The Radio Fuse provides power to the Radio
and to the Power Antenna. With the Ignition
Switch in ACCY or RUN, voltage is applied
through the Radio Fuse and the
UEL wire to
the On-Off Switch in the Radio. The circuit is
grounded at 6200. With the On-Off Switch
closed, voltage is applied from the Radio Fuse
to the Radio Switch (Power Antenna), and the
solid state Radio Circuits to ground. Two wires
connect each speaker to the Radio.
The ETR Radio has two inputs that other
models do not have; Display Dim Signal and
ClocklMemory.
The ETR model is an AMIFM Radio that
changes stations electronically. The frequency
of pre-selected stations can be stored
in the
electronic memory. The ETR model also
provides a digital display of time or station
frequency. As in other models, the Light Switch
controls Panel Light dimming. In the
ETR
model, g is also controlled by the Radio
itself by means of the Dim Display Input
Signal.
The ETR model's clock memory and Radio
memory functions are powered at all times
through the CTSY Fuse or through the ARC
RADIO Fuse if equipped with the Remote
Control Head. If power to the ETR model is cut
off by disconnecting the Battery, for example,
the operator must reset the memory functions
when power is restored. The
Subpower Speaker
System consists of a
Subwoofer Amplifier Assembly and two Sub-
woofers. The Amplifier receives power from the
Radio PNK
(143) wire and is grounded at 6200.
The Amplifier Switch is located in the
Sub-
woofer Switch which, when put in the ON posi-
tion, causes the Subwoofer Amplifier to
operate. The eight audio inputs from the
I/P
Speakers and Rear Speakers are sent to the
Subwoofer Amplifier which then outputs an
audio signal to the Subwoofers.
Remote Radio System
The Remote Radio System consists of a mul-
tifunction Remote Control
Head and Data
Transmitter located in the steering wheel, a Slip
Ring and a rotating optical data link in the
steering
colurnn, and an ARC Radio equipped
with a serial data port for remote control.
Power for the electronics is supplied from the
RADIO Fuse, through the
YEL (43) wire,
through the slip ring to the Control Head. The
ground (the
BLKLT BLU (15 1) wire) and Pand
Larnps Power (the GRY (8) wire) are Likewise
supplied to the Control Head through the Slip
Ring assembly.
The Remote Control Head controls the Radio
by generating a unique data word for each oper-
ating function when the button controlling that
function is pressed. The data words are con-
verted from an electronic signal to an optical
signal by the Light Transmitter in the steering
column Cancel Cam. The light signal then
crosses the air gap to the Light Receptor
located in the
Turn Signal Switch where it is
reconverted to
an electronic signal. This signal
is then routed via wire to the Radio, which
responds to the Control signal.
