However we appreciate that some of our customers require more technical information. When extra technical information is available you will see the following at the end of the section [Want more info ? See technical notes on page 6] There are 19 safety items set out on the back page of this handbook. For your own safety, and to ensure that your tuner works properly, we strongly recommend that you read and follow them. Installation CONNECTING TO A POWER SUPPLY WRONG PLUG ? Check that your mains supply voltage agrees with the voltage setting on the rear panel of the unit just above the mains inlet socket. If your mains supply voltage is different, consult your Arcam dealer or distributor or Arcam Customer Support in the U.K. on +44 (0)1223 203203. Push the plug of the supplied mains lead into the power inlet socket on the back of the unit. Make sure it is pushed in firmly. Push the plug on the other end of the cable to your mains supply socket. [Want more info ? See technical note I on page 6] This unit is double insulated and does not require an earth. That is why there is no centre (earth) pin in the mains inlet socket of the tuner. CONNECTING TO OTHER EQUIPMENT Note: 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 or Arcam customer support for details of suitable cables. AUDIO OUTPUTS There are two pairs of identical outputs provided. Connect one of these to your amplifier’s TUNER input using a suitable pair of interconnect cables. Insert the red phono plug into the socket labelled "R" for right and the other phono plug into the socket labelled "L" for left. The second set of audio outputs can be used to connect to a second amplifier set up for "multi room" use or routed to a tape recorder for "off air" recording. REMOTE CONTROL IN/OUT If you are using the Alpha 10 tuner with an Alpha 10 integrated amplifier you can connect the "Remote Out" socket of the amplifier to the "Remote In" socket of the tuner with a 3.5mm jack to jack lead.This will enable you to control many functions of the tuner by pointing the remote control at the amplifier and the tuner could then be hidden out of sight. Note: It is not possible to control the amplifier by connecting the "Remote Out" of the tuner to the "Remote In" of the amplifier AM/FM TUNER AUDIO INPUT If you wish, the audio output from an FM or FM/AM tuner or receiver can be connected to this to save an input on the amplifier When the Alpha 10 tuner is switched off or set to bypass mode, this input will be routed straight to the audio output of the Alpha 10 tuner and so allowing signals to pass straight through the Alpha 10 tuner DIGITAL OUTPUTS Both optical and co-axial SPDIF (Sony Philips Digital Interface) sockets are provided. Connect these outputs to the digital inputs of an external DAC (Digital to Analogue Convertor) or the Alpha 10 amplifier with the Dave module fitted, or digital recording equipment e.g. DAT CD Recorder or Minidisc. The digital output data includes Serial Copy Management System (SCMS) codes. This allows you to make one generation of a digital recording but further digital copies will be prevented. AERIAL INPUT SOCKET The coaxial cable from the aerial should be fitted with a BNC plug. Connect this to the aerial input socket on the back of the tuner; rotating the front part of the plug to lock it in place. D INSTALLATION ADDITIONAL REAR PANEL FUNCTIONS Data service switch: DAB makes provision for providing dedicated text and other data services in the multiplex datastream.This switch can be used to prevent data services from appearing among the available services on the tuner's display. The tuner cannot process data services by itself so it makes sense to leave this switch in to disable them. RDI out: This is an optical data output that may allow future expansion to use certain data services via an outboard device such as a personal computer. RDI = Radio Data Interface. The Data Service switch will need to be out to access the data streams from these services. SETTING UP THE AERIAL Your new Arcam tuner is capable of superb reception but only if it is receiving a good quality transmission signal. As the signal is so important for good reception we have created a quick reference guide to setting up the aerial. We recommend that a roof mounted aerial is used where possible, to ensure the best possible performance. The best aerial to use is a Band 3 (multi-element Yagi) array, if you are a long way from a transmitter, or an omnidirectional or folded dipole if you are close to more than one transmitter In the U.K. this should be mounted with all elements vertical as the transmissions are vertically polarised. Be sure to use a good quality coaxial cable such as URM43, CT-100 or similar For band 3 use you can use either 50 ohm or 75 ohm cable provided it is good quality. Alway...
