FM Radio Tuner: C2N-TFM Introduction
Features and Functions
The Crestron® C2N-TFM is a Crestron-controlled FM Radio tuner (FM Tuner)
designed to work stand-alone or with the companion AM/Weather band tuner, the
C2N-TAMWX (AM/WX Tuner). The FM Tuner adds high-quality FM radio
programming to your whole-house audio distribution system.
The FM Tuner is designed to work in a Crestron control system (Cresnet® system).
You can use any Crestron multi-mode touchpanel to search through the stations and
control tuner functions. The built-in RDS/RBDS feature permits display of digital
data, such as program type, clock time, traffic announcements, etc., that may be
transmitted along with regular FM programming. (Refer to “RDS/RBDS Feature” on
page 2.) User-programmable presets let you quickly select your favorite station.
Audio output from the FM Tuner can be routed to a local amplifier or to a surround
sound decoder such as the C2N-DAP8 or C2N-DAP8RC. Output can also be routed
to a CNX-BIPAD8 for distribution to other rooms via CAT5 cabling. (Refer also to
the configuration diagram on page 12.)
