Troubleshooting
Tune to a DAB station preset
In DAB mode:
1.
Press and release the Preset button. ‘Preset Recall’ is displayed together with the
number of the current preset location.
2.
Use the rotary tuning wheel to move to the Preset location and station that you would
like to listen to (1-10).
3.
Press and release the Select button. The Boombox will instantly tune to that station
and begin to play.
Note:
If no DAB station has been stored under the preset button, ‘Preset Empty’ will be
displayed, then the Boombox will revert to the previously selected radio station after a
few seconds.
DAB display information
When listening to a DAB station you can change the information that will appear on the
display. There are several different types of information that are sent by the broadcaster.
• Dynamic Label Segment (DLS)
This is scrolling text information supplied by the broadcaster. Information could be the
name of an artist or music title, DJ’s name, contact details for the radio station etc.
• Program Type (PTY)
Such as ‘Rock’, ‘Pop‘, Talk’ or ‘News’
• Multiplex Name
Displays the broadcasting area and collection of radio stations on this frequency e.g.:
BBC National DAB, Digital 1 Network.
• Time and date
Supplied by the broadcaster.
• Channel and Frequency
e.g.: 12B 225.648 MHz
• Signal error
This is displayed as a number between 0-99. It would not be possible to satisfactorily
listen to a radio station with a signal error rate of 30 or above. Try adjusting the aerial
or relocating your Boombox to improve reception.
• Signal information
The data rate at which the signal is being transmitted.
• Signal Strength
A row of solid rectangles will be displayed to indicate the actual signal strength that
you are receiving. An empty within the row of solid rectangles will indicate the
minimum signal strength for acceptable listening. The stronger the signal, the further
to the right the row of solid rectangles will be.
1.
Repeatedly press and release the Menu/Info button to cycle through the different
information options.
Dynamic range control (DRC)
In DAB mode:
The dynamic range for each radio programme is set by the broadcaster for each radio
station and may be different for the types of programme broadcast, such as pop or
classical music or a chat show. The dynamic range control signal is transmitted in parallel
with the audio signal for each programme and with your radio you can use this control
signal to expand or compress the dynamic range (the difference between the loudest and
quietest sounds) of the reproduced audio signal. Changing the dynamic range can affect
the ‘loudness’ and/or ‘quality of sound’ of the programme that you hear so that it will be
more suited to your listening conditions and your own personal listening requirements.
e.g. in a noisy environment, where quiet sounds might be swamped, setting the
compression to maximum will ‘boost’ the quiet sounds, whilst keeping the loudest sounds
at their original level.
