Configuring the Nyquist Integrated Power Amplifier

The NQ-GA20P2 is a plenum-rated Nyquist 20W integrated power amplifier. It works as a page zone extender to facilitate voice access to a single zone of one-way paging over the Nyquist network.

It also works in background music applications, leveraging the exhaustive audio management and distribution capabilities of Bogen’s Nyquist platform.

The NQ-GA20P2 appliance uses the latest in Class D amplifier technology and provides unparalleled sonic quality, exceptional reliability, and reduced power consumption to permit standalone PoE+ operation over the local network.

The Nyquist server or System Controller can automatically discover and configure the NQ-GA20P2, but you can also manage the device, and manually configure some settings, through the appliance’s web-based user interface (web UI). It can also operate in Standalone mode, allowing it to be used without a Nyquist server.

A two-second 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 the process for manual configuration. For information about using Nyquist’s automatic configuration process, refer to the appropriate Nyquist System Administrator Guide.

Note: Do not use third-party browser extensions with the Nyquist user interface.

To access the appliance’s Web-based user interface (UI):

1​Before accessing the web UI for the first time, the Bogen Certification Authority (CA) digital certificate must be installed on the client. This certificate can be downloaded from any Nyquist appliance and enables your browser to recognize the Nyquist web application as a trusted site.
For details on how to download and install the certificate to your client computers, see "Bogen Digital Certification Authority".

2​Access 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 server’s web UI navigation bar, select Stations, select Stations Status or Appliance Status, navigate to the device that you want to configure, and then select the Link icon.

c)​From the Nyquist server’s Appliance Discovery Wizard, select the Link icon for the device that you want to configure.

3​At the Nyquist appliance’s Login page, enter username and password, then press enter or click on the Login button.
The default username is admin; the default password is bogen.

Note: After a successful login, a warning will be displayed if the default password is still in use. We strongly encourage changing the default password as soon as possible.

When you have logged in successfully, you will be presented with the dashboard for the appliance.
