Remote SCAN function.
The automatic tuning/memory search is carried out physically through terminals 01 or
COM+
,
COM1
(for controls with communications bus).
This search can be made in two ways, depending on the mode that we have selected on
the menu.
-A memory scan will advance through the stations recorded on the memories of the
tuner.
-A tuning scan will make an automatic search based on the current frequency in
upward direction.
In addition, if we connect the tuner to modules with communications bus and if
these permit this, we will be able to:
-Make a remote scan through the bus. The tuner will inform the control of the fre-
quency it is on.
-Ask which frequency the tuner is on.
5. Assignment of CHANNEL1/CHANNEL 2
Only when the option with communications bus is installed.
In systems with domotic controls the address of the channel the tuner occupies is asso-
ciated with it, so that when a control has the tuner channel selected, it can carry out remo-
te scan and receive information of the frequency of the station that is tuned in.
Press Menu/Clear.

TO SEARCH FOR STATIONS:
1. Automatic search for stations
The simplest procedure to search for stations in the area and memorise them is to use the
Automatic search method.
-Press MENU/CLEAR to access the menu
-Press UP or DOWN until AUTO appears on the display
Press OK to select this mode.
The tuner will start an automatic exploration of the whole FM band and will store them in
its memory in a sequential fashion up to a maximum of 25 memories.
2. Direct search. Memorise stations (manual)
Direct Search
Press MENU/CLEAR to access the SEARCH function of the menu.
Press

automatically search for the next or previous station.
MEMORISE STATIONS
After selecting the desired station to memorise it press
OK
.
The display will show:
SAVE
and then the number of the memory MXX. With the
UP
or
DOWN
key select the memory number where you wish to save the station. If the display
indicates
MXX LIBR
, the memory is free.
If it indicates
MXX
the memory is occupied.
Press
OK
to save. The display will flash several times to indicate that the station has been
memorised and it will indicate the frequency again.
The tuner has
25
memories.
3. Search for memorised stations
This model enables you to explore the stations that have been previously memorised by
any of the previous methods.
With the keypad select the
SEARCH
–
MEMORY mode.
Press

Several types of installations can be carried out with the PCD3666 tuner:
1- Connection as centralised sound source:
In this first case, the PCD3666 tuner sup-
plies 1 music channel to the whole system. The simplest installation would be in combi-
nation with a power supply source P3262 (diagram 1). Another possibility would consist
in using a main unit P3221 or P3261 with 1 musical channel, which an outside sound sour-
ce would be connected to (compact-disc, radiocassette, etc.); in this case the system will
have 2 channels.
2- Connection as local sound source:
This type of connection provides an exclusive
tuner for one single zone (see diagram 2), thus having an additional background music
channel to those distributed throughout the whole home.
ANTENNA: If there is no 75-ohm antenna signal available in the installation, a 75 cm long
cable can be used as antenna.
In any case, both the tuner and the antenna must be located as far away as possible from
the electricity supply mains cables as well as from any source of electromagnetic interfe-
rences (household appliances, motors, fluorescent lights, halide lights, etc.)
Do not place this product in damp atmospheres, close to heat sources or in potentially
explosive atmospheres.
The connection to the electricity supply mains, installation, cable section and wire laying
will be carried out according to the specific directives and standards of each country.
Sonelco declines any responsibility that might be derived from the improper use of
the product or installation that does not comply with the recommendations.
These characteristics are only given as reference. The manufacturer reserves the right to introduce any amendments without prior notice in order to improve the product.
