T2FAM-EX Quick Setup Guide for Use With NuVoNet

The T2FAM-EX Dual Tuner is the perfect broadcast music solution for whole-home audio. The internal NuVoNet capability of the T2FAM-EX allows it to easily communicate in real time with the NuVo Grand Concerto and Essentia E6G Control Pads. The following is a step-by-step guide for setting up and installing the T2FAM-EX for use with the Grand Concerto and Essentia NuVoNet Suites.

Step 1: Upon unpacking your T2FAM-EX Tuner, establish what audio inputs, 1-6, the T2's A and B audio outputs will represent. Plug t h e T 2 in t o a n A C po we r s o u r c

Step 2: Attach the audio outputs A and B of the Tuner to the appropriate numbered inputs on the Grand Concerto or Essentia S ys t e m.

Step 3: Connect the CAT5 from the NuVoNet output on the rear panel of the Tuner to one of the Device inputs on the Grand Concerto EZ Port or the Essentia Allport. This will enable communication to the System's Control Pads. Note that a single CAT5 connection provides information from both tuners A and B. A final CAT5 Connection should then be made to the NuVoNet CAT5 input on the back panel of the Grand Concerto or Essenita main amplifier for the NuVoNet RJ45 on the Grand Concerto EZ Port or the Essentia Allport. This completes the necessary connection for the NuVoNet communication.

Step 4: Complete the antenna connection on the back panel of the Tuner using standard RG6 coaxial cable. Quad shielded cable is recommended. When the antenna is connected, the Tuner will begin receiving a signal for both Tuners A and B.

Step 5: When the Tuner is plugged into an AC power source the front panel display will move through a boot procedure. When this procedure is complete a message, Uninitialized State Detected will appear.

Step 6: Following the prompt from the display, touch the OK button on the Tuner's front panel control. This will display a regional tuning selection, USA and Canada, Western Europe, Australia, and New Zealand. Make to appropriate selection to match the Tuner's g e o g r a p h ic l o c a t io n .

Step 7: Touching OK on the front panel controls will prompt a second screen on the display. This will read, Set Tuner A Mode, Standalone, Source 1, Source 2, Source 3, Source 4, Source 5, and Source 6. The top selection, Standalone, will be highlighted. This choice is used for any purpose that is not NuVoNet communication. Using the down arrow on the far right of the front panel controls, scroll to the desired source input number, and touch OK to select. The display will automatically go to Tuner B setup. Repeat the steps for setting Tuner A. If NuVoNet is not connected or all available sources have been assigned, then the source selections will be grayed out.

Step 8: When the desired source number is selected, the display will return to the first screen. Both outputs A and B will display the lowest AM band frequency by default. At this point full tuning capability can be done from the Tuner's front panel, or an addressed NuVo Control Pad.

Step 9: When both Tuner outputs are set, make sure the system to make sure the NuVoNet and CAT5 connection between the Tuners back panel and the system to make sure the system to make sure the Tuner's back panel and the system to make sure the Tuner's back panel and the system to make sure the Tuner's back panel and the system to make sure the Tuner's back panel and the system to make sure the Tuner's back panel and the system to make sure the Tuner's back panel and the system to make sure the Tuner's back panel and the system to make sure the Tuner's back panel and the system to make sure the Tuner's back panel and the system to wake

Setting the Audio Outputs for NuVoNet or Standalone use (Fig. 2)

The outputs A and B are individually set from the front panel display of the T2FAM-EX. When the tuner is initially plugged into an AC power source, a short setup wizard will appear on the display. A message, Uninitialized State Detected (Press OK) will appear. When OK is pressed, the prompt is to select a regional tuning standard. The choices are USA/Canada, Western Europe, Australia, and New Zealand. Use the Up and Do w n a r r o w s OK button to select. Once regional tuning has been selected, the display will prompt for the use of each output A and B.

+Output A will highlight automatically. Using the Up and Down arrows on the front panel, move the highlight to the appropriate use of the tuner output and touch OK. The choices a r e Stand Alone, Source 1, Source 2, Source 3, Source 4, Source

5, and Source 6. For any use other than with the Essentia E6G or Grand Concerto Systems, select Stand-alone. This will require IR or serial control of the T2FAM-EX's functions. Highlighting the appropriate Source number input for the NuVo system and touching the OK button sets NuVoNet communication. Once Output A is set, the highlight will move to Output B. For operation, both outputs A and B must be set as Stand Alone or as a NuVoNet Source.

When the Tuner's outputs are set, they will return to AM 530, or the minimum AM band setting for the selected regional tuning parameters. At this point the T2FAM-EX is ready for either NuVoNet communication or standalone use, depending on the s e t t i n g ma d e f o r b o t h o u t p u

AM/FM Antenna Installation (Fig. 3)

T h e T 2 F A M - antenna. The antenna is designed to work actively with the tuner using standard 75-ohm coaxial cable. Quad-shielded cable is recommended for this purpose. The advantage of the active antenna technology is the remote location capability, up to 200 feet from the T2FAM-EX location without the need for an external power supply. The termination at the antenna and tuner is a standard F style connector. No software application or configuration is necessary beyond making the cable connection at each end.

Note, for best results, the T2FAA antenna should be located as high as possible, either in an attic or outside. If you choose to use a third party antenna, other than the T2FAA, you must use the forced off setting from the menu to allow the signal to pass through to the T2FAM-EX, (see Section II. T2FAM-EX Front Panel Menu, Antenna Power, pg. 11).

Connecting for NuVoNet Use (Fig. 4)

Once audio outputs A and B are set for NuVoNet, the T2FAM-EX is ready to communicate in real time with the Grand Concerto or Essentia E6G audio distribution systems. To complete the connection, all that is necessary is a single CAT5 cable from the NuVoNet output on the T2FAM-EX's back panel to one of the Device inputs on either the Grand Concerto EZ Port or the Essentia E6G Allport. Since the outputs of the Tuner must be set as a specific source number input for NuVoNet communication, the number of the Device connection used is irrelevant to the system's operation. Once the connection is complete, the tuner is ready to fully communicate with N uV oN et .

IR Control of the T2FAM-EX (Fig. 5)

The T2FAM-EX can be used without NuVoNet as a standalone AM/FM tuner. It is necessary to set the audio outputs at Standalone for IR control to be active (see Section I. Setting the Audio Outputs for NuVoNet or Standalone Use, p g

offers three methods for IR control. One is to take the IR output of your control device using a mono 3.5mm patch cable into the Direct IR input on the back panel of the T2FAM-EX. Tuners A and B feature discrete commands, allowing both tuners to be controlled independently from one input. The second method for IR control is to attach an IR emitter over the IR receiver on the front panel, and the third method is to aim the remote control at the IR receiver located on the front p a n e l .

RS232 Serial Control

The T2FAM-EX features a bidirectional DB9 port for serial control. This enables the tuner to be controlled via a third party home automation system and will in turn issue present state commands back to the controller. Potentially, all aspects of NuVoNet communication can be emulated using the serial control capability. The necessary protocol for serial use can be downloaded from the NuVo website ProZone at www.nuvotechnologies.com/prozone.

T2FAM-EX Options (Fig. 22): T u n i n the T2FAM-EX are easily set from any Control Pad using this menu. There are three sub-menu choices:

Edit Presets (Fig. 23): This allows the user to establish the current channel or station frequency as a preset. The menu provides five banks of 20 presets each. Choosing a preset bank will then give you the option of saving the current channel. To add a preset to favorites, highlight and select an existing preset. This will bring up a second menu with several choices. Delete Preset, will erase the highlighted preset from the list. Add to Favorites places the highlighted preset into the Favorites menu available at each Control Pad. Move Up and Move Down move the highlighted preset up or down within the list of preset. Move to Top and Move to Bottom place the highlighted preset in the number 1 position or to the last available position.

Seek Tune: Selecting Seek Tune turns the frequency seek function on and off. When check marked, seek is active. This is an AM/FM function that allows the Tuner to search within the selected band until a strong signal is found. The level of signal necessary for the seek function can be set within the T 2 F A M -

IV. Using the Tuner Configurator Software

The Configurator Software is tabbed, wizard style software that easily moves you through the T2FAM-EX setup and implementation as a NuVoNet source or as a standalone source controllable by IR or Serially. Within the Configurator you can set up the source address and presets for an installation and download the information to the T2FAM-EX's FLASH memory prior to its installation. Its non-volatile memory will retain the configuration indefinitely while the Tuner is unplugged.

1.0 Start (Fig. 24)

The start tab allows you to load an existing configuration or create a new one. You can also retrieve and edit a configuration from an existing Tuner. When the computer is connected to the Tuner via its RS232 port, you can click on Retrieve Configuration from Tuner and make any necessary edits. When the edited version is downloaded to the Tuner, the previous configuration will be overwritten.

To start a new configuration or open an existing configuration, click on the Load Existing or Create New Configuration button. The File Name field allows you to give a new configuration a new name.
