connecting a radio aerial

Your Solo Movie 2.1 is capable of superb radio reception,

but only if it is receiving a good quality transmission signal.

Solo Movie 2.1 is ﬁtted with either a DAB/FM or an AM/

FM receiver module, depending on the region where it

was sold. Independent of which radio module is ﬁtted

to your Solo Movie 2.1, however, a roof-mounted aerial

should be used wherever possible to obtain the best

reception.

Which aerial?

The type of aerial you should use depends on your

listening preferences and the local conditions. If you

listen exclusively to FM transmissions, for example, and

the FM signal strength is strong in your area, then a

simple omni-directional aerial mounted in your loft or

on your roof may be sufﬁcient. Listening to DAB in a

weak signal area will require a high-gain, roof-mounted

aerial.

For the best reception of both DAB and FM signals, an

aerial combiner box may be required (as shown in the

diagram opposite). This combines the signals received

by two aerials (one for DAB, the other for FM), into

one cable that then connects to Solo Movie 2.1. If an

aerial combiner is not used, the single aerial chosen

for both DAB and FM reception may not give optimum

performance in some regions.

For the best advice, we recommend that you contact

your local Arcam dealer or aerial installation expert.

DAB

If the transmission signal is strong in your area then the

supplied indoor aerial may be sufﬁcient (it should be hung

on a wall with both wires fully stretched out vertically). In

weak signal areas, an external aerial is desirable in order to

receive the highest number of services.

DAB transmissions can be in either ‘Band III’ or the ‘L-band’

(or both). To determine the transmission frequency in your

area, contact your dealer, or refer to www.WorldDAB.org.

In Band III transmission areas, use a multi-element Yagi

aerial if you are a long way from a transmitter, or use an

omnidirectional or folded dipole aerial if you are close to

more than one transmitter (in the U.K., a Band III region,

this should be mounted with the elements vertically, as the

transmissions are vertically polarised). If the DAB services

in your area are transmitted on L-band then consult your

dealer with regard to the best aerial to use.

Whether you decide to install an external aerial, or opt to

use the supplied ribbon cable, it should be connected to

the F-type (screw) connector labelled ‘FM’ on the rear of

the unit.

FM/AM

An FM aerial is required to receive VHF radio signals, and an AM aerial is required to receive AM/medium wave radio

signals.

FM aerial

Although an FM ribbon aerial is supplied as an accessory to Solo Movie 2.1 FM/AM-equipped units, for optimal FM

radio reception a roof- or loft-mounted aerial is advised as this will give superior reception. In some areas cable radio

may be available or, in an apartment building, a distributed aerial system may be installed. In either of these cases you

should have sockets in your home marked FM or VHF (do not use those marked TV); these should be connected to

the

FM or AERIAL INPUT connector on the rear of Solo Movie 2.1.

If you wish to use the supplied FM ribbon cable, mount this as high up as possible on a wall with the

‘T’-elements positioned horizontally. Try each usable wall of the room to see which gives best reception

and use tacks or adhesive tape to secure the aerial in a ‘T’ shape, but note that no tacks should come into

contact with the internal wire of the aerial.

AM aerial

An AM loop aerial is supplied as an accessory to Solo Movie 2.1 FM/AM-equipped units. This should be attached to the

AM aerial inputs on the rear of Solo Movie 2.1 with one end connected to ‘AM’ and the other to ‘Ground’ (it does not

matter which way round this aerial is ﬁtted). Make sure that the aerial is positioned well away from Solo Movie 2.1 itself,

TVs, computers and other sources of RF ‘noise’. Rotate the aerial to discover which position gives the best reception.

In areas of weak reception, or when Solo Movie 2.1 is in use inside a steel-framed building (such as an apartment

building), a wire between 3 and 5 metres long can be used to strengthen reception. Mount this high up outside the

building (if possible) and connect one end of this wire to the ‘AM’ part of AM aerial input, in addition to the loop aerial

supplied (do not disconnect the AM loop aerial).

2. Push the tab into the open slot in the base of the

stand. Press until the tab clicks home.

3. Connect the leads to the AM socket at the rear

of Solo Movie 2.1. Rotate the aerial’s stand until

you obtain the best reception.

1. Release the tie-wrap and unwind the twisted

lead. Fold the plastic stand forward through the

loop frame.

Radio interference

Solo Movie 2.1 is an audio device containing

microprocessors and other digital electronics. It has

been designed to very high standards of electromagnetic

compatibility.

If Solo Movie 2.1 causes interference to radio or

television reception (which can be determined by

switching Solo Movie 2.1 off and on), the following

measures should be taken:

< Re-orient the receiving antenna or route the

antenna cable of the effected receiver as far as

possible from Solo Movie 2.1 and its cabling.

< Relocate the receiver with respect to Solo Movie

2.1.

< Connect the receiver and Solo Movie 2.1 to

different mains outlets.

If the problem persists, please contact your Arcam dealer.
