The tacks should not come into contact with the internal wire of the aerial. Whether you decide to get an aerial professionally installed or opt to use the supplied aerial it should be connected to the FM Antenna input 7 on the rear of the unit. For use in North America, use an F-type antenna connector; for Europe and other areas, use a female Belling Lee-type coaxial connector. T61 4 Connecting to other equipment Interconnect cables Interconnecting cables are not supplied with this tuner. We recommend high quality cables as inferior quality cables will degrade the sound quality of your system. Please contact your Arcam dealer for details of suitable cables. Connecting your tuner to your amplifier Audio outputs 6 Two pairs of identical outputs are provided. Connect one set to your amplifier’s tuner input or any other line-level input using suitable high quality interconnect cables. Ensure that the left and right audio outputs from the tuner are connected to the same left and right inputs on your amplifi er. The second set of audio outputs can be used to connect to a second amplifier set up for ‘multi room’ use, or routed to a tape recorder for ‘off air’ recording. Connecting to a power supply Wrong plug? Check that the plug supplied with the unit fits your supply and that your mains supply voltage agrees with the voltage setting switch (120V or 230V) indicated on the rear panel of the unit 2. If your mains supply voltage is different, switch the voltage selector across using a small screwdriver. Mains lead The appliance is normally supplied with a moulded mains plug already fitted to the lead. If for any reason the plug needs to be removed, it must be disposed of immediately and securely, as it is a potential shock hazard when inserted into the mains socket. Should you require a new mains lead, contact your Arcam dealer. Plugging in Push the plug (IEC line socket) of the power cable supplied with the unit into the POWER INLET socket 1 in the back of the unit. Make sure it is pushed in firmly. Put the plug on the other end of the cable into your power supply socket and switch the socket on. Custom installation features The T61 has a number of useful features that make it ideal for a custom installation, where the tuner is fully integrated with a specialist control system or operated by a programmable remote control. Remote control input 3 A rear panel input that receives modulated carrier based IR commands in RC5 format. The input is suitable for connection to a simple IR eye or to an external controller. Use of this socket disables the front panel IR eye. Trigger input 4 The trigger socket allows the tuner to be remotely switched in and out of standby. The primary front panel POWER switch must be in, ‘on’, for this mode. Apply a +12V DC voltage for ‘on’, the power indicator glows green; 0V for ‘standby’, the power indicator glows red. Note that use of this socket requires a 12V signal before the tuner can be switched fully on. Infrared (IR) remote commands The T61 responds to a set of Philips RC-5 codes in addition to those available on the supplied handset, which is kept simple for ease of use. Advanced programmable control devices, such as the Philips ‘Pronto’ and other system controllers, can be set up to use the additional codes. Refer to the instructions for your programmable device for details. A table of IR commands is provided on page 10 of this Handbook. T61 5 Using your tuner POWER T61 AM/FM TUNER STOREMONORDSBAND TUNING FM43286blbm179bk5103.5012PRESET MHz FM MUTE STEREO TUNEDSIGNAL Front panel Controls Preset Memory buttons 1 Directly select up to 32 preset stations (16 AM, 16 FM). Press briefly for stations 1–8, press and hold for more than one second for stations 9–16. BAND 2 Selects FM or AM frequency band. The appropriate letters appear on the display. RDS 3 Switches between RDS modes on FM if RDS is available. See the section ‘RDS: Radio Data System’. MONO 4 Selects mono or stereo output. Stereo is only available on FM radio stations. If a weak station is received in stereo the background hiss can be reduced (and in most cases eliminated) by selecting ‘MONO’. In mono mode, FM muting is suppressed when tuning between stations and the ‘FM MUTE’ indicator is switched off. STORE 5 The STORE button allows you to assign radio stations to preset numbers. See the instruction ‘Storing a preset’ Preset indicator 6 Indicates the number of the preset currently selected. Signal strength 7 A seven step indicator showing the strength of a tuned station. In FM generally 5 or more bars are required for good reception and to lock onto RDS data. Tuning 8 Switches between Tune and Preset mode for the down/up buttons. Preset mode is indicated by PRESET on the display. Tune down/up 9 Used to either scroll through presets, or to tune up and down the broadcast band, depending on the current mode. See Tuning to a station for more details. Frequency/ RDS display bk Indicates the frequency of the selected station in M...
