RDS/RBDS Generator
Your Optimod includes a full-featured RDS/RBDS generator that supports dynamic
PS. We presume that you are already familiar with the basics of RDS and you wish to
implement RDS via your Optimod. See the
References on page 2-107 for more about
RBS and RBDS.
There are three ways to control RDS generation from the 8500S:
•
Use the System I/O [the default] to set up the RDS to generate static RDS.
•
Change the RDS data dynamically by using processing presets .
•
Change the RDS data dynamically by using terminal control .
You can use both User Presets and the RDS terminal control to change the RDS dy-
namically. For example, if you are running a mixed format where part of the broad-
cast day is devoted to news and part to jazz, you may want the RDS Program Type to
change when you recall a preset appropriate for the format that is currently on-air.
Using System I/O
RDS Setup via System I/O is available only from PC Remote software.
