1AC power socket
Once all connections have been made, plug the AC power cable into an appropriate mains socket. Your 550T is now ready for use.
2Control Bus
The Control Bus carries control information, in the form of demodulated remote control signals, between the tuner and other Cambridge Audio devices connected to it. The 550T will respond to appropriate commands, as well as generating specific amplifier On/Off commands according to the tuner’s Alarm and Sleep functions.
3IR
Allows modulated IR commands from
4Line Output
Connect to your amplifier using good quality RCA/phono cables.
5FM Aerial
Connect an aerial to the FM 75 ohm socket (a simple wire aerial is supplied only for temporary use). Extend the lead and move the aerial around until you get the best reception.
For continued use, we strongly recommend using a 75ohm outdoor FM aerial.
6AM Loop Aerial
Connect each end of the single length antenna to the antenna terminals. Place the antenna as far from the main system as possible to prevent unwanted noise and to obtain optimum reception.
If the AM loop aerial provided does not receive sufficient reception, it may be necessary to use an outdoor AM aerial.
