alarm bell icon ( ) will be displayed in the upper right corner of the LCD. If the SongBook100
is on when the alarm is set to wake, it will go into Standby and the display will show “Standby”.
Be sure the SongBook100 is set to a DAB or FM station that will be broadcasting during the
time you wish to wake. Or set to the Off or Auxiliary position to wake to a rapidly increasing
tone. The alarm beep volume cannot be adjusted. The station will play and then place the unit
into Standby if no action is taken within 1 hour.
3. When the alarm activates, the alarm bell icon will flash and the LCD will light up. During alarm
activation, press the alarm button to place the SongBook100 back in Standby and have the
alarm set for the next day.
NOTE: The alarm will only work when the SongBook100 is powered by its power supply and
the clock has been set. The alarm cannot operate when the SongBook100 is operating
from battery power alone. The same is true for the Sleep timer and Clock.
Menu Options:
IN DAB MODE: Press and hold the Menu button to customize what DAB stations are shown
on the display via Favorites (10 most-listened to stations placed first indicated by a heart icon),
Alphanumeric, Active (inactive stations placed last), or Prune (inactive stations removed); to
manually tune specific DAB frequencies; to set the DRC (make quiet passages louder) value (0:
off, 0.5, or 1: as transmitted); Clock; to perform a factory re-set and clear all stored settings; and
to view the software version.
AUTOSET CLOCK: Press “Clock” in the menu and find the Autoset Clock selection. When this
option is set “on”, the LCD will show “Updating Clock...” and for 60 seconds will attempt to set
the clock. If a clock signal is available within 60 seconds, the clock will set automatically. If a
front panel button is pressed while the clock is updating, the “updating clock” message will
disappear but the clock updating will continue.
If the clock is unable to set automatically in DAB mode, switch sources to FM and be sure RDS
is turned on. If a clock signal is available from a station broadcasting RDS, the clock will set
automatically within 60 seconds. If the clock signal is unavailable in either DAB or FM RDS
mode, or the time provided by the station is inaccurate, turn the Autoset Clock option off and
set the clock manually.
If the clock is set manually while the Autoset Clock feature is turned on, the Autoset function
will wait 60 minutes until it verifies the time signal again.
IN FM MODE: Press and hold the Menu button to set the clock manually, via RDS (“autoset”)
if a clock signal is present, and to set the alarm wake time.
DAB RECEPTION: The number of DAB stations you receive depends on your location and how
many stations are broadcasting in your area. For more on DAB, please visit the web sites listed
at the end of this owner’s manual. As with weak analog FM signals, weak DAB signals can have
a negative impact on sound quality. Adjust the SongBook100’s antenna or location to experiment
with reception.
