one character.
The CXN can handle keys in WEP, WPA and WPA2 formats (the choice of
format is made by appropriate settings on your router) and automatically
generates the right format from your text according to the router request.
Enter the network name
This option allows the CXN to search for and connect to a particular network
name only.
Type your network name in using the alphanumeric entry screen.
If no matching network is found 'Network not found' will be displayed.
Current config
This menu firstly displays the IP mode (static or dynamic). This will be Auto/
DHCP (i.e. dynamic, this is the default) or alternatively Static IP.
For either mode by turning the Navigation/Select dial the CXN will scroll
through the various current IP parameters, for instance the ESSID of the
current wireless network, Wired and Wireless MAC addresses, current IP
address, (Sub)Netmask, Gateway address etc.
Edit config
This menu allows the selection of IP mode between static or dynamic (Auto/
DHCP). Auto/DHCP is recommended for most people in most circumstances.
Static IP requires quite a bit of knowledge about IP networks, and is for
advanced users only.
The default setting is thus Auto/DHCP, here the CXN obtains its IP address
each time you switch in on by a process called DHCP which means it is
different each time it is acquired. This process is completely automatic and
much simpler than implementing Static IP.
However sometimes it is useful (especially in large networks) to know the
exact IP address of each device, this can only be done by using static IP.
When using Static IP you will also need to enter the network mask you wish
to use and the addresses of your gateway and DNS service, note there is no
way for Cambridge Audio to know what these are in your network. Only select
static IP if you know exactly what you are doing!
To set static IP, select the 'Settings > Network > Edit Config' menu.
The CXN will now display 'Auto (DHCP)? YES/NO'. Turn the CXN’s rotary dial
to select 'NO' and then press SELECT.
You will now be able to enter the fixed IP address you wish to give your CXN
by using the rotary dial to select the desired numbers followed by pressing
Navigation/Select dial to end inputting the address.
The CXN will now prompt you to enter the required network mask for the
network. You will be able to enter this in the same way as before for entering
the IP address.
You will now need to enter the default gateway’s IP address used by the CXN
on the network.
Finally, you will need to enter the DNS IP address for the CXN. On some
networks, you may need to enter your ISP’s DNS IP address, which should be
available on your ISP’s support page on their website.
After entering the above information, the CXN will now try to connect to your
network. If you wish to use DHCP again simply select 'Settings > Network >
Edit Config' and then set the 'Auto (DHCP)? YES/NO' to 'YES'.
Wi-Fi strength
Displays the strength of the received Wi-Fi Signal.
Note:
If Wi-Fi has been turned off (Ethernet mode only) the signal strength
will show as 0%.
