which is integrated in the ST16 and a smart-card for
which a regular fee has to be paid.
The DMX card supplied with the set enables free
listening to DMX service during 10 days, starting at the
first time you select DMX with the card inserted.
Note:
The same card will be used if the necessary
fee is paid. Therefore, do not throw the supplied card
away when the 10 day listening period has expired.
• Insert the card with the side which contains the
chip pointing to the left in the ST16.
• Press
DMX
to select the DMX reception mode.

FAV
ourite memory, you can store in sequence
your own favourite stations out of the FREE and
DMX stations. Up to 100 stations can be placed in
the FAVourite memory.

radio stations pre-programmed (available stations at
the time of production). It is also possible to
program new stations easily.
Automatic search of new stations
To be able to programme new ADR stations of
which the reception frequency is not known to you,
the ST16 is provided with an automatic tuning
system (LEARN).
This system automatically programmes all receivable
digital radio stations of the ASTRA system in the
right categories FREE or DMX.
This procedure can take approximately 30
minutes.
Your own favourite FAV table remains
unchanged.
The LEARN system stores the FREE stations in
ascending order in the empty memory positions and
the DMX stations according to the transmitted DMX
number.
A repeated LEARN procedure does not clear any
station that at that moment can not be received.
However, it stores new stations if the unit receives any.
• Press the
LEARN
key for at least 2 seconds.
– The automatic search is started and the display
shows
LEARN
>>.
– As soon as a station is found, the number of that
station will be shortly indicated on the left of the
display.
– The DMX LED lights up if a DMX station is found.
– After the search the set will tune to station nr. 1 in
the FREE memory bank.
• The
LEARN
function can be interrupted at any
moment by switching the unit off and on again.
The already existing memory of DMX and FREE
stations will then remain unchanged.
