RDS Deviation - Stereo Modulation
Sets the deviation of the RDS subcarrier.
Remote command:
[:SOURce]:STEReo:RDS[:DEViation]
RDS Data Set - Stereo Modulation
Selects the data set used in the RDS signal. Five data sets are provided on the instru-
ment. The values of the data sets can be defined via remote control (command
SOURce:STEReo:DIRect
)
Each of these data sets contains predefined values for:
●
PI (program identification, identifies the broadcast station )
●
PS or scrolling PS (program service name, represents the station identity name)
●
TP (traffic program, mark stations with regular traffic programs )
●
TA (traffic announcement, marks the start of a traffic program)
●
PTY (program type, predefined genres of broadcasting programs, e.g. news)
●
PTYN (program type name)
●
DI (decoder information)
●
MS (music /speech)
●
CT (clock time, used for synchronization)
The following values are empty:
●
RT (radio text, two text blocks with 64 symbols each)
●
AF (alternative frequencies, maximum of five lists with 25 frequencies each, ena-
bles the receiver to re-tune to a different frequency providing the same station
when the first signal becomes too weak)
●
TMC (traffic message channel)
●
EON (enhanced other networks, eight PS with five EON AF lists each, enables the
receiver to automatically tune into these stations if a traffic programs are broadcas-
ted)
The program identification and the program service name of the selected data set are
indicated in the menu.
Remote command:
RDS Program Service Name - Stereo Modulation
Indicates the RDS program service name.
Remote command:
RDS Program Identification - Stereo Modulation
Indicates the RDS program identification.
Remote command:
RDS Traffic Program State - Stereo Modulation
Activates the RDS traffic program (TP function). The receiver can recognize a fre-
quency as being capable of traffic information only if the TP function is active.
