DATASET 1 CONFIGURATION
18.9 ALTERNATIVE FREQUENCIES (AF)
The alternative frequencies (AF) list or lists provide information on the various transmitters broadcasting the same
program in the same area or in adjacent reception areas. This structure proves particularly useful for car radios and
portable radios.
NB:
Overall, up to 500 alternative frequencies can be entered in each dataset.
The list of alternative frequencies (AF) can be transmitted via two procedures: Procedure A and Procedure B.
In both cases, the lists must only contain the frequencies of the closest transmitters (or frequencies in overlapping
coverage areas).
NB: The receivers can establish which Procedure (A or B) is used by the respective data organization function
(coupled frequencies or individual frequencies) through the identifiers available for this purpose.
The Falcon XT allows the user maximum freedom, when using either Procedure A or Procedure B,
regarding the creation of the list and, in particular, whether the frequency pairs are listed in descending
or ascending order, within Procedure B
How the receiver behaves may differ from one model to another. The examples given in these pages
are provided for illustrative purposes only and show the potential offered by the Falcon XT in AF
programming. Please see the Cenelec standard for an in-depth discussion of AF programming.
