18. Complete Station ID (optional).
The Station ID is an optional setting that you can provide to associate the 8382
with the station providing the program material (e.g., “Z-100”). The name can be
up to eight characters long. It is used to identify your 8382 to Orban’s 8382 PC
Remote application, and appears on the Main Screen when the 8382 is being
controlled by the PC Remote application.

You can program these to be activated via any rear-panel GPI input, or by
the 8382’s clock-based automation.
When both modulation reduction functions are active, the modulation
reduction is the sum of their settings.
The Modulation Reduction function is active as long as signal is applied
to its associated GPI input.

20. Set up handling of AES3 status bits (optional).
The default behavior of the 8382 is to ignore AES status bits because many pieces
of external equipment handle these incorrectly. However, the 8382 allows the
AES3 “channel mode” determine its operating mode (stereo or dual-mono). The
AES3 channel mode specification provides for “two-channel mode” (correspond-
ing to 8382 dual-mono mode) with bits 1-4 in byte 1 in the pattern “0001,” and
