Region Select Switch

The

Region

switch is found on the rear panel; it selects operation for either N. America

(

US

) or most European countries (

EU

). It changes tuning increments and the FM

de-emphasis curve for correct frequency response.

Reset Switch - See Trouble Shooting

The reset switch is located behind a small unmarked hole in the rear panel to the left
of the RS232 Control connector. In the unlikely event the T 3 displays random letters or
numbers or fails to respond when you press its buttons, its control microprocessor has
become confused and “locked up.” To restore operation, you’ll need to press the
reset switch to “unlock” it.

The reset switch is recessed to prevent accidental operation, so you’ll need a toothpick
or other non-metal tool to insert into the hole. Don’t use a straightened paper clip
because it might cause a short circuit and damage parts.

Push gently to avoid damaging the reset switch. After pressing reset, the front panel
display will show RESET and the entire programmed preset memory will be erased.
All 30 FM presets will revert to 108 and all 30 AM presets will revert to 1720.

YOU SHOULD KNOW

Losing Your Memory
The T 3 memory bank requires some electrical current to maintain its preset settings.
Therefore, the T 3 should be plugged into an AC outlet that is not switched off when the
system is turned off. Its memory will remain for about one week without AC power so presets
aren’t lost during brief power outages that might result from weather conditions.
