Radio features
Solo is fitted with either a DAB/FM or an AM/FM
receiver, depending on the part of the world that
it is shipped to. To identify which is fitted in your
Solo, first locate the FM aerial connector located
on the far right of the rear panel of Solo. If there
is an AM connector to the right of this, then your
Solo is fitted with an AM/FM module; if you see
only a blanking plate to the right of the FM aerial
connector, you have a DAB/FM module.
Solo provides:
n
up to 30 station presets;
n
full RDS information on FM (where
transmitted); programme-associated data on
DAB;
FM signal-strength and DAB data-rate meters.

Searching for stations
Pressing the
button when the radio is
MODE
selected as the music source toggles between
the two tuning modes of Solo – 'Preset' or
'Tune'. The selected mode is shown briefly on
the display.
When in preset mode, pressing the
or
buttons on the remote control (
or
on the
front panel) selects the previous/next station
preset (if these are defined). Note that these
buttons have no effect, in preset mode, if
no presets are defined.
In tune mode, by contrast, pressing these
buttons changes the AM/FM tuning frequency
or selects the next DAB radio station from the
station list.
Programming station presets
If you wish, you can store your favourite radio station in one of the preset
radio stations supported by Solo. This allows quick access to the station
in the future, without the bother of having to re-tune. Solo provides for 30
preset radio stations, which are shared between DAB and FM, or AM and FM
(depending on your product configuration).
To store a preset, first tune to the radio station you wish to store. To store the
station into one of presets 1-9, press and hold the appropriately numbered
button on the remote control until the 'preset saved' message is displayed.
An alternative method, which allows access to the higher-number presets, is
pressing the
button to enter the Solo configuration menu (described
MENU
fully on page 12), then navigating through the menu until 'Store Preset' is
displayed. Using the – and + buttons on the remote control (
front panel) select the preset number you wish to use for the station. If a
preset is in use already, then the name or transmission frequency of the
station held in the preset is shown on the bottom line of the display; empty
presets are indicated by 'Empty' being shown. When the preferred preset
number is shown, press
to store the preset. Note that saving a radio
OK
station into a location occupied already will cause the original preset station to
be overwritten by the new one.
Your presets are retained when Solo is disconnected from the power supply.

DAB
Tuning stations in under DAB is different from
conventional FM or AM tuning, in that you do
or
not need to know the transmission frequency
of the station – this is handled for you by Solo.

options (see page 12) until 'DAB Setup' is
displayed. There are two options under this
menu item – 'Scan' and 'Erase settings'.

be added automatically to the list of available
stations. Press
