What to do if no sound is produced by Arcam Receiver?
First, ensure that you have selected the correct input on your Arcam Receiver. Then, check that your source equipment is on, operating normally, and in 'play' mode, if applicable. Finally, verify that the volume level is turned up to a reasonable level and that the receiver is not in mute mode.
Why does my Arcam Receiver respond erratically to the remote control?
If your Arcam Receiver responds erratically or not at all to the remote control, ensure that there are fresh batteries in the remote. Also, make sure that the front panel window is visible and that you are pointing the remote control towards it.
What to do if I can't connect to a wired network with my Arcam Receiver?
First, check that the Ethernet cable you are using is correctly connected between the Arcam Receiver and the network hardware. If the network is set up for fixed IP addressing, ensure that the receiver is also set to use fixed IP addressing. Conversely, if the network is set up for DHCP, make sure the receiver is set to use DHCP.
What to do if there is radio interference with my Arcam Receiver?
To address radio or television reception interference with your Arcam Receiver: First, determine the source of the interference by switching off each source component in turn, as well as any other electronic equipment. Then, try re-arranging the cabling from the source of the interference away from other cabling. Also ensure that the cabling used is high quality, specified for its purpose, and properly screened. If the problem persists, contact your dealer.
What to do if no picture is being produced by Arcam Receiver?
If no picture is being produced by your Arcam Receiver, first ensure that your viewing device is turned on and switched to display your receiver. You can test this by pressing the HOME button on the receiver or the remote. Also, verify that the source is on, operating normally, and in 'play' mode if appropriate.
What to do if the source switching changes randomly on Arcam Receiver?
If the source switching on your Arcam Receiver changes randomly or freezes on one source, first ensure there are no static or impulse interference problems caused by nearby power equipment switching, such as heating or air conditioning control. You can try switching the receiver off, waiting ten seconds, and then switching it back on to clear an operating problem. Also, make sure there is no direct sunlight shining on the infra-red detector behind the front panel display. Contact your installer if the problem returns or persists.
Why is the front panel display blank on my Arcam Receiver?
If the front panel display on your Arcam Receiver is blank, ensure that the display hasn’t been turned off. Press the DISPLAY button on the front panel or remote control.
Why does sound only come from some speakers with my Arcam Receiver?
If sound only comes from some of the speakers when using your Arcam Receiver, make sure you have an appropriate surround speaker to decoding format selected, and the correct format has been selected in the disc start menu. Verify that the disc you are playing is a multichannel recording (you may need to press the INFO key several times to see the appropriate information). Also, check that all the speakers in your system are connected properly.
What to do if I can't play files on a USB memory device with my Arcam Receiver?
If files on a USB memory device cannot be played on your Arcam Receiver, verify that the USB device is formatted in FAT16 or FAT32. Also, ensure that the USB device does not have multiple partitions and that the files are in a compatible format.
