Source Configuration Note:

When the ST2-XM2 Tuner is used with the CAV6.6 or other RNET controller, it is configured as an RNET command type “Peripheral” and is connected via the RNET bus. This makes the tuner behave as a fully integrated device with UNO-S2 keypad support. Each tuner must be set up with a unique source number (1 - 6) or unassigned. An unassigned tuner is not controlled by the RNET bus.

Key Function Note:

When using the tuner with the CAV6.6-S2 system, do not reassign keypad and remote buttons for tuner control in the CAV6.6 Key Configuration Menu. When the tuner is assigned the “Peripheral” com- mand type in the CAV6.6 Setup Menu, key assignments and functions are automatically assigned and will operate as shown in the preceding UNO-S2 keypad and UNO-LRC1 remote control diagrams.
