INSTALLATION APPLICATIONS
RNET-enabled System
When the ST2-XM2 Tuner is used with an RNET-
enabled device such as the CAV6.6 or CAM6.6,
and is connected to it through the Link In or Link
Out port, the tuner will be controlled by the
CAV6.6 or CAM6.6 through the UNO keypad.
Through RNET, tuner information such as Tuner 1
or 2, channel, preset names and XM is displayed
on UNO keypads. An additional RNET device can
be connected to an existing ST2 by using the
Link Out of the first unit into the Link In of the
second unit.
Before using the ST2-XM2 tuner with the
CAV6.6 or CAM6.6, you must assign source
numbers to Tuner 1 and 2 in the ST2 Setup
Menu AND complete the CAV6.6 and
CAM6.6's Source Setup procedure to identi-
fy the tuner as a "Peripheral" command
type device.
IR-controlled System
CA Series -
The ST2-XM2 Tuner can be controlled by infrared
commands received through either of the two IR
connections on the rear panel. There are two
unique IR code sets for Tuner 1 and Tuner 2,
which allow each to be controlled independently
from either IR connection. These codes can be
learned from the ST2-RC remote control into the
CAS-RC remote control.
The ST2-XM2 contains two individual tuners,
which makes it act as two sources in the CA sys-
tem. There are two source audio outputs and two
IR connections - one for each tuner in the ST2-
XM2. You will need at least one IR link cable
(Russound P/N 09-0508) for these connections.
If you are using an IR-controlled system from
another manufacturer, installation should be simi-
lar. The ST2-XM2 IR codes may be learned into
many other manufacturers' remote controls that
have learning capability for unified control over
the A-V equipment.
Note: Optional ST2-KP keypads can be used to
provide control for the ST2-XM2 Tuner and are
designed to be used with IR-controlled systems.
RS-232 Controlled System
The ST2-XM2 Tuner can be controlled using the
RNET protocol provided via the RS-232 port on
the rear panel. It can also be controlled by any
RS-232-enabled control system (e.g., Crestron,
AMX). Information on RS-232 operation is avail-
able to dealers in the Document Center on the
Russound web site, www.russound.com .
