Sound System Installation

STEP 1: Speaker installation (without volume control)

• Connect the RED speaker wire to the 70 volt connection on the back of the amplifier.
• Next, connect the RED speaker wire with the GREEN (5 watt) wire on the speaker. (It is recommended to use connectors when joining wires together!)
• Next, connect the BLACK (ground) speaker wire from the amplifier to the BLACK wire on the first speaker. (Dotted lines represent the wiring that should be used if you are not using a volume control.)

[!] If you are installing a volume control, follow the instructions below for Volume Control Installation!

Please Note: With 70 volt speaker systems you will be “Daisy Chaining” each speaker together. You will do this by connecting the RED speaker wire to the GREEN wire on each speaker. Then connect the BLACK speaker wire to the BLACK (ground) on each speaker.

We recommend that you contact your network administrator before proceeding with the process below.

In order to complete the process below you will need the following from your network router:

• Static IP address (not being used on your network)

• Default Gateway
• DNS Server

To manually configure your SUBWAY® Radio Media Player with a static IP address, complete the following steps.

In your Player's menu options:

1. Select Settings

Troubleshooting Guide

Your media player is preconfigured with a built-in set-up wizard. When it’s connected to an active Internet source it will automatically find an IP address and begin playing. To test if music is playing you can press the speaker button on the front panel. Select Channel then a music station. Turn up the volume. If you hear audio then your player is connected.

Not working properly? Try these troubleshooting tips.

Before you begin troubleshooting, we suggest that you update your player with the latest software version. Simply press and hold the brightness key, located on the bottom right of the remote.

Media player won’t power up.

• Make sure AC power cord is plugged into a working power outlet.
• Make sure power adapter is connected to the back of the player.

Player displays song title and artist, but has no sound.

• Make sure volume is turned up.

No sound plays from speakers but you have sound from the player.

• Make sure proper input on the amplifier or receiver is selected, and that it is powered on. If red and white RCA cord is plugged into AUX on back, AUX should also be selected on front.
• Make sure speaker wires are properly connected.

Player display says: Network Cable is Disconnected.

• Go under Settings and select Factory Reset. The player should reboot and try to connect again.
• Check Ethernet cable for a defect or damage. Try using another cable.
• Reboot router or switch. If issue persists try using a different port on the router.
• If you still cannot connect: Your player is not getting through the network. If there are firewalls, you will need to have a network admin open outbound traffic for the player port or MAC address.

Your Router might not be set for DHCP and will require you to input a static IP address.

• Make sure Ethernet cable is connected to back of player and router or switch.
• Try plugging Ethernet cable into a different port on switch or router.
• Check with your Internet Service Provider to find out if you are on a static IP address (If yes, see Static IP Configuration below).
• Reboot router or switch.
