ARI State - Stereo Modulation
Activates/deactivates the ARI signal generation. ARI signals can be generated simulta-
neously with MPX and RDS signals.
Remote command:
[:SOURce]:STEReo:ARI:STATe on page 409
ARI Deviation - Stereo Modulation
Sets the frequency deviation of the ARI subcarrier signal.
Remote command:
[:SOURce]:STEReo:ARI[:DEViation] on page 410
ARI Identification - Stereo Modulation
Selects the generated identifiers of the ARI signal.
"Off"
Only the 57 kHz subcarrier is generated (Senderkennung). It marks
the stations which broadcast traffic programs and enables the
receiver to recognize the frequency as being ARI-capable.
"DK"
The message identification (Durchsagekennung) is generated in addi-
tion (low-frequency 30% AM). It signalizes that a traffic message is
currently broadcasted.
"BK"
The area identification (Bereichskennung) is generated in addition
(60% AM). This code is used to identify the geographical region cov-
ered by the radio station. The specific code is selected below.
"DK+BK"
The area and message identification are generated in addition.
Remote command:
[:SOURce]:STEReo:ARI:TYPE on page 409
ARI BK - Stereo Modulation
Selects the specific area identification (BK) code of the ARI signal. The six letters (six
different frequencies) identify a specific region in each country.
Remote command:
[:SOURce]:STEReo:ARI:BK[:CODE] on page 408
RDS Settings
The RDS (Radio Data System) is configured in the RDS Settings section, RDS is a
communications protocol standard from the European Broadcasting Union for sending
digital information embedded in conventional FM radio broadcasts. The RDS system
standardises several types of transmitted information, including time, track/artist info
and station identification.
RDS State - Stereo Modulation
Activates/deactivates the RDS signal generation. RDS signals can be generated simul-
taneously with MPX and ARI signals.
Remote command:
[:SOURce]:STEReo:RDS:STATe on page 414
