Product Description

2N IP Audio System is an IP audio system which allows you to play an acoustic message or any other audio stream from any LAN/WAN – connected PC. It communicates with the 2N® IP Audio Manager, receives the audio stream, decodes it and converts it into an analogue signal. Apply the 2N IP Audio System software for configuration and use of all functions (refer to the 2N® Net Speaker Quick Start and 2N® NetSpeaker Administration manuals for more details).

2N® Net Speaker, Ceiling


Electric Installation

It is very easy to connect 2N® Net Speaker electrically. Follow the steps below to avoid equipment damage or electrical injury:

  • Connect the UTP cable.
  • Connect a 12 V power supply (unless PoE is used).

Caution

  • Be sure to connect the 2N® Net Speaker power supply as the last step. The same applies to PoE supply from the LAN.
  • Wall Mounted 2N® Net Speaker it may be connected to the second passive speaker that will play in mono mode.

Warning

  • Do not exceed the upper voltage and current limits to avoid irreversible damage of the equipment.

2N® Net Speaker Connection

2N® Net Speaker can be connected to a standard local area network using a LAN interface via the RJ-45 connector on the back panel. Always use CAT-5d or higher class cables for reliability reasons. The LAN interface is equipped with the Auto MDIX function for automatic detection of a straight or crossed cable. 

The LAN interface can also be used for the 2N® Net Speaker power supply through active network elements or injectors meeting the IEEE 802.3af standard.

2N® Net Speaker can be fed using active network elements or PoE injectors via the LAN interface. In case this option is unavailable, use a 12 V DC / 2 A (Part No. 914102E) power supply, or another power supply on condition that you keep the nominal values included in the Electric Parameters subsection. 

Connect the 12 V DC power supply either to the back panel supply connector marked DC IN, or terminals marked DC IN + and DC IN -.

Warning

  • Do not exceed the maximum voltage values (24 V) applied to the LOGIC IN input to avoid irreversible damage of the equipment.

2N® Net Speaker Factory Reset

In some cases, it may be useful to reset the 2N® Net Speaker factory values using the RESET button on the back panel. Do this, for example, if 2N® Net Speaker ceases to respond, which may be caused by incorrect LAN settings, LAN configuration changes, forgotten password and so on.

Resetting Procedure:

  1. Turn RESET button to the right
  2. Keep the RESET button in this position (around 15 seconds)

  3. Turn RESET button to the left  as soon as the LED starts shining violet. 

Firmware Upgrade

The 2N® Net Speaker firmware upgrade starts automatically whenever 2N® Net Speaker gets connected to the 2N® IP Audio Manager. This guarantees that all connected devices have identical and latest firmware versions. Refer to www.2n.cz for the latest firmware version.
