Configuring Dab; Auto Linking Dab-Fm; Auto Ensemble Linking; Dynamic Audio Adaption - Opel MOKKA Infotainment Manual

General information
■ With DAB, several radio
programmes (services) can be
broadcasted on a single frequency
(ensemble).
■ Besides high-quality digital audio
services, DAB is also able to
transmit programme-associated
data and a multitude of other data
services including travel and traffic
information.
■ As long as a given DAB receiver
can pick up the signal sent out by a
broadcasting station (even if the
signal is very weak), sound
reproduction is ensured.
■ There is no fading (weakening of
the sound that is typical of AM or
FM reception). The DAB signal is
reproduced at a constant volume.
■ If the DAB signal is too weak to be
picked up by the receiver, reception
is interrupted completely. This
incident can be avoided by
activating Auto ensemble linking
and/or Auto linking DAB-FM in the
DAB settings menu.
■ Interference caused by stations
that are on nearby frequencies (a
phenomenon that is typical of AM
and FM reception) does not occur
with DAB.
■ If the DAB signal is reflected by
natural obstacles or buildings, the
reception quality of DAB is
improved, whereas AM or FM
reception is considerably impaired
in such cases.
■ When DAB reception is enabled,
the FM tuner of the Infotainment
system remains active in the
background and continually
searches for the best receivable FM
stations. If TP 3 97 is activated,
traffic announcements of the FM
station which is currently best
receivable are issued. Deactivate
TP, if DAB reception should not be
interrupted by FM traffic
announcements.

The following options are available in
the configuration menu:

Auto ensemble linking

With this function activated, the
device switches over to the same
service (programme) on another DAB
ensemble (frequency) when the DAB
signal is too weak to be picked up by
the receiver.
Set the function to On or Off.

Auto linking DAB-FM

With this function activated, the
device switches over to a
corresponding FM station of the
active DAB service when the DAB
signal is too weak to be picked up by
the receiver.
Set the function to On or Off.

Dynamic audio adaption

With this function activated, the
dynamic range of the DAB signal is
reduced. That means the level of the
loud sounds is reduced and the level
of the quiet sounds is increased.
Therefore, the volume of the
Infotainment system can be raised to
99
