For example, you could buy a 19” professional rack mount enclosure and turn your PCI MAX card into a stand-
alone no-tune stereo FM transmitter. If you need more power, why not put our 15W booster into this very same
enclosure? LCD control unit for the PCI MAX RDS lets you set power, frequency and RDS parameters via the
provided menu system, 3 keys and LCD display.

Fig.13 shows how to change pre-emphasis and connect the LED control unit. Power is adjusted via Windows
software and there is external power connector at the back of the card (12-13V DC, center positive). This
optional external power connector usually reduces the noise, coming from the PC, so this is a good idea, if
you’re suffering from the noise, generated by the PC. This can also be used in stand-alone situations outside of
the PC. Pre-emphasis is already preinstalled for you, any change is only required, if you’re going to sell your
unit to someone outside of your area (from US to the EU, for example).
