INTRODUCTION
DESCRIPTION
Thank you for choosing the Russound ST2-XM
Smart Tuner. Whether you are adding radio to an
existing system, expanding a CAi Series system
or taking advantage of the CAV6.6’s robust
RNET™ communication link, the ST2-XM Tuner is
designed to meet your needs.
The ST2-XM Tuner is like having two radios in
one. The AM/FM tuner provides broadcast of
local AM/FM stations, and the XM tuner delivers
all the diversity and choices available to XM radio
subscribers. The two modules share one set of
controls and display on the front of the unit, but
each runs independently. This arrangement
allows two different broadcasts at the same time
in a multi-room audio distribution system.
XM satellite radio provides over 100 channels of
music, news sports, comedy, talk and entertainment. Its coast-to-coast coverage, digital quality
sound and many commercial-free music channels
make XM radio the choice for the discriminating
listener.
XM radio is a subscription-based service, and listeners can subscribe by visiting XM on the web
www.xmradio.com
or by calling XM’s Listener
Care at 800-852-9696.
In addition to the traditional AM/FM broadcast
tuner function and the XM satellite access, the
ST2-XM Tuner can store up to 72 favorites, or
memory presets
. These are stored in groups of
six called
banks
. There are six banks for each
tuner. Each preset and each bank can be given a
custom name of your choice.
The ST2-XM Tuner can be controlled from the
front panel or by the dedicated ST2-KP tuner keypad. It can also be controlled by the ST2-RC IR
remote aimed at the tuner’s front panel IR receiver. The ST2-RC IR codes can be learned into any
IR learning remote control for easy system inte-
gration. It can also be controlled by IR signals
received through the IR connections on the rear
panel from IR repeating system commonly used
in distributed audio systems.
If the ST2-XM Tuner is part of an RNET-enabled
system such as the CAV6.6-S2 system, the tuner
can be controlled through an RNET keypad such
as the UNO-S2.
The ST2 Tuner also has an RS-232 port to support fully bi-directional integration into wholehouse control systems such as Crestron
®
and
AMX
®
.

INSTALLATION APPLICATIONS
RNET-enabled System
When the ST2-XM Tuner is used with an RNETenabled device such as the CAV6.6 and is connected to it through the Link In or Link Out port,
the tuner will be controlled by the CAV6.6
through the UNO-S2 keypad. Through RNET,
tuner information such as Tuner 1 or 2, station
5
INTRODUCTION
frequency or channel, preset names and AM/FM
band or XM is displayed on UNO-S2 keypads. An
additional RNET device can be connected to an
existing ST2 by using the Link Out of the first
unit into the Link In of the second unit.
Before using the ST2-XM tuner with the
CAV6.6, you must assign source numbers
to Tuner 1 and 2 in the ST2 Setup Menu
AND
complete the CAV6.6’s Source Setup
procedure to identify the tuner as a
“Peripheral“ device and assign Source
Numbers. The CAV6.6 requires firmware
version 2.00.01 or higher to control each
tuner through RNET. The UNO-S2 keypad
requires firmware version 3.00.01 or
higher.
IR-controlled System
CAi Series -
The ST2-XM Tuner can be controlled by infrared
commands received through either of the two IR
connections on the rear panel. There are two
unique IR code sets for Tuner 1 and Tuner 2,
which allow each to be controlled independently
from either IR connection. These codes can be
learned from the ST2-RC remote control into the
CA-LRC1 remote control and/or the DSC and
DAN IR learning keypads. The ST2-XM contains
two individual tuners, which makes it act as two
sources in the CAi system. There are two source
audio outputs and two IR connections - one for
each tuner in the ST2-XM. You will need at least
one IR link cable (Russound P/N 09-0508) for
these connections (one is supplied with each CAi
system). If you are using an IR-controlled system
from another manufacturer, installation should be
similar. The ST2-XM IR codes may be learned
into many other manufacturers’ remote controls
that have learning capability for unified control
over the A/V equipment.
A-BUS® System -
The ST2-XM Tuner can be used in an A-BUS sys-
tem with an audio distribution hub such as the
A-H484 and IR-repeating keypads such as the
A-KP2. The connections on the rear panel are
designed to receive IR signals from a repeating
system commonly used in A-BUS distributed
audio systems.
For A-BUS applications, as with the CAi series
installation, the two tuners in the ST2-XM unit
must be set up as two sources, with two source
audio inputs and two IR connections. You will
need two IR link cables for these connections.
The two IR code sets can be learned from the
ST2-RC remote into the A-LRC1 remote control.
Note: Optional ST2-KP keypads can be used to
provide control for the ST2-XM Tuner and are
designed to be used with IR-controlled systems.
RS-232 Controlled System
The ST2-XM Tuner can be controlled using the
RNET protocol provided via the RS-232 port on
the rear panel. It can also be controlled by any
RS-232-enabled control system (e.g., Crestron,
AMX). Information on RS-232 operation is available to dealers on the Russound web site,
www.russound.com
.

ST2-XM SETUP AND CONNECTIONS
BASIC CONNECTIONS
Power
To power the tuner, connect the 12VDC external
power supply by inserting the power supply jack
into the power supply connection on the tuner’s
rear panel.
Audio Output
Connect one end of a dual RCA audio cable to
the Tuner 1 Audio Output connection. Keep proper channel identity. Attach the other end of the
RCA cables to the source input of the audio control system. Repeat the same procedure for the
Tuner 2 Audio Output.
IR Connections
The ST2-XM Tuner can be controlled by infrared
commands received through the two IR connections on the rear panel. The ST2-XM Tuner component contains two tuners, which must be set
up as two sources. There are two IR connections - one for each tuner in the ST2-XM. You will
need two IR link cables (Russound P/N 09-0508)
for these connections. There is a unique IR code
set each for Tuner 1 and Tuner 2, which allow
each to be controlled independently. These
codes can be learned from the ST2-RC remote
into learning-capable remotes and keypads.
If you are using an IR-controlled system from
another manufacturer, installation should be similar. The ST2-XM IR codes may be learned into
many other manufacturers’ remote controls that
have learning capability for unified control over
the A/V equipment.
RNET Connection
To link the ST2-XM to an RNET-compatible
device, use a CAT-5 passthrough patch cable
with similar wiring terminations at each end.
Connect one end of the cable to the RNET Link
In of the ST2 tuner, and connect the other end
of the patch cable to the RNET Link Out connection on the RNET-compatible device.
ST2-KP Keypad to ST2-XM Connection
(Non-RNET System)
The ST2-KP connects to the ST2-XM tuner with
CAT-5 cable, using an RJ-45 (T568A) jack on the
tuner connection end of the cable. Be sure to
use the keypad ports for the ST2-KP and NOT
the RNET link ports. The ST2-XM tuner supports
up to two ST2-KP keypads. An SA-ZX3 Keypad
Splitter can be used to add additional keypads.
Note: ST2-KP keypads are designed for use
with IR-controlled systems (non-RNET systems).
When the ST2-XM Tuner is a component of an
RNET system such as CAV6.6, the RNET-system
keypads are used.
Rack Mount Installation
The ST2-XM can be mounted in a standard component rack using the rack ears provided. Line
the rack ear’s two rows of screw holes with the
three screw holes on the side of the tuner. Use
the screws provided to secure the rack ears
onto the unit on both sides. The ST2-XM tuner
should not be installed above a high heat-producing component such as a power amplifier.

NOTE: The CAV6.6 firmware must be version 2.00.01 or higher and UNO-S2
firmware must be version 3.00.01 or higher to control the ST2-XM Tuner. Use
the System Info Menu of the CAV6.6 to check the firmware version. If the
firmware is not the proper revision as noted here, visit the Document Center
at www.russound.com
to obtain the latest version.
To Program the CAV6.6 to operate with the ST2-XM Tuner:
(refer to the CAV6.6 Instruction Manual for details)
1. Enter the Setup Menu by pressing the Setup button on the side of the UNO-S2 keypad.
2. SOURCE SETUP will appear. Enter the Source Setup Menu by pressing the Play button on the
UNO-S2 keypad.
3. BASIC SETUP will appear. Enter the Basic Setup Menu by pressing the Play button again.
4. SOURCE NUM will appear. Use + and - buttons to select the source number to which Tuner 1 (XM)
is connected. Press the Play button to enter your choice.
5. SOURCE NAME will appear. Use + and - buttons to select the name for the source (e.g., Tuner 1
or XM). Press the Play button to enter your choice.
6. COMMAND TYPE will appear. Select PERIPHERAL from the list. Press the Play button to enter this
choice.
7. SAVE CHANGES? appears. Select “Yes” and press the Play button to save changes.
8. SOURCE NUM appears again. Repeat steps 4 through 7 to configure the second tuner.
9. Press the Setup button three times to back out of the Installation Menu.
Source Configuration Note:
When the ST2-XM 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” command 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 diagrams.
