Streaming

Services are services

that

come

usually require a subscription from them with differentservices being available

in

different

countries.

In

Overview

The NP30 is able

to

receive and play back media from several distinct types

of

source. Here we have attempted

to

give an overview

of

the

various types

of

service available and

the

terminology you may encounter.

UuVoi/UuVol Radio

UUV.OL

UuVol is Cambridge Audio's evolvi

ng

platform for streaming

...

~,.

client devices.

It

incorporates amongst other things

UuVol

Radio

our

Internet Radio service

checked forbroadcastreliabilityand qualityand

UuVol

.com ourwebsite/porta

l.

The portal aspect

of

our

website is

the

mechanism

that

allows transparent

connection (and update)

of

all

UuVol

enabled units

to

the various services.

The website is our visible presence

at

www.

UuVol

.com which amongst other

things allows you

to

also browse and play back

the

same stations from

an

internet connected

PC

and manage your presets and other preferences for

your

UuVol

client products.

You

can also add stations

to

your units

that

are

currently

not

in

the

UuVol

database, suggest new stations

to

us and more.Thereare also links and help

for

setting

up

third

-party Streaming Services from a wide variety

of

other

suppliers. Other UuVol features will be launched in

the

future

, check

the

website from

time

to

time

to

see the latest developments.

StreamingServices

Streaming Services are similar

to

Internet Radio

but

come from

other suppliers and often have an element

of

interaction with

the

user. Because StreamingServices generally allow

the

usersome choice over

the content they listen to, they are also licensed differently

to

iRadio

by

the

music companies and often each service only has arrangements in certain

countries and may also charge a subscription for membership.

Examples

of

such services are Last.FM, Pandora, Rhapsody, Napster and

others. All allow some control

of

the

content

from 'play me

somet

hing

that

sounds like U2'

to

the

abilityto selectand play whole albums

of

your choice.

Some also offer

the

ability

to

download contentfor use off-line as well.

The NP30supports many

of

these services, navigate

to

StreamingServices on

the unit for a list

or

even better check

out

our

portal

at

UuVol.com for more

details

of

which services are available

in

your area, whatthey do and how

to

sign up. These services come from

third

parties and although we suppo

rt

connections

to

them they do notcome from us and we are notresponsiblefor

their

service in any way. Your account will be with the service, we are merely

acting as a portal

to

make

the

connection simpler and more convenient plus

we

support

the

correctsoftware on our

unit

to

allow playback and browsing

of

their content.

Network Media

The NP30 supports a wide range

of

compressed formats; MP3,

AAC,

WMA

and Ogg Vorbis

CODEC

types are all supported, plus

for

true

audiophile use

it

also supports either uncompressed

PCM

(in

a

WAV

container) or losslessly compressed

FLAC,

both can contain

from

16

bits 44.1kHz from

COs

right up

to

24

bit

1

96kHz for betterthan

CD

quali

ty

from suitable download sites.

Note:

For

this

to

workyour serverwill al

so

need

to

supportthe

CO

DEC

you wish

to

play as some have limitations and may not serve

FLAC

for instance. Always

check

that

the

server you wish to use also supportsyourfavoured

CODECs.

Also for lossless

;uncompressed

formats both

the

server and network

connection will need

to

sustain

the

high bitrate necessary.

Note:

It

isnotrecommended

to

use Wi-

Fi

connections for contentabove

16

bits

44

.1/48k

Hz

if

losslessjuncompressed.

Local Media

The NP30also supports local mediafrom

USB

Flash-disks

or

USB

hard-drives

and has

two

USB1.1 ports for

this

purpose. Here

the

NP30 simply browses

the

folders present

on

the media attached and displays them. Only content

tha

t the NP30 can play will be shown. This feature is provided forconvenient

access

to

temporarystorage devices.

It

is

however highly recommended

that

UPnP is used for continued use

of

stored media as

the

UPnP

system is able

to

support

album

art

, sophisticated

content browsing and filtering and other features not possible with simple

folder browsing.

Note: Currently only

th

Your

NP30 can connect with Computers or Network Attached Storage devices

that

feature a Universal Plug and

Play

(UPnP)

AV

Server.

When using a

UPnP

server to share your media, the search and selection

criteria are determined

by

the server and not the NP30, buttypically include

Album, Artist and additional options such as Genre.

As

long as the NP30

is

correctly configured for your Network

it

will

automatically discover and connect to

UPnP

servers

it

finds when

you

go

into

the

UPnP

playback menu. It will then allow navigation ofthe menu structure

coming from

that

server.

There are many suitable

UPnP

server software packages available for

PC

and

Mac. Stand-alone servers and Network Attached Storage

(NAS)

devices with

built

in

UPnP

server capabilities are also available. Please see the set-up

guides on our website

at

http:/

;support

.cambridgeaudio.com;.

Once

you

have setup a suitable server, navigate to the Media/UPnP Servers

menu within the NP30 and press Select.

The NP30 will perform a scan ofyour network and report any

UPnP

Servers it

finds. If none are found it will display "No Servers Found"

on

the display. If a

server or servers are found their names will be displayed and

you

can select

which one you'd like to get content from.

Select the server

you

wantand the NP30 will then load the appropriate menu

structure from

that

sever. These typically allow

you

browse your content

by

Album, Artist, Genre etc.It is importantto understand

that

the menu structure

here is coming from the Server notthe NP30.

You

can now browse and select any music content in a format the NP30

supports (currently

AAC,

MP3,

WMA,

AIFF,

FLAC,

WAV

and

Ogg

Vorbis).

Note notall servers support servingofall these formats.

Always

make sure the

server

you

choose also supports your formats

of

choice.

If

the currently selected media item/folder contains fewer than

the

NP30 generatesa true random shuffie

such

that

all are played once in a random order and then playback stops.

If

more than

what has gone before) once the current one has finished.

This continues until Shuffie isturned

Signal warning

Th

e NP30 can display a warning

if

the

Wi

-

Fi

signal strength is low enough

to

be causingreduced throughput.The options

for

the

Signal Warningare simply

Yes

or

No.

Wi-Fi Region

Differentparts

of

th

e world use slightlydifferentfrequencies f

or

Wi-Fi.

For best

performance you should

set

th

e NP30

to

the

region you live in,

the

c

urrent

opt

ions a

re

US

, Spain, Europe (i.e.other

th

an Spain), Japan.

Wired/Wireless connection

It is possible

to

connect your NP30 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 unitit looks for the presence

of

a wired connection,and

tries to use this,

if

none is present or

it

cannot connect

it

then triesto use the

wireless connection and so on.

In

Auto mode once the NP30 has established

a certain type

of

connection to

the

network, then this type

of

connection will

remain in use while the NP30 is on.

You

can alternativelyconfigure the NP30

to

permanentlyonly use the wired or

wireless connection

From

the NP30's 'Network config' menu, select

'Wired/Wireless'.This menu will present you with three options: 'Auto', 'Wired

Only' and 'Wireless Only'.

Selecting 'Wired Only' will cause

the

NP30

to

reboot and then only use its

Ethernet connection to communicate with the network. Selectingthe 'Wireless

Only'

will cause the NP30to reboot and only use its

Wi-Fi

connection.Selecting

the 'Auto' option means

the

NP30 will

try

both and settle on

the

one it can

make work as described above.

Version

This menu item displays some hardware/software version numbers for your

NP30.

Turn

the rotary dial to scroll through

the

various items.

The Service Pack is the currently loaded firmware software. It'sa 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 supportteam.

Note: This Serial Number is notthe same as the physical serial number

on

the

back

of

the

product itself.

Upgrade Firmware

Use

thisoption to download new firmware for the NP30 from Cambridge Audio

over the Internet.

If

you select

this

item

the

NP30 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 NP30 will prompt you

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

NP30's ~ button to cancel the firmware upgrade. A Firmware upgrade may

take several minutes.

Note:

-It is very

important

that

once the Firmware upgrade hasstarted you do not

switch

off

the power to the NP30 until the operation is complete otherwise

the NP30 may become permanently damaged.

-Also do not interrupt the network or internet connection

by

removing the

Ethernet lead or switching

off

your router etc.

Language

Allows you to change the display language used.

Alistofthe currently supported languages will

be

shown. Select your preferred

one and press enter.

Note: The NP30 will then restart in order to start again in the new language,

this will take approximately

30

seconds.

Factory Reset

Puts all

the

settings back to their defaults as they were when they

left

the

factory.

The NP30 will ask

you

if

you

are sure you want to proceed before performing

a reset.

Note: Ifyou perform a factory reset,

you

will lose all your presets and any saved

WEP/WPA keys for your wireless network connection.

Sonata

NP30

Register

This will display a

key

that

can

be

used to register your NP30

on

the

UuVol

portal

at

www.Uuvot.com. First you will need to set up an account

on

UuVol

.

Open www.UuVol.com from your Internet browser. See the section earlier on

UuVol

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

.

UPnP Name

This menu allowsthe setting

of

the declared

UPnP

Client name for your NP30.

This

is

the name other

UPnP

devices (such as control pointsand remote Apps

etc.) will display when they see the NP30.

The default name will be 'NP30' but can be changed to any name you can

easily recall such as 'Dads NP30' or 'Kitchen' etc.

WiFi Strength

Displays the strength ofthe received

WiFi

Signal.

Note: If

WiFi

has been turned

off

(Ethernet mode only) the signal strength will

showasO%.

Remote Code

There are two Options:

Option 1 -

is

the default and works with the NP30 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.

IfOption 2 is selected on the NP30then the remote handset mustalso be set

Troubleshooting

If

you experience anytrouble with your NP30,then you may find

it

useful to visit

the

help section on

our

webpage

at

http

:/

;support.cambridgeaudio

.

com/

.

If

you have trouble with

the

UuVol service

then

you may also find

it

useful

to

visit

the

help section

at

www.UuVol.

com

.

General Help guidelines:

If

you have

trouble

connecting

the

NP30

to

your

network

, these steps

may

help

to

resolve

the

problem

:

• Confirm

that

a connected

PC

can access

the

Internet (i.e. can browse

the

web) using

the

same network.

• Check

that

a

DHCP

server is available,

or

that

you have configured a static

IP

address on

the

NP30.

You

can configure a

static

IP address on

the

NP30

using

the

menu item 'Settings

->

Network Config -> Edit Config', and

then

select

'No' for 'Auto (DHCP)'.

DHCP

is however

the

recommended method.

• Check

that

your network's firewall is

not

blocking any outgoing

ports

.

As

a

minimum,

the

radio needs access

to

UDP

and

TCP

ports

80,

554,

1755,

5000

,

6000

and

7070.

• Check your access

point

does

not

restrict connections

to

a

particular

MAC

addresses.

You

can view

the

radio's

MAC

address

using

the

menu

item

'

Settings->

Network Config

->View

Config

->

MAC

address'.

•

If

you have

an

encrypted Wi-Fi network,

check

that

you have entered

the

correct key or passphrase into

the

NP30

. Remember

that

text-format keys

are case sensitive. If, when

attempting

to

connect

to

an encrypted network,

your NP30displays: 'Wireless error' followed

by

a 5-digit number,then please

ensure

that

you enter

the

correct passphrase for the network.

If

the

problem

persists,

then

you may need

to

consult

your network configuration.

If

your

NP30

can

connect

to

the

network

successfully,

but

is

unable

to

play

particular

UuVol stations,

it

may

be

due

to

one

of

the

following

causes:

• The station is

not

broadcasting

at

this

time

of

the

day (remember

it

may be

located in a different

time

zone).

• The

station

has reached

the

maximum

allowed

number

of

simultaneous

listeners.

• The station is

not

broadcastinganymore.

• The

link

in

our

database is simply

out

of

date

.

• The

Internet

connection between

the

server (often located in a

different

country) and you is slow.

•

Try

using a

PC

to

play back

the

stream via

the

broadcaster's web site.

If

you can play

back

the

station

with a

PC

, you can use

the

form

at

www

.UuVol.com

to

notify us so

that

we can investigate.

If

you have

problems

with

UPnP playback always

check

the

following:

• Ensure yourchosen UPnP server software iscapable

of

serving

the

file type

you are trying

to

access. Some servers

do

not

serve

FLAC

for instance.

• The

NP30

can only play non DRM files. Files

that

have DRM controls cannot

be played

by

the

NP30. Some servers may be able

to

authorise and de-crypt

Microsoft Playsforsure before

then

serving

the

content

to

the

NP30

but

this

operation is

not

guaranteed

as

it

is purely a

function

of

the

server.

•

If

attempting

to

play

24

bit

WAV

or

FLAC

content

note a wired

Ethernet

connection

is normally required

for

reliable

operation

due

to

bandwidth

considerations.

• Check

the

NP30 is capable

of

playing back

the

file type you are

trying

to

access. WMA,

AAC,

MP3, Vorbis,

FLAC

and

WAV

can currently be played.The

NP30

does

not

support

ALAC

,

WMA

Pro, WMA lossless,

RAW

,

AU

or

other

file

types

not

mentioned.

If

you have

problems

with

Local

Media

playback

always

check

the

following

:

• Check

the

NP30 is capable

of

playing back

the

file type you are

trying

to

access. WMA,

AAC,

MP3, Vorbis,

FLAC

and

WAV

can currently be played.

• The NP30does

not

support

ALAC,

WMA

Pro,

WMA

lossless,

RAW,

AU

orother

file types

not

mentioned.

• For local

media

the

NP30

can only play non DRM files. Files

that

have DRM

controls cannot be played.

• Check

that

your device does

not

require

more

than

500mA

if

it

is powered

from

the

USB socket

itself

.

• Check your device is formatted in

FAT32

format

.

• The way you organise your local media

affects

the

size

of

internal database

the

NP30

needs

to

build dynamically

as

you browse content. Good practice

isto create folders

for

Artists within which you should have a subfolders

for

each Album which

then

containing

the

tracks

for

that

Album. Libraries with

thousands

of

tracks in one folder will progressively slow down

the

NP30s

media browsing.

For all servicing, in or

out

of

warranty, please contact your dealer.
