I. Installing the NV-T2 Dual Tuner Fig . 1 Stereo Audio Connections AUX IN AUX IN OUT USE ONLY NuVo NV-T2PAS POWERED ANTENNA SYSTEM 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.
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 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 Seek Threshold (AM/FM Use Only) This sets the effective station signal strength for seek and scan tuning. With either of these modes, the tuner will automatically tune up until it receives a good signal. You can set the definition a good signal with the seek threshold feature, fig. 13. FM, AM, WX (Weather Band): All three available bands are set the same way, but are adjusted individually. Scroll with the Select knob to the desired band and press the knob to select it.
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 channel’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 channel: 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 IR PASS-THRU Model NV-T2DF Dual XM Tuner NuVo Techonlogies LLC• Cincinnati Ohio USA www.nuvotechnologies.com NuVoNet RS 232 IR INPUT IN TE RTEK NT I Setting Up the Tuner for NuVoNet The T2 must be set for one of the Concerto source inputs 1-6. This can be done at the front panel when the tuner is first turned on, in the T2 Configurator software, or through the front panel advanced menu.
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 The T2 package includes a PC Windows based 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. 2.0 Config The Config tab is for the initial setup, which determines basic tuner operation. 1.
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 3.5 XM Presets: Assigning presets for XM is very simple. When either the T2XF or T2DX products, which contain the XM tuner modules, are selected in the Config tab, an XM Preset tab is available.
4.2 Tuning Parameters: This section determines how the T2 tunes up and down. Seek/Scan Levels for each band, FM, AM, and Weatherband sets the signal strength parameter for searching stations. The lowest level 0 causes the tuner to stop at any frequency with a very low signal. Level 4 (High), stops only when a very strong signal is detected. The factory default is Level 2 (Medium), which searches for a moderate signal.
4.4 Audio: Output Level increases or decreases the level of signal from the audio output of each tuner. This setting and balance, treble, and bass are best left at the default settings for use with an audio distribution system such as NuVo systems, that have built-in equalization capability. You may want to make adjustments when the T2 is being used as a stand-alone component with an amplifier. 4.4 Audio Output Level 4.
6.0 Categories A unique feature of the T2 is the ability to set up listening categories. These are genre selections that automatically tune through stations within that genre. Typical categories are sports, talk, rock, and classical. The T2 software has 38 preloaded categories available. These are easily turned off if you do not intend to use them, or new categories can be added to best fit the user's needs. Every radio market area has a list of AM and FM stations available through a website, www.
7.0 Update System 7.1 Download Configuration: The final step in the setup is to download the configuration to the T2 via either its Rs232 serial port, or the USB port. At download the system gives three options: Download configuration to both tuners, or to either Tuner A or Tuner B. When you select an option, a window Will appear with a download progress bar. 7.2 Successful Download: When the download is complete a final window will appear indicating that all the information has downloaded successfully.
Troubleshooting Symptom Remedy When I use Seek or Scan tuning, the tuner misses some stations that I can receive in the manual STEP tune mode. Congratulations, your listening area is relatively free from interference! You should lower the “seek threshold” by going to MENU Adv. Settings Seek Threshold, selecting FM Threshold or AM Theshold as appropriate, and rotating the SELECT knob counter clockwise. This will move the display indicator toward LOW.
