Searching for services

When using the tuner for the ﬁ rst time we recommend that

you perform a search to ﬁ nd all available services in your

area. Once you have done this, you may wish to repeat a

search periodically to discover if any new ensembles (groups

of services) have gone on air. If you move to another area you

should also perform a new search.

Selecting a search region

Access the ‘Search Region’ menu by pressing the MENU button

three times. Use the rotary controller to select the world

region that best describes your location; the options are UK,

Canada or Rest of World. When the desired region is displayed,

press SELECT. The tuner takes a few seconds to reconﬁ gure

its internal software before automatically switching out of the

Search Region menu. You should now perform a search for

available services.

To perform a search

Press SEARCH on the front panel, then SELECT when

prompted. A bar graph will show the progress of the search.

This can take up to three minutes depending on the search

region you have selected. The search can be cancelled at any

time by pressing any front panel button or rotating the rotary

controller.

If no service is found after the search then either your aerial

is insufﬁ cient for your location or, you may be outside of the

covered area for DAB services. If this is the case contact either

your Arcam dealer or Arcam customer services.

Selecting a service

Turn the rotary controller to scroll through the available

services and choose the one you wish to listen to.

What happens next depends on the setting of the Selection

mode (see page 7). If set to ‘Auto’, the displayed service

is selected after 2.5 seconds; if set to ‘Manual’, the display

returns to the current service after ﬁ ve seconds unless

SELECT

is pressed.

>> is shown in the top right corner of the display when

a service is selected, a secondary service is also available.

Moving the rotary controller clockwise one more click will

display this secondary service: press SELECT to listen to it.

Programming a preset

First select the service you wish to assign to a preset. Now

press STORE 1–8 or STORE 9–16 and then brieﬂ y press the

appropriate preset button to store the service.

It is not possible to assign secondary services to presets, only

primary ones, since secondary services are often broadcast on

a temporary basis and they may change from day to day.

Selecting a preset

To select presets 1 to 8, press and release the corresponding

button. To select presets 9 to 16, press and hold the

corresponding button for two seconds.

Changing the display mode

The bottom line of the display can be set to one of four modes:

Programme type (a brief label), Dynamic label (scrolling text),

Data rate (shows service data rate and stereo/mono mode)

and Signal quality meter (a bar graph). See page 7 for further

information.

Press

DISPLAY MODE to cycle through the modes.

Compression mode

Press the MENU button once to access the compression menu.

From this, dynamic range compression (DRC) can be applied to

the audio signal within the tuner, provided the broadcaster has

made it available for that service. The amount of compression

is adjustable between ‘off’ and ‘5’ (the maximum amount).

To set the compression level, turn the rotary controller until the

required compression level is displayed and press

SELECT. The

tuner leaves the compression menu and displays the service

name. ‘C1’ to ‘C5’ is shown in the top right corner of the

display, according to the compression level selected.

To exit this menu without making any changes, press the

button until the tuner reverts to displaying the service name.

Note that the selected level of compression is applied to all

services where compression data is made available by the

broadcaster. It is not possible to store different compression

levels for different stations.

Service sort menu

Services can be sorted by name or by programme type. To

change between ‘sort by name’ and ‘sort by programme type’,

press the MENU button twice to access the Service Sort menu

and turn the rotary controller. Press SELECT to conﬁ rm the

setting: the tuner reverts to displaying the service name.

To exit this menu without making any changes, press the

button until the tuner displays the service name.
