BASIC RDS
In this tab you will find all the essential RDS parameters needed for the Basic RDS applications.
PI Code Calculator
The PI code is your station’s ‘digital address’. This is a hexadecimal code that is assigned by
an appropriate broadcasting authority in most countries, but in the United States the PI code is
numerically calculated from the station’s call sign. We have provided a calculator utility within
the Web Interface. An in-depth discussion of the mathematical calculation is given in RDS/RBDS
Standard.
To use the PI calculator for US ‘K’ and ‘W’ call signs, simply enter call letters into the CALL
box. The hexadecimal code will automatically be calculated into PI box. If the hexadecimal code
for a US station is known, you may enter it under PI, and then the callsign will be calculated
automatically into CALL box.
When PI calculator fails to calculate PI or CALL the corresponding box will be filled with ‘----’.
Program Type (PTY)
PTY Selection identifies the station’s programming format from a list. There are two lists, one
for the European RDS system and one for the American RBDS specification, hence, open the
appropriate drop-down list and select suitable PTY.
