AM/FM Antenna Installation (Fig. 3)
The T2SIR is shipped with the NV-T2FAA active AM/FM
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 T2SIR 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 T2SIR, (see section III. T2SIR Front Panel Menu,
Antenna Power, pg. 14).
Connecting for NuVoNet Use (Fig. 4)
Once audio outputs A and B are set for NuVoNet, the T2SIR 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 T2SIR’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 NuVoNet.
IR Control of the T2SIR (Fig. 5)
The T2SIR can be used without NuVoNet as a standalone
AM/FM/SIRIUS-Ready Tuner. The IR receiver is always active,
however control through IR is typically done in Standalone
mode, (see section I. Setting the Audio Outputs for NuVoNet or
Standalone use, pg. 7).
