NET 

This LED (yellow) indicates that the SIMPL program currently loaded in the control 
system has a network device defined at the same NET ID code as the ST-TUNE. The 
LED flashes when communication with the Cresnet system and the ST-TUNE is 
occurring.  

BAND INDICATORS AND DIGITAL DISPLAY 

The 

AM

FM

WX

 (Weather Radio), or 

TV

 indicators contain four LEDs (red) to 

display the active band of the ST-TUNE. The digital display shows the radio 
frequency or TV channel being received. 

RECEPTION INDICATORS 

These three LEDs (red) indicate the reception status of the ST-TUNE. The LED 
labeled 

SIG

 indicates the strength of the incoming FM signal, the steadier and 

brighter the LED the stronger the signal. The 

MONO

 indicator illuminates when the 

mono selector is activated while in the FM, WX or TV band and the 

SAP

 indicator 

illuminates when the SAP selector is activated while in the TV band (regardless of 
whether or not SAP information is being received). 

NOTE:

  The 

SIG

 LED provides the most accurate indication of the incoming FM 

signal after the ST-TUNE has reached optimum operating temperature 
(approximately 10 minutes). 

TUNING MODE INDICATORS

 

These three LEDs (red) indicate the tuning mode of the ST-TUNE. The LED labeled 

PRE

 indicates that the preset mode (the preset functions are determined by the 

control system program) is activated. The 

TUNE

 indicator illuminates when the 

manual tuning mode is activated and 

SRCH

 indicates that search tuning is activated.  

UP/DOWN CONTROL BUTTONS 

During the 

PRE

 mode, the up or down control buttons cause the Cresnet control 

system to perform a preset or pre-programmed function. If not programmed, these 
buttons have no function during this mode. Refer to “Programming with SIMPL 
Windows” on page 13 for further information. While in the 

TUNE

 mode, the up or 

down buttons increment and decrement the radio or TV frequency by one step during 
each press. If pressed and held, the ST-TUNE will rapidly tune up or down. If the 
selected band supports the search tuning function, pressing either button during the 

SRCH

 mode searches the radio or TV frequency range for the next strong incoming 

signal.  

NOTE:

  The SRCH mode performs most accurately after the ST-TUNE has reached 

optimum operating temperature (approximately 10 minutes) and is receiving an 
adequately strong signals. Refer to the Sense-High and Sense-Low entry of the 
“ST-TUNE and STI-TUNE Symbol Input Descriptions” table on page 18 for further 
information. 

SELECTION BUTTONS 

The selection buttons cycle the reception functions of the ST-TUNE. Repeatedly 
pressing the 

BAND

 button cycles through the AM, FM, WX, and TV bands. 

Pressing the 

MONO

 button toggles between the mono and stereo reception (for all 

modes except AM in ST-TUNE, for all modes except AM and TV in international 
version STI-TUNE) and the 

MODE

 button cycles through the preset, manual, or 

search tuning modes.
