RDS300/RDS500/RDS1000 User Manual 3.10
Un defines the type of group used by the ODA application, U1, U2,…Un= 3A (specific case), 3B, 4B,
5A,5B, 6A, 6B, 7A, 7B, 8A, 8B, 9A, 9B, 10B, 11A, 11B, 12A, 12B, 13A, 13B.
The messages included in the 3A groups (block C) are defined by the commands
ODA.gv.MSG=<bbbb> and
ODA.gv.MSG2=<bbbb>
where gv=3A, 3B, 4B, 5A, 5B, 6A, 6B, 7A, 7B, 8A, 8B, 9A, 9B, 10B, 11A, 11B, 12A, 12B, 13A or 13B; and
bbbb=0000 to FFFF represents the message. A Timeout (maximum inactivity delay) can be defined by
the command ‘ODA.gv.TO=<t> ‘ where gv=3A, 3B, 4B, 5A, 5B, 6A, 6B, 7A, 7B, 8A, 8B, 9A, 9B, 10B,
11A, 11B, 12A, 12B, 13A or 13B; and t = 0(function disabled) to 255 in minutes.
The two transmission modes known as "BURST" and "SPINNING WHEEL" are respectively defined
by the commands:
ODA.gv.REPEAT=<n> , where n = repetition number,
ODA.gv.SPACE=<x> , where x = minimum number of groups between two gv type groups,
ODA.gv.NB=<n> , where n = number of windows defined in a one minute cycle,
ODA.gv.WINDOW=<t> , where t = in seconds the inactivity period in the cycle, and
ODA.gv.DELAY=<d>, where d defines (in seconds) the delay between the start of a minute
(second =0) and the start of the active period, and gv=3B, 4B, 5A, 5B, 6A, 6B, 7A, 7B, 8A, 8B, 9A, 9B,
10B, 11A, 11B,12A, 12B, 13A or 13B

PAGING APPLICATIONS*
The RDS Encoder encoder allows the extended use of Paging in RDS. To start with, it supports the
'standard' paging system i.e. the one which is specified in the RDS standard EN50067 dated 1992.
A second paging process called "EPP" (Enhanced Paging Protocol) is also available, compatible
with and improving on standard paging. If you have interest in using EPP, please contact us.
To configure a "paging" application
Insert 7A type groups in the group sequence using the command
DSN(d).GS=<g1,g2,g2,…gn>
where d = 1 to 6 specifies the assigned DSN, n<=252 and g1,g2,..gn = 0A, 0B, 1A,…to 15A. (The
values 4A, 14B and 15B are prohibited). You may also enter 7A groups in the ‘Group Sequence’ box
on the ‘configure RDS Encoder’ page of the RDS Encoders embedded website.
The number of 7A type groups present in the group sequence must guarantee the possibility of
broadcasting at least one to two 7A groups per interval for numeric paging and twenty 7A groups for
the 80 character text paging (an ‘interval’ represents approximately 66 groups).
Define the value of the GRPD code with the command
