POSITIONING THE UNIT

Always place the tuner on a level, firm surface.

SETTING UP THE TUNER

AM STEP SWITCH ⑤

The AM tuning 'step size' needs to be set according to your location. This is done using the switch on the rear panel: set it to 10kHz if you are in North America, or 9kHz anywhere else. This switch also ensures correct reproduction of FM broadcasts for your location.

AM AERIAL

An AM aerial is required to receive AM/Medium Wave radio signals.

An external AM loop aerial is supplied as an accessory. This should be attached to the AM Antenna inputs with one end connected to AM

⑨ and the other to Ground ⑧. It does not matter which way round this aerial is fitted. Rotate the aerial to discover which position gives the best reception.

In areas of weak reception or when the receiver is used inside a steel framed building (such as an apartment building) you can use a wire between 3 and 5 metres long to strengthen reception. Mount this high up outside the building, if possible, and connect one end of this wire to the AM antenna input ⑨ as well as the loop aerial supplied. DO NOT DISCONNECT THE LOOP AERIAL.

FM AERIAL

An FM aerial is required to receive VHF radio signals. An external FM ribbon aerial is supplied as an accessory.

For optimal FM radio reception a roof or loft mounted aerial is advised. For your own safety it is recommended that a roof top aerial is fitted by an experienced contractor. Your Arcam dealer should be able to put you in contact with an aerial installer. A contractor will be able to tune your aerial to the nearest FM transmitter. In an apartment building an aerial system may already be installed. If this is the case you should have sockets in your home marked FM or VHF (do not use those marked TV).

The 'T' shaped wire aerial (dipole design) supplied should give reasonably good reception. Mount this aerial as high up as possible on a wall with the elements positioned horizontally. Try each usable wall of the room to see which gives best reception. Use tacks or adhesive tape to secure the aerial in a T-shape. 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.

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. Arcam do not recommend any particular type or brand of interconnect cable.

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 amplifier.

The second set of audio outputs can be used to connect to a second amplifier set up for 'multiroom' 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 (115V 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 T3I 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 infrared (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 T31 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.

See 'Storing a preset' and 'Deleting unused presets', below.

TUNE MODE

Automatic tuning:

Press the ▲ or ▼ buttons on the front panel (or < or > on the remote control handset) for longer than one second to engage automatic tuning. The tuner searches for a radio station signal of sufficient strength and stops. To skip to the next station, press one of the buttons again. Automatic tuning is available for both the FM and AM bands.

Manual tuning:

Tap the ▲ or ▼ buttons for manual tuning. This can be used for tuning to a specific frequency. It is also useful if you are trying to select a station that is too weak for the auto search mode.

Regardless of the mode used to tune your T31, when it is accurately tuned to a station 'TUNED' lights up in the display.

STORING A PRESET

To store a preset, tune to the radio station you wish to store. Press the STORE button: this causes 'PRESET STORE' to flash in the display. Now select the preset number you wish to assign to the station using the preset memory buttons or the ▲ and ▼ buttons on the front panel. Press the STORE button again.

Once the preset is stored, the display reverts to show the station name (if RDS information is transmitted) or its frequency.

To quit the memory function without storing a preset, leave the tuner controls untouched for ten seconds. It is also possible to overwrite a stored station by saving another in its place. There are thirty presets available for FM use and sixteen for AM use.

Your presets are retained when the T31 is disconnected from the mains supply.

DELETING AN UNUSED PRESET

Press the RDS and STORE buttons on the front panel, wait about three seconds, then select the preset number you want to delete using the ▲ and ▼ buttons, followed by the RDS button.

The display briefly shows 'DELETED' and '-' is shown in place of the preset number. You can reactivate a deleted preset number by storing a station in the normal way.

RDS: RADIO DATA SYSTEM

The Arcam T31 supports RDS Programme Service and RDS Radio Text on FM broadcasts.

When a station carrying RDS information is selected 'RDS' lights up in the display and shortly afterwards the station's RDS name (e.g. 'BBC R3') is shown.

Press the RDS button to view any RDS text information (if a station is not transmitting text information, the display briefly indicates 'NO TEXT' and reverts to show the station name).

Press RDS again to display the station's frequency.

Pressing RDS a third time returns you to a display of the station name.

If the RDS button is pressed while tuned to a non-RDS station, the display shows 'NO NAME' for three seconds before reverting to the default display.

ENTERING STATION NAMES MANUALLY

Station names can be entered and saved for preset AM stations, and for FM stations where RDS is not available. Station names can be up to eight characters long.

First select the band and the preset station you wish to name. Then press and hold the RDS button for more than two seconds. An 'underscore' line should appear blinking in the first position of the frequency display area. Use the ▲ and ▼ buttons beneath the display to scroll through the available alphabet, numbers and special characters available until you reach your wanted letter or character. Press the TUNING button to confirm that character. The 'underscore' line will then move to the next position. Repeat this process to enter the required name. If you want to edit a character later, use the
