1.1 Purpose This guide covers RT25-2-based RDS encoders (both module and boxed versions). It provides the information needed to install the equipment and set basic RDS services in order to get your station RDS enabled quickly in a few steps. Please read this entire guide and familiarize yourself with the controls bef ...

2.1 Front Panel 2.1.1 Status LCD The LCD area is divided into two lines. The first line shows key RDS services which require quick access. These services are PS (incl. dynamic), PI, TP and TA. The second line shows the most important status values and RDS services in a loop. Depending on the configuration, some v ...

Two LED diodes are used to indicate operating status of the RDS encoder: Operation LED Pilot LED Status Start-up off on Initialization on off Firmware update in progress Operation · · · · · Normal operation - - - - - An error occurred (encoder’s hw failure) on Receiving data on some port on External pilo ...

3.1 Connecting the RDS Encoder Basic rules applying for any RDS encoder’s connection:  The RDS signal must be fed into modulation input (added to MPX signal if stereo encoder is used).  If stereo encoder is used, one of its outputs (MPX or pilot tone) must be fed into the RDS encoder input to meet the sy ...

Use this mode only if no of the previous connection is possible. FM Transmitter with integrated stereo encoder RDS Encoder Pilot/MPX output Output Input RDS/SCA/MPX input FM transmitter with integrated stereo encoder. In case of mono transmi ...

The RDS encoder can be supplied from any power supply, which delivers a stabilized 12 V voltage and a current of at least 500 mA and no more than 2 A. Commonly available switching wall adapters are usually suitable for that purpose. The RDS encoder has polarity protection. The central conductor of the power supply conn ...

4.1 Establishing a First Communication with the RDS Encoder The RDS encoder should be configured via local port (port 1) before first use. Alternatively, the configuration can be made using the embedded website. The encoder comes initialized from the factory. The Ethernet is pre-configured in order to obtain IP ...

4.2.1 Finding out actual RDS encoder’s IP address Knowing of the RDS encoder’s IP address is necessary for its remote configuration. By default, in typical network, the RDS encoder obtains IP address automatically via DHCP function. Actual IP address can be determined from several source ...
