INTRODUCTION

732 PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

What is the

Radio Data

System?

The term RDS (European) or RBDS (North American) denotes

data transmissions that accompany analog audio programming

on the VHF FM broadcast band. Packets of data are transmitted

on an FM subcarrier to carry program-related metadata, such as

song title and artist info, as well as housekeeping functions to

help listeners seek particular programming options, and to en-

able certain networking, timekeeping and public safety fea-

tures. Inovonics’ 732 is the latest generation in the company’s

long line of RDS/RBDS RadioData encoders.

732 Product

Features

Leading features of the Inovonics 732:

Compatible with virtually all playout systems (station

automation) for artist and title information; supports

RT+ song tagging.

Separate RDS and MPX+RDS outputs offer multiple

hookup options to cover all interconnection possibili-

ties with any FM processor, STL, exciter/transmitter,

etc.

The 732 is SNMP-compliant; an IP-based Webserver in-

terface controls all encoder functions and is accessible

with using any computer or mobile device from any

worldwide location.

The front-panel OLED display and jog wheel navigate

an intuitive multilevel menu for quick local setup.

A built-in scheduler can deliver static messages on

specific dates at specific times for program promotion.

An internal delay feature synchronizes text messaging

with audio programming that may be subjected to pro-

fanity or diversity delays.

Error and malfunction alarms guard against a ‘stuck’

playout system or repeater ‘hijacking.’ Alarms are

logged and can dispatch instant email or text alerts to

station personnel.
