Clock sync
The CLOCK indicator does not stop blinking.
e Set clock synchronization mode to OFF when not using it.
e A clock signal with which the unit cannot be synchronized
might be being input. Check the connection of the CLOCK
SYNC IN connector and the settings of the connected device.
A beeping noise is output at a regular interval.
e If a beeping noise is output at a regular interval when the unit
is in clock sync mode, the connected device might not also be
in clock sync mode. Check the connection of the CLOCK SYNC
IN connector and the clock sync mode setting of the con-
nected device.
An audio file cannot be played back (correctly).
e Different media servers (NAS) support different types of files.
Use a recommended media server (MinimServer) to enable the
full functionality of the N-05.
The sound breaks up during playback.
e If MP3s and other files with low bit rates play back normally,
but files at 384 kHz and other high bit rates break up, the
ETHERNET speed might be too slow.
The audio data is transmitted from the NAS through the router.
For this reason, using LAN cables to connect the NAS to the
router and the router to this unit is preferable.
USB connections with a computer
Computer does not recognize this unit.
e This unit can be connected by USB and used with a computer
running one of the following operating systems (as of February,
2016).
OS X Lion (10.7)
OS X Mountain Lion (10.8)
OS X Mavericks (10.9)
OS X Yosemite (10.10)
OS X El Capitan (10.11)
Windows Vista (32-bit, 64-bit)
Windows 7 (32-bit, 64-bit)
Windows 8 (32-bit, 64-bit)
Windows 8.1 (32-bit, 64-bit)
Windows 10 (32-bit, 64-bit)
Operation with other operating systems cannot be assured.
There is noise.
e Starting other applications during playback of a music file may
interrupt playback or cause noise. Do not start other applica-
tions during playback.
e When the unit is connected to a computer via a USB hub, for
example, noise might be heard. If this occurs, connect the unit
directly to the computer.
Audio files cannot be played back.
e Connect the computer with this unit and switch to USB before
starting the music playback software and music file playback.
Audio data might not play back correctly if you connect this
unit with the computer or change its input to USB after start-
ing the music playback software.
Since this unit uses a microcontroller, external noise and other
interference can cause the unit to malfunction. In such a case,
turn the unit off and wait about one minute before restarting
operation from the beginning.
