Configuring the Two-Channel Audio
Power Amplifiers
Bogen’s Nyquist-based networked two-channel audio power amplifiers (NQ-A2060-G2,
NQ-A2120-G2, NQ-A2300-G2) support small, medium, and large Nyquist intercom solu-
tions in schools and in commercial paging and public address solutions.
Available in 120-, 240-, and 600-watt models, the audio power amplifiers provide flexibil-
ity and versatility without the need for add-on modules. Each model offers state-of-the-
art, built-in Digital Signal Processing (DSP) software—including factory loudspeaker pre-
sets—that turns the amplifier into a complete audio solution.
A short press of the appliance’s Reset button reboots the device. If you press the Reset
button for 10 seconds, the appliance returns to the factory default configuration settings.
Returning to the default configuration settings does not change the appliance’s firmware.
The following sections describe settings and configurations that can be applied to this
device which are not controlled by the Nyquist server. For information about using
Nyquist’s automatic configuration process, refer to the appropriate Nyquist System
Administrator Guide.
To access the appliance’s user interface (UI):
1Access the appliance’s web UI by doing one of the following:
a) On your web browser, enter the IP address for the appliance as the URL.
b) From the Nyquist web UI navigation bar, select Stations, select Stations Status,
navigate to the device that you want to configure, and then select the Link icon.
Note: Do not use third-party Chrome browser extensions with the Nyquist user inter-
face.

Standalone Operation
This device can run in Standalone Operation mode, where it will not interact with a
Nyquist server (e.g., E7000 or C4000). This means the device will not:
• Fetch device configuration from Nyquist server
• Register with Nyquist server (via SIP)
• Store backup information to Nyquist server
• Allow access to Nyquist server-based NTP
Standalone Operation mode is ideal for scenarios that do not require the full functionality
provided by an integrated system, such as the Bogen C4000 or E7000 Series, but has the
ability to provide paging, multi-channel audio processing, and a SIP endpoint for a PBX/
VoIP phone system. It can be used to play music, audio, paging, and related functions.

Accessing Log Files
A log file records events and messages that occur when software runs, to be used when
troubleshooting the appliance. From the appliance’s web-based UI, log files can be
viewed directly or exported via download to your PC, Mac, or Android device, where they
can be copied to removable media or attached to an email for technical support.
To view a log file:
1On the appliance Web UI’s main page, select Logs.
2From the drop-down menu, select the log that you want to view.
Multiple versions of the same log, and zipped copies of the log, may be available.
3To export the file, select Export.
A link to a .txt file appears in the browser’s lower left corner.
Note: Multicast Addresses should be ordered by priority, highest priority first. If multi-
ple streams are active on the same channel simultaneously, the one with the highest
priority will be played. Set the Sorting switch to Enabled and drag entries using the 4-
way arrow symbols to drag entries up and down to rearrange the priorities.
Note: A maximum of 24 multicast entries is supported.
