T2SIR Quick Setup Guide for Use With NuVoNet
The T2SIR Dual Tuner is the perfect broadcast music solution for whole-home audio. The internal NuVoNet capability of the T2SIR
allows it to easily communicate in real time with the NuVo Grand Concerto and Essentia E6G Control Pads. The following is a step-
by-step guide for setting up and installing the T2SIR for use with the Grand Concerto and Essentia NuVoNet Suites.
Step 1: Upon unpacking your T2SIR Tuner, establish which audio inputs, 1-6, the T2’s A and B audio outputs will represent. Plug
the T2 into an AC power source.
Step 2: Attach the audio outputs A and B of the Tuner to the appropriate numbered inputs on the Grand Concerto or Essentia
System.
Step 3: Connect the CAT5 from the NuVoNet output on the rear panel of the Tuner to one of the Device inputs on the Grand Concerto
EZ Port or the Essentia Allport. This will enable communication to the System’s Control Pads. Note that a single CAT5 connection
provides information from both Tuners A and B. A final CAT5 Connection should then be made to the NuVoNet CAT5 input on the
back panel of the Grand Concerto or Essenita main amplifier for the NuVoNet RJ45 on the Grand Concerto EZ Port or the Essentia
Allport. This completes the necessary connection for the NuVoNet communication.

Step 4: Complete the antenna connections on the back panel of the Tuner using standard RG6 coaxial cable. Quad shielded cable is
recommended. When the antennas are connected, the Tuner will begin receiving a signal for both Tuners A and B.
Step 5: When the Tuner is plugged into an AC power source, the front panel display will move through a boot procedure. When this
procedure is completed, a message, Uninitialized State Detected will appear.
Step 6: Following the prompt from the display, touch the OK button on the Tuner’s front panel control. This will display a regional
tuning selection: USA and Canada, Western Europe, Australia, and New Zealand. Make the appropriate selection to match the
Tuner s geographic location.
Step 7: Touching OK on the front panel controls will prompt a second screen on the display. This will read, Set Tuner A Mode,
Standalone, Source 1, Source 2, Source 3, Source 4, Source 5, and Source 6. The top selection, Standalone, will be highlighted. This
choice is used for any purpose that is not NuVoNet communication. Using the down arrow on the far right of the front panel
controls, scroll to the desired source input number and touch OK to select. The display will automatically go to Tuner B setup.
Repeat the above steps for setting Tuner B. If NuVoNet is not connected or all available sources have been assigned, than the
source selections will be grayed out.
Step 8: When the desired source number is selected, the display will return to the first screen. Both outputs A and B will display
the lowest FM band frequency by default. At this point, full tuning capability can be done from the Tuner’s front panel or an
addressed NuVo Control Pad.
Step 9: When both Tuner outputs are set, make sure the NuVoNet CAT5 connection between the Tuner s back panel and the
system EZ Port is completed.
The T2SIR Tuner is now ready for NuVoNet communication with either the Grand Concerto or Essentia E6G distributed audio
systems.
Please see the complete installation guide for understanding the full use of your T2SIR Tuner.

AM/FM Antenna Installation (Fig. 3)
The T2SIR is shipped with the NV-T2FAA active AM/FM
antenna. The antenna is designed to work actively with the
Tuner using standard 75-ohm coaxial cable. Quad-shielded
cable is recommended for this purpose. The advantage of the
active antenna technology is the remote location capability, up
to 200 feet from the T2SIR location, without the need for an
external power supply. The termination at the antenna and
Tuner is a standard F style connector. No software
application or configuration is necessary beyond making the
cable connection at each end.
The NuVo active
antenna can be located up
to 200 feet from the T2SIR
Tuner.

Note, for best results, the T2FAA antenna should be located as
high as possible, either in an attic or outside. If you choose to
use a third party antenna, other than the T2FAA, you must use
the forced off setting from the menu to allow the signal to pass
through to the T2SIR, (see section III. T2SIR Front Panel Menu,
Antenna Power, pg. 14).
Connecting for NuVoNet Use (Fig. 4)
Once audio outputs A and B are set for NuVoNet, the T2SIR is
ready to communicate in real time with the Grand Concerto or
Essentia E6G audio distribution systems. To complete the
connection, all that is necessary is a single CAT5 cable from the
NuVoNet output on the T2SIR’s back panel to one of the Device
inputs on either the Grand Concerto EZ Port or the Essentia E6G
Allport. Since the outputs of the Tuner must be set as a specific
source number input for NuVoNet communication, the number
of the Device connection used is irrelevant to the system’s
operation. Once the connection is complete, the Tuner is ready
to fully communicate with NuVoNet.

Once the audio outputs are set at Standalone, the T2SIR offers
three methods for IR control. One is to take the IR output of
your control device using a mono 3.5mm patch cable plugged
into the Direct IR input on the back panel of the T2SIR. Tuners A
and B feature discrete commands, allowing both Tuners to be
controlled independently from one input. The second method
for IR control is to attach an IR emitter over the IR receiver on
the front panel, and the third method is to aim the remote
control at the IR receiver located on the front panel.

Each Tuner, A and B, has a SIRIUS-Ready connector on its back
panel. This connector is ready to receive the Tuner signal and
related metadata from a SIRIUS receiver. Any SIRIUS receiver
equipped with the SIRIUS connector will communicate with the
T2SIR’s input. The cable necessary for this connection is
typically supplied with the SIRIUS receiver. Once the 8-pin
connection is made from the SIRIUS receiver to the T2SIR,
SIRIUS will be recognized as a radio band for either Tuner A or

Installing the SIRIUS Antenna (Fig. 8)
There are several versions of SIRIUS antennas on the market.
The antennas best suited for use with the T2SIR are designed
for outside placement, such as the NV-SCH-ANT also available
from Directed Electronics as model 14245. An antenna with an
F connector designed for use with coaxial cable is

recommended. Often it is necessary for the antenna to have an
unimpeded view of the sky to receive a signal. Figure 8 shows
this type of application with the NV-SCH-ANT antenna with its
included signal splitter for use with two SIRIUS receivers. The
T2SIR is shipped with two NV-T2FSD AM/FM/Satellite
Diplexers. This allows the AM/FM and SIRIUS signals to be
combined and brought to the back of the Tuner. There, the
second NV-T2FSD can be used to split the signal a second time.
This allows the AM/FM signal to come into the antenna input
on the T2SIR back panel and the SIRIUS signal is then routed to
the SIRIUS receiver or receivers, depending on the application.
It is not necessary to place the AM/FM and SIRIUS antennas in
the same location.

for RG58 cable. This model is not recommended for use with the
NV-T2SIR Tuner.

Antenna Power: The choices here are
Automatic, Forced ON and Forced OFF.
Automatic is the default and allows the T2SIR
to recognize a present SIRIUS receiver. In
Automatic the T2SIR lets the attached SIRIUS
receiver supply the 5 volts to both the SIRIUS
and T2FAA antennas. In instances where you
intend on using a third party FM antenna, the
Forced OFF choice is necessary to block DC
voltage needed for AM reception. Forced ON
supplies DC voltage for AM reception in the
presence of a SIRIUS receiver which is not
sharing an antenna cable with the NV-T2FAA
antenna.

T2FAM, and NV-T2DAB. To work with the NV-T2SIR, make that
model choice from the uner Mode menu.
V. Using the NuVo Tuner Configurator
Software
The Configurator Software is tabbed, wizard style software that
easily moves you through the T2SIR setup and implementation
as a NuVoNet source or as a standalone source controllable by
IR or Serially. Within the Configurator you can setup the source
address and presets for an installation and download the
information to the T2SIR’s flash memory prior to its
installation. Its non-volatile memory will retain the
configuration indefinitely while the Tuner is unplugged.
Fig. 35
1.0 Start (Fig. 34)
The start tab allows you to load an existing configuration,
create a new one, or retrieve and edit a configuration from the
Tuner. When the computer is connected to the Tuner via its
RS232 port, you can click on Retrieve Configuration from
Tuner and make any necessary edits. When the edited version
is downloaded to the Tuner, the previous configuration will be
overwritten.
To start a new configuration or open an existing configuration,
click on the Load Existing or Create New Configuration
button. The File Name field allows you to give a new
configuration a new name.

2.3 Brightness (Fig. 38): This sets the intensity of the display
for the Tuner. The factory default is the maximum level, 8.
Fig. 38
2.2 Regional Setup (Fig. 37): Depending on your geographic
location, the Tuner needs to be set for the proper tuning
standard. The choices are USA & Canada, Western Europe,
Australia, and New Zealand. Countries outside these
geographic locations need the advanced custom setting (see
section V. Advanced Settings: 4.1 Custom Regional Setup,
pg.21). Note that the NV-T2SIR is specifically designed for USA
and Canada use. AM/FM reception will work worldwide, but
SIRIUS is only available in North America.
2.4 Auto-On (Fig. 39): In the event of loss of power, or if the
Tuner is unplugged, the Tuners can be set with this check box
to automatically turn on when power is restored. Note that this
feature is only necessary for non-NuVoNet use, since NuVoNet
causes the Tuners to turn on when a zone within the NuVo
System is turned on. The Tuners will turn off when all NuVo
System zones are turned off.

3.0 Presets
The Tuner Configurator software is an important setup tool for
easily setting Tuner presets and loading them on the NV-T2SIR
non-volitile memory prior to the installation. NuVoNet will
automatically read the presets and make them available on the
Control Pads.
3.1 Preset Information (Fig. 41): This section provides a
display name, band and tuning frequency or channel selection
for each preset. As the Preset information fields are
populated, the same information will automatically fill the
highlighted fields to the left. Each of the 5 available banks of
presets will hold 20 separate AM, FM or SIRIUS channel
selections. The default setting will show two available banks of
20 with the default names, My Presets 1 and My Presets 2 .
2.5 Disable Bands (Fig. 40): This series of check boxes allow
you to remove unwanted Tuner bands from the NV-T2SIR
functions. The SIRIUS functions will be grayed out if you do not
plug in an active SIRIUS Tuner, but checking the Disable
SIRIUS boxes will eliminate any SIRIUS information from
displaying on the Control Pads. This is a good option when you
have no intention of including SIRIUS radio.
When the AM or FM bands are selected and a station name is
typed into the Name field, the Frequency dialer will
become active. As you scroll up and down the frequency list,
the highlighted Frequency column to the left will
automatically populate. When SIRIUS is selected, a drop down
menu will appear with all the available SIRIUS channels.
Making the selection is simply done by scrolling to the desired
channel and left clicking on it. While your computer is
connected to the NV-T2SIR via the serial RS232 port, you can
click on the Get SIRIUS Channel List from the Tuner button
and repopulate the drop down menu with the most current
channel list.
Reset Config: This button will reset all of the configuration
information to the original factory default settings.

Advanced Settings
The Tuner software contains several specialized settings for
more advanced setup. Clicking on view and selecting
Advanced will expand the tabs as discussed in the next
section to allow access to this functionality.
4.0 Advanced Config (Fig. 45)
The Tuner software allows for more advanced settings that, if
necessary, allow you to tweak the Tuner’s operation. The
process for beginning a new configuration or editing an
existing one does not change from the standard mode.

4.2 Tuning Parameters (Fig. 47): This section determines how
the NV-T2SIR tunes up and down. Seek/Scan Levels for each
band, FM, AM, and Weatherband sets the signal strength
parameter for searching stations. Level 0 (Low), causes the
Tuner to stop at any frequency with a very low signal, and
Level 4 (High), stops only when a very strong signal is
detected. The factory default is Level 2 (Medium), which
searches for a moderate signal. This setting changes the
necessary signal threshold, which is the minimum signal level
required for the Tuner to recognize it and lock on to the
frequency.
Fig. 47
4.1 Custom Regional Setup (Fig. 46): Some countries operate at
a tuning standard outside the four preset regions. The Custom
setting allows specific parameters. One determining factor for
tuning is the Pre-emphasis . The two choices for this are
50 S (microseconds) and 75 S. The custom setting also allows
for specific setting of the minimum and maximum tuning
capability and the individual tuning steps for FM and AM.

5.0 Update System
5.1 Help About (Fig. 40): When you are ready to download
your configuration to the T2SIR, connect your computer to the
DB9, RS232 port on the back panel of the Tuner. Note that you
may need a USB to RS232 cable if your computer is not
equipped with a serial port. You can click on Help and then
About to confirm communication between the computer and
the Tuner. The initial software screen will appear. If the current
Tuner firmware information is listed in the bottom right-hand
corner of the screen, you have good communication. If it does
not appear, check your cable connections, and make sure the
Tuner is powered on. Often, lack of communication is fixed by
closing and reopening the Configurator.
