    Basic Functions
    The NuVo Dual SIRIUS-Ready/AM/FM Tuner offers a wide variety of controls. Preset up to 5 banks of 20 presets using any of your favorite Sirius stations, and then group them according to specific genres. You can scan each of your preset stations, seek up and down the SIRIUS satellite band to find clear stations, or tune up and down the band to search for specific stations. A Channel menu is a SIRIUS function that offers quick access to the categories associated with SIRIUS. When selected, each category will expand to display the associated channels. You can also put a parental lock on SIRIUS channels with a 4-digit security code.

    The vivid two-line display indicates the station frequency, along with customized preset information, or RDS (Radio Data Service) information. Broadcasters can use the RDS format to send artist and song information with their broadcast. If a station is broadcasting RDS, the NuVo Dual SIRIUS-Ready/AM/FM Tuner will automatically scroll what is being received. You can even store a specific display for future reference, should you need to recall specific RDS information at a later time. Since two tuners can be active at once, different rooms connected to your NuVo system will be able to toggle the source button among the SIRIUS stations, even listening to different stations at once.

    SIRIUS Satellite Radio offers over 140 channels of music, news, sports, talk and entertainment, with all 67 music channels 100-percent commercial free. By subscribing to SIRIUS radio and connecting the NuVo Dual XM Satellite Tuner, you'll be able to experience Howard Stern, Martha Stewart, live games and races from the NFL, NASCAR and exclusive 100% commercial-free music channels like the Grateful Dead Channel and SIRIUSLY Sinatra in digital quality audio.

    The NuVo Dual SIRIUS-Ready/AM/FM Tuner is compatible with any audio system that is capable of repeating IR, as it is designed for IR control via infrared signals received by an audio distribution system. In the NuVo Simplese D or NuVo Essentia audio distribution system, sold separately, the IR emitter outputs act as a repeater to IR signals incident on the system keypads; no external IR emitters are required.

    If you have a NuVo Grand Concerto, sold separately, the NuVo Dual XM Satellite Tuner can provide direct, real-time communication across NuVoNet, the Concerto's complete system communication protocol. You'll have access to the NuVo Dual XM Satellite Tuner through your Concerto Display Keypads throughout your home as well as access to RDS streaming artist/selection information in real time.
