I. Installing the NV-T2 Dual Tuner Stereo Audio Connections Fig . 1 AUX IN Each tuner has two audio output jacks. One is a stereo RCA connection, and the other is a stereo 3.5mm mini. The RCA output is an individual left and right channel connection made with a standard RCA cable. The other end is connected to the corresponding audio input on the back panel of the audio amplifier. An example of this is one of the source inputs on the back panel of a NuV0 audio distribution system, fig. 1. The 3.
IR Pass-Thru Fig . 4 The mini jack labeled “IR pass-thru" mini connection is used for connecting forwarded IR signals to an audio component connected to the auxiliary audio input. Using the Aux. Input Auxiliary Audio Source The T2 is equipped with an auxiliary audio input labeled “AUX IN.” This will accept an audio signal from an external component. This is most useful as an additional local source, or an additional source in a multi-zone audio system.
AM/FM Antenna Input Fig . 7 The T2 ships with a proprietary active AM/FM antenna. This antenna is designed to work only with the NuVo T2 series AM/FM tuners. It can be located up to 200 feet from the tuner location, and we recommend 75-ohm RG 6 coaxial cable with a standard F style connector on each end. Simply attach the cable to the connector at the bottom of the antenna, and into the “Antenna Input” on the T2, fig. 7.
Proper Location of the XM Antenna Fig . 9 Location of the XM antenna is critical to proper performance. There cannot be any obstructions between the antenna and the southern sky. This means that any possible interference from buildings, trees or other structures must be avoided. NV-T2FX Dual AM/FM/ Weather Band and XM Use any commercially available barrel connector or connection plate as shown in the diagram. The most common location is mounted to the eve of the home’s exterior.
Force Mono: This is a useful feature when a stereo pair of speakers is not available, or if the signal of a station is weak. Forcing the signal to mono eliminates a weak station from flipping in and out of stereo reception. If RDS display is OFF or if there is no valid RDS data, the display will indicate “MONO.” Menu Exit Menu: When you first enter the menu choices, the first choice is to exit the menu, which takes you back to normal turner operation. Version x.
Advanced AM/FM Settings The following menu selections are not necessary for standard tuner operation, but do provide a deeper level of control for those who need it. When you scroll to “Advanced Settings” in the menu, pressing the Select knob then accesses the following menu options: Operating Mode The T2 defaults to Stand-alone operation. This is the appropriate mode if it is being used with anything other than the NuVo Concerto System.
Audio Settings These selections are intended for AM, FM and XM stand-alone applications. They should be left at default settings for NuVo audio systems. These systems allow identical audio control on a per-zone basis. Bass EQ: Bass output can be adjusted +12 dB or down to 12 dB. The default setting is flat. This feature is useful for stand-alone use with an amplifier that does not have bass EQ control.
AUX Input Disable/Enable: The T2 has an auxiliary audio input that allows access through either of the tuners to an additional audio source. To use this you must first enable the input in the menu options. AUX Gain: The audio input from an auxiliary source can be adjusted to match the output of the T2's Tuner A and Tuner B. AUX Gain is selected by using the Select knob to scroll to that choice and press to enter.
III. Front Panel Menu Controls XM Name/Title: This is the default setting and displays the name of the artist or talk show host and title of the song or show being broadcast, fig. 19. Name: This display shows the name of the artist or show host being broadcast, fig.20. Title: This displays only the title of the song or show being broadcast, fig. 21. Category: This shows the station’s genre category as defined by XM, fig. 22. Most menu functions are identical to the AM/FM tuner with some exceptions.
IV. Stand-alone Front Panel Use of the T2 Tuning a Desired Station: Pressing the Select knob cycles through the tuning modes. Step Tune Mode: Each of the T2's tuners default to step tune mode. When the Select knob is turned clockwise (CW), the tuner will tune within the preset tuning standard (see Advanced AM/FM Settings, Regional Setup, pg. 14), and counter clockwise (CCW) to tune down. Fig.
Actual use of these data fields is not regulated, and they may vary significantly in content between stations. If you choose not to have RDS information displayed, pressing the “Display” button will then indicate “RDS receive OFF”. In this state, Stereo indication and a signal strength indicator will replace the PSN field on the top line, and only the station frequency will be displayed on a connected zone's Display Pad. Pressing the button again will restore RDS and display “RDS receive ON.
IV. Using the T2 with the Concerto NuVoNet Fig. 26 Making Sure Your Concerto Is Ready for NuVoNet Use Your Concerto System must be updated with at least software version 1.41 for proper NuVoNet communication with the T2. To check what Configurator version you currently have, open the Concerto Configurator software on your computer by double-clicking on the Configurator icon on the desktop. You will see a splash screen appear before the software opens. This lists the current software version.
Fig. 29 Making the Connection Prior to connecting to NuVoNet, the Concerto must have the correct Configuration version downloaded with the T2 representing two of the audio sources. Making the NuVoNet connection is done simply by connecting the “NuVoNet” output on the T2 to one of the “Peripheral Device” inputs on the Concerto EZ Port, fig. 28. This connection will then enable bidirectional NuVoNet communication with the Display Pads.
T2 AM/FM Configuration Software Basic setup and operation of the T2 is easily done from the front panel, the included T2RC3 remote, or the Concerto Display Pad. The T2 package includes the T2 Configurator setup software designed to quickly move you through the Tuners' setup options in a methodical fashion, and allow access to the more advanced setup features. Configurations are saved as files in the software's “Config” folder. Once complete, configurations can be used as templates for future installations.
2.2 Regional Setup: Depending on your geographic location, the tuner needs to be set for the proper tuning standard. The choices are USA and Canada, Western Europe, Australia, and New Zealand. Countries outside these geographic locations need the advanced custom setting (see Advanced Settings: 4.1 Custom Regional Setup). 2.4 Auto-On: In the event of loss of power, or if the T2 is unplugged, the tuners can be set with this check box to automatically turn on when power is returned. 2.4 Auto-On 2.
3.2 Add Bank: If you want to add a bank of 10 presets, the “Add Bank “ button will bring up a window that allows you to name the bank and automatically add it to the T2's presets. 3.2 Add Bank 3.4 Erase Bank Advanced Settings 3.3 Rename Bank: This button allows you to give a bank of presets a customized name. 3.3 Rename Bank The T2 software contains several specialized settings for more advanced setup.
4.1 Custom Regional Setup: Some countries operate at a tuning standard outside the four preset regions. The Custom setting allows specific parameters. One determining factor for tuning is the “Pre-emphasis”. The two choices for this a are 50µS (microseconds) and 75µS. The custom setting also allows for specific setting of the minimum and maximum tuning capability and the individual tuning steps for FM and AM. 4.1 Custom Regional Setup 4.
4.5 AUX Input: The T2 has an additional input that allows an external device to be controlled through the T2's IR pass through. When this input is enabled, the level of the signal input can be adjusted up or down to match the tuners' signal output level. 4.5 AUX Input 5.2 Level: This slider changes the signal level of the station. This is especially useful for stations, such as many Public Broadcasting System affiliates, that broadcast an uncompressed signal with lower volume level than other stations.
6.1 Categories Tab 6.3 AM Freqs 6.2 FM Freqs: This tab lists all the available frequencies within the FM band. When highlighted, the Frequency Information on the right side of the tab allows you to name and categorize each desired frequency in up to four different categories. The Category drop down menus will only display the categories you have turned on. 6.
7.2 Successful Download: When the download is complete a final window will appear indicating that all the information has downloaded successfully. Actual download time will vary based on your computer's processing capabilities. 7.2 Successful Download Troubleshooting Symptom Remedy I can't control the Tuner A or Tuner B from Display Pads, even though my Concerto Configuration has these tuners enabled as sources in the Concerto Configuration I loaded.
Troubleshooting Symptom Remedy The song name displayed on my Display Pad does not match what I'm hearing. The system will forward currently broadcasted Radio Data Service (RDS) RadioText data from the station tuned. Unfortunately, many stations do not keep this information current in all cases. When I use Seek or Scan tuning, the tuner misses some stations that I can receive in the manual, STEP tune mode.
