connecting a radio aerial

Your Solo Movie 5.1 is capable of superb radio

reception, but only if it is receiving a good quality

transmission signal.

Solo Movie 5.1 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 5.1, 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 5.1. 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 5.1 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 5.1.

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 5.1 FM/AM-equipped units. This should be attached

to the AM aerial inputs on the rear of Solo Movie 5.1 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 5.1 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 5.1 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 5.1. 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 5.1 is an audio device containing

microprocessors and other digital electronics.

It has been designed to very high standards of

electromagnetic compatibility.

If Solo Movie 5.1 causes interference to radio or

television reception (which can be determined by

switching Solo Movie 5.1 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 5.1 and its cabling.

< Relocate the receiver with respect to Solo

Movie 5.1.

< Connect the receiver and Solo Movie 5.1 to

different mains outlets.

If the problem persists, please contact your Arcam

dealer.
