Freq,
of course, is the frequency that the radio is currently
tuned to.
RSSI
is the same measure of signal strength shown on
front-panel Menu Screen 2.
Multipath
and
SNR
are the same measurements displayed on
front-panel Menu Screen 3 and are detailed on Page 11.
Below that are the two
windows that display
data associated with the
FM or HD Radio pro-
gramming. Both win-
dows download and ac-
cumulate data concur-
rently, but must be
viewed independently.
FM Info
shows the
PI
code and decoded
Call
(
letters) of the station.
PS
is the 8-character display that appears
on the faceplate of all RDS-equipped radios.
RT
(RadioText) is a 64-character field that
can show title and artist, station contact
info, or even advertising.
Time
shows the
current clock time at the studio location if
this group is transmitted. Many broadcast-
ers elect not to.
HD Info
is the Program-Associated Data
(PAD) that accompanies HD Radio channels.
It includes
Name
, the station’s call letters;
Slogan
, the station’s ‘street’ name’; and cur-
rently-playing
Artist
and
Title
.
Select the reception mode by choosing a ‘button’ in the
Pro-
gram:
field.
FM
is the first choice, and HD Radio broadcasts
are available on buttons that are shown as active. HD but-
tons are grayed-out if that particular HD Radio channel is
— 18 —
not present. In the example above, the station is transmit-
ting
HD1
,
HD2
and
HD3
.
The receiver may be tuned with the Web interface by four
different means. 1) grab the ‘slider’ with your mouse and
drag it back and forth, 2) highlight the slider and then use
computer
>
and
<
cursor keys to change frequency, 3) click
the on-screen
>
and
<
buttons to increment tuning up or
down, or 4) clear and re-type a frequency directly into the
display window and then press keyboard
Enter
.
Preset Stations
is the area to program frequencies into
memory, for instant call-up by clicking on an entry or for
the self-sequencing StationRotation feature, explained be-
low.
With a station tuned-in, click
the
Save as Preset
bar. This
brings up a
Save Station
box for
typing-in an identifier, either
the call letters or a short ‘street
name,’ up to 8 characters. This
will replace the top
(Empty)
slot
under
Preset Stations
. Note
that the reception mode is saved as
well, permitting a station’s FM and
HD1 channels to be logged as individ-
ual presets. HD2 and up are treated
likewise; whatever is playing will be-
come a separate preset.
Presets are erased by clicking the big
X
at the right-hand end of the indi-
vidual entry.
StationRotation
The 638 SiteStreamer™ can mon-
itor all station presets by ‘round
robin’ sequencing. When the
StationRotation function is ena-
bled, the unit will tune to the
next station on the list, ‘listen’ to
that station for the interval programmed into the
Rotation
Time (Sec):
box, and then cycle to the next preset.
Station memories also retain the programmed parameters
for the Audio Loss and Low Signal alarms. As alarm set-
