Fast tuning service.
Traffic Message Channel
This service is used to send traffic information through a specific channel.
Enanched Other Netw ork ( EON)
This service transmits network information.
Linkage I nformat ion ( LI )
This information is transmitted together with the EON.
Lenguage I dent if icat ion Code ( LIC)
Language used by the radio station.
Extended Country Code ( ECC)
Specify oncemore the country name in order to be recognized inequivocably beside the
information already transmitted together with the PI.
Application Identifications ( AI )
Type of ODA signal to be transmitted together with the TMC.
Program Type Name ( PTN)
Specify the kind of PTY (example PTY=SPORT, PTN=BASEBALL max 8 characters).
Interconnection
The RDS data encoder must be connected between the stereo encoder and the transmitter.
The stereo encoder’s multiplex output should be connected to the MPX I N input of the RDS
encoder.
The MPX+ RDS OUT output should be connected to the input of the transmitter.
It is advisable to keep cable lengths to less than 3 metres.
The injection of the RDS signal has been factory-adjusted for an MPX input level of 0 dBm (and
a 19 KHz pilot level of -20 dB).
For higher input signal levels, turn the “RDS LEVEL” multi-turn potentiometer clockwise.
This will increase the RDS signal level.
Internat ional standards recommend an RDS level of - 3 1 .5 dB w ith respect to the
stereo and consequent ly - 1 1 .5 dB w ith respect to the pilot .
No phase adjustment is required as synchronizationis per formed automatically by
internal circuitry.
In the event of monophonic transmissions, the RDS data encoder should be connected
betweenthe last low frequency unit in the audio chain and the transmitter.
