How to operate the BluOS RC1 remote?

The Bluesound RC1 remote allows you to control your music on the compatible BluOS-enabled NAD Players* without the BluOS Controller app. The RC1 comes pre-programmed for compatible BluOS-enabled NAD Players* and requires no configuration out of the box.

*Compatible Models: – C 700, M10, M10 V2, CI 580, CI 580 V2, CI 720, CI 720 V2, M50, M50.2, and M66.

Setup

To set up the RC1, remove the remote's rear panel using a nail or coin, then insert the two 3V batteries supplied with the remote. Once the batteries are inserted, you can control your music by aiming the RC1 at your BluOS-enabled NAD Player*.

Presets

With the preset buttons on the RC1, you can switch between your presets 1 to 10 quickly without opening the BluOS Controller app. For more information regarding creating presets, refer to our Help Center article.

Programming

On the RC1, both up and down on the navigation dial are programmable and do not have previously assigned commands. You can assign your own commands to these buttons using the BluOS Controller app. Learn more.

Changing Channels

In case you are using several BluOS players* at home that you intend to manage with your RC1, you have the option to modify the remote's channel. This helps avoid unintentional commands being sent to any specific player. To ensure proper compatibility, it's vital to configure both the RC1 and your player to use the same channel.

• Changing the Channel on your RC1
  

  To change the channel on your RC1 remote, hold both the Network Standby button and the preset button (1~7 or 10) corresponding with the channel you would like to use for 10 seconds until the LED at the top of your RC1 flashes green. The RC1 can be programmed from channel 0 to channel 7. For instance, to change to channel 1, hold both Network Standby and preset 1.
  To change to channel 0, hold both Network Standby and preset 10.
