The input can be set to:
•
Line1 for the analog inputs (see sections 4.5 to 4.7)
•
Line2 for the AES (see sections 4.5 to 4.7)
•
MPX1 and MPX2 inputs (see sections 4.4 and 4.7)
•
Internal
generator
4.4.
Setting the MPX inputs
•
Set the drive before processing between -6 and +6 dB
•
Set the nominal level between -50 and +50 dBu
•
Set the input type:
o
"MO" for mono
o
"ST" for stereo
o
"ST+R+S" for RDS+SCA
o
"ST+R" for RDS
o
"RDS" for RDS
o
"RDS+SCA" for RDS+SCA
o
"SCA" for SCA
The corresponding filter will be applied.

MPX configuration
•
Set the audio type to:
o
STEREO
o
MONO
o
MONO_L
o
MONO_R
Selecting STEREO enables the internal 19 kHz; you will therefore want to select MONO for an MPX
input.
•
Set the total deviation between 0 and 150 kHz
•
Set the pilot deviation between 0 and 25.5 kHz
•
If internal RDS is needed, set the RDS encoder deviation between 0 and 25.5 kHz (recommended
deviation is 4 kHz)
•
Set the max excursion between 0 and 200 kHz
4.6.
Setting the analog or AES inputs
Use the LINE1 commands for the analog inputs.
Use the LINE2 commands for the AES inputs.
•
Set the drive before processing between -6 and +6 dB
•
Set the nominal level between -50 and +50 dBu
•
Set the pre-emphasis to 0, 50 or 75 µs depending on your country (50 µs in Europe, 75 µs in the
USA).
