CXN

Device name

This menu allows the setting of the declared UPnP Client name for your CXN.
This is the name other UPnP devices (such as control points and remote apps 

etc.) will display when they see the CXN.
The default name will be ‘CXN’ but can be changed to any name you can 

easily recall such as ‘Dads CXN’ or ‘Kitchen’ etc.

Audio

This menu contains a setup configuration as shown below.

Digital Pre-amp Mode

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 (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 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 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 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 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 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 will then restart in order to start again in the new language, this 

will take approximately 30 seconds.

Signal warning

The CXN 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 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 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 has established 

a certain type of connection to the network, then this type of connection will 

remain in use while the CXN is on.
You can alternatively configure the CXN to permanently only use the wired or 

wireless connection from the CXN’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 to reboot and then only use its 

Ethernet connection to communicate with the network. Selecting the 

'Wireless Only' will cause the CXN to reboot and only use its Wi-Fi connection. 

Selecting the 'Auto' option means the CXN 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. 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 from Cambridge Audio 

over the Internet.
If you select this item the CXN 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 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’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 until the operation is complete otherwise the 

CXN may become permanently damaged.

–  Also do not interrupt the network or internet connection by removing the 

Ethernet lead or switching off your router etc.

Display brightness

Alters the brightness of the CXN display backlight. There are three brightness 

levels; off, dim, bright and an option to switch-off the backlight.
When the display is set to OFF, nothing will be displayed onscreen until a 

selection is made via the front panel or remote control. The display will then 

re-activate allowing you to browse the menu and make your selection. The 

display will then automatically switch back off after a few seconds if no further 

selections are made.
