Connecting to other equipment
Interconnect cables
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 for details of suitable cables.
Connecting your tuner to your amplifi er
Audio outputs 6
Two pairs of identical outputs are provided.
Connect one set to your amplifi er’s tuner input or any other
line-level input using suitable high quality interconnect cables.
Ensure that the left and right audio outputs from the tuner are
connected to the same left and right inputs on your amplifi er.
The second set of audio outputs can be used to connect to a
second amplifi er set up for ‘multi room’ use, or routed to a tape
recorder for ‘off air’ recording.
Connecting to a power supply
Wrong plug?
Check that the plug supplied with the unit fi ts your supply and
that your mains supply voltage agrees with the voltage setting
switch (120V or 230V) indicated on the rear panel of the unit
2 .
If your mains supply voltage is different, switch the voltage
selector across using a small screwdriver.
Mains lead
The appliance is normally supplied with a moulded mains plug
already fi tted to the lead. If for any reason the plug needs to
be removed, it must be disposed of immediately and securely,
as it is a potential shock hazard when inserted into the mains
socket. Should you require a new mains lead, contact your
Arcam dealer.
Plugging in
Push the plug (IEC line socket) of the power cable supplied with
the unit into the POWER INLET socket 1 in the back of the unit.
Make sure it is pushed in fi rmly.
Put the plug on the other end of the cable into your power
supply socket and switch the socket on.
Custom installation features
The T61 has a number of useful features that make it ideal for
a custom installation, where the tuner is fully integrated with
a specialist control system or operated by a programmable
remote control.
Remote control input 3
A rear panel input that receives modulated carrier based IR
commands in RC5 format. The input is suitable for connection
to a simple IR eye or to an external controller.
Use of this socket disables the front panel IR eye.
Trigger input 4
The trigger socket allows the tuner to be remotely switched
in and out of standby. The primary front panel POWER switch
must be in, ‘on’, for this mode.
Apply a +12V DC voltage for ‘on’, the power indicator glows
green; 0V for ‘standby’, the power indicator glows red.
Note that use of this socket requires a 12V signal before the
tuner can be switched fully on.
Infrared (IR) remote commands
The T61 responds to a set of Philips RC-5 codes in addition to
those available on the supplied handset, which is kept simple
for ease of use.
Advanced programmable control devices, such as the Philips
‘Pronto’ and other system controllers, can be set up to
use the additional codes. Refer to the instructions for your
programmable device for details.
A table of IR commands is provided on page 10 of this
Handbook.
