3.3 Auto-update
Auto-update works with data sent over DAB, FM. The clock is only updated
when in a corresponding mode, so it is best to select a mode you use regularly.
3.4 Manual set
If you set No update, the wizard now prompts you to set the time and date
manually. The date is displayed as DD-MM-YYYY and MM-DD-YYYY.
4 Operation
This section describes the operating functions available for each of the four
audio sources.
4.1 DAB radio mode (Optional)
DAB radio mode receives DAB/DAB+ digital radio and displays information
about the station and programme /track as broadcast.
To enter DAB mode, either press Mode until the display shows DAB Radio.
4.1.1 Scanning for stations
The first time you use CR2, or if the station list is empty, the radio
automatically performs a full scan to see what stations are available. You may
also need to start a scan manually to update the list of stations for one of the
following reasons:
New stations may become available from time to time.
If reception was not good for the original scan (for example the antenna was
not up), this may result in an empty or incomplete list of available stations.
If you have poor reception of some stations causing the audio to break up, you
may wish to list only stations with good signal strength.
To do a full scan Select Menu > Full scan.
Once a scan is complete, the radio returns to playing the previously-selected
station or first station on the station list.
To remove stations that are listed but unavailable Select Menu > Prune invalid.
4.1.2 Manual tune
As well as the normal method of scanning, you can also manually tune to a
particular channel / frequency. This can be useful for adjusting your antenna to
achieve the best possible reception and scanning a particular channel to
update the station list.
To manually tune
Press Menu > Manual tune then use select control button to display a
particular channel/frequency, press Select to tune to that channel/frequency.
The display shows a live indication of the received signal strength on the
selected frequency.
Adjustments to your antenna will be manifested in the received signal strength
displayed.
Note: The division in the signal strength bar indicates the audio quality threshold
– if the signal strength, as indicated by the solid rectangles, falls below this
threshold the audio quality will deteriorate.
When a channel/frequency is selected CR2 also scans for any DAB stations on the
selected frequency and updates the station list with any new stations found. To
listen to any stations found return to the Now playing screen and select the
required station from the station list as normal.
