DEALING WITH HUM AND NOISE

Hum and noise sometimes may prove a challenge in audio systems, Note these considerations to help prevent hum and noise problems: + Power all your system's audio component from AC outlets originating from the same circuit of your house wiring. As far as possible, power all audio components from the same outlet, or adjacent outlets on the same circuit. t may be useful to power video displays (and computers!) from outlets an another circuit, especially if that circuit is supplied from the other leg" ofthe house wiring. + Do not bundie analog audio cables with AC power cables, or with coaxial digital-audio cables. It is best iFthey cross at right angles ifthey must be in close proximity. + Employ high-quality, well-shielded audio cable throughout, and ensure that all connections are secure. + A pencil-eraser can be used to burnish copper- and gold-plated contacts to ensure good, low-resistance contact; specialized contact- cleaners can also be useful. Avoïd unnecessary unplugging and re-plugging since the gold (or copper) contact plating of typical cable connectors, even very high-quality ones, is very thin and easily worn. Track down hum/noise problems one component at a time, working backwards from the C 715. That is 1 Connect the speakers to the C 715 only, and check for hum.

2. Then connect one component only (a CD player for example) alone,

with no other components connected and check for hum: 3 Connect additional components, one at a time, to the C 715 and check for hum. At each stage, ifhum/noise appears, examine the audio cabling and AC- power routing of the new component. In some cases, moving the new companent's AC cord to a different outlet, or installing à ground-lift (3-to-2- prong adapter) on its power cord, will eliminate the hum

CHOOSING THE FM MODES

In FM mode, the front panel (FM MODE] key is a dual-purpose control. In the normal position, ('STEREO" and "TUNED'icons are illuminated in the VFD) only the stations with a strong signal can be listened to and the noise between stations is muted. Pressing the [FM MODE] button again (STEREO'icon is extinguished; only “TUNED"is illuminated) allows distant and potentially noisy stations to be received. Noise is reduced ifthe FM station signal level is less than the FM stereo threshold (since mono FM is inherently less noise-prone) though at the sacrifice of stereo effect.

RDS OPERATION Radio Data System (RDS) transmits station call signs or network information, station program type, text messages about the station or specifics of à musical selection and the time. Not every FM station incorporates RDS in its broadcast signal. In most areas you will find from one to several RDS-enabled stations, but it is by no means impossible that your favorite stations will not be broadcasting RDS data

When an RDS-enabled FM broadcast is tuned, a" RDS' icon wil illuminate in the C 715 VFD. Toggle [RDS MODE] to show the following PROGRAM SERVICE “Program Service" will blink for about 3 seconds and then the program service name or a stations name will be displayed."P S'which stands for “Program Service" will be displayed in the upper left side of the VFD.

Program Type (PTY) allows users to find similar programming by genre Please find the section below about'PROGRAM TYPE (PTY)"for more information about RDS Program Type.

A Radio Text message containing special information from the RDS station will scroll through the VFD (up to 64 symbols can be displayed. it will take 3 takes seconds for the text message to appear. In the meantime, the word “RDS RADIO TEXT"will flash in the display. When available, the Radio Text is then displayed. “RT'which stands forRadio Text’ will be displayed in the upper left side of the VFD.

Until now, analogue radio signals such as FM or AM have been subject to numerous kinds ofinterference on their way from the transmitter to your radio. These problems were caused by mountains, high-rise buildings and weather conditions. With Digital Audio Broadcast (DAB), you can now receive CD-Ike quality radio programs without any annoying interference and signal distortion. You get far more robust reception and virtually hiss or crack free sound with DAB as long as you are within a good coverage area With DAB, the listener can scroll through a list of available stations - then instantly tune to the station of his choice. There is no need either to remember channel frequencies. All broadcasts are selected by simply selecting the service name.

Connect the supplied F-type DAB antenna to the DAB antenna input. The supplied antenna is for internal use only. Extend the lead. Fix it to the wall in a vertical direction. The strength ofthe incoming signal can be shown on the VFD by pressing the [TUNE MODE/SELECT] button. The more segments are visible in the lower display line, the stronger the signal. By changing the position of the antenna, you can increase the signal strength. You can also opt for an external antenna.
