The AVr360 is fitted with an internal AM/FM tuner
and a DAB (digital radio) tuner. DAB broadcasts are not
available in all locations.
This section deals with tuner operation, for information
on setting up the tuner and installing aerials, see page E-16.
When a tuner input is selected, the OSD shows a list
of radio presets plus an information panel giving all
available information about the current frequency (for
AM and FM) or station (for DAB).
The front panel will also give the same information,
pressing the iNFO key will cycle through the various
items of information:
AM
• Processing mode (default)
• Frequency
• Signal strength
FM
• Processing mode (default)
• radiotext (if available)
• Programme type (if available)
• Signal strength
DAB
• Processing mode (default)
• radiotext (if available)
• Programme type
• Signal quality
• Bit-rate of transmission
Tuning/channel Selection
When switching to the internal TUNER source, the
AVr360 enters the last used tuner band, be it AM / FM
/ DAB (if fitted). repeatedly pressing T cycles through
the available tuner bands on your AVr360.
FM/aM analogue radio
Frequency tuning on FM and AM radio is done using
the < and > buttons on the Cr102 remote control in
TUN device mode. Individual presses move the frequency
down and up one step. If you press and hold either of
the tuning buttons for two seconds, the tuner scans to
the next strong signal. You can stop a scan at any time by
pressing one of the tuning buttons again.
In Europe, the internal FM radio is capable of receiving
rDS (radio Data System) radiotext signals that are
transmitted on some stations. The rDS information
typically includes the radio station name, the music or
speech genre as well as additional information related to
the current programme. On music stations this is often
information on the currently playing track.
dab digital radio
If your AVr360 is fitted with the optional DAB tuner
you will need to scan for available stations before being
able to listen to them.
To scan for DAB stations, first select the DAB tuner then
press and hold O until the display indicates scanning
has started. The AVr360 will then scan all the DAB
radio frequencies and compile a list of the stations that
are available.
When the scan is complete, you can scroll through the
station list using the < and > buttons on the Cr102
remote control. To listen to the currently displayed
station press the O. If you do not press O within
two seconds, the display will revert to displaying the
currently playing station.
internet radio
Please see the network/USB Operation section on
page E-45 for details of internet radio operation.
Saving and selecting Presets
Preset selection uses the B and C keys on the
remote to browse and O to select the preset when the
Cr102 is in TUN device mode.
Up to 50 presets can be stored and these can be from
any band, for example Preset 1 could be an AM station,
preset two a DAB station, etc. Pressing the Ok key causes
the next available preset number to be displayed, then
pressing the Ok key again stores the current frequency/
channel in that preset. If a different preset number is
required, press the B or C keys until the desired
number is displayed before pressing the Ok key for a
second time.
deleting Presets
When in tuner browse mode (using B and , to
scroll through the presets), the yellow button on the
Cr102 remote is used to delete the currently highlighted
(but not playing) station or frequency.
