HARDWARE & RDS CONFIGURATION

Once read, the SmartGen Micro configuration will be visible and ready for editing.

See "RDS Applications Supported" on page 17 or RDS/RBDS Standard for detailed explanation

of each parameter.

is primary for maintenance purposes and reads the hardware characteristics of the

SmartGen Micro device.

- The SmartGen Micro encoder must be properly configured for the desired operating mode:

sidechain or loop-through before it is installed in the signal path. (see "Selection of Operating

Modes" on page 19)

- To set RDS subcarrier phase shift of the RDS subcarrier. (see "Subcarrier Injection Level"

on page 24)

The PI code is your station's 'digital address'. It is a hexadecimal code that is assigned by

an appropriate broadcasting authority in most countries, but in the United States the PI code is

numerically calculated from the station's callsign. We have provided a calculator utility within

the SmartGen Basic Encoders Manager. An in-depth discussion of the mathematical calculation is

given in RDS/RBDS Standard.

To use the PI calculator for US 'K' and 'W' callsigns, simply enter call letters into the CALL

box. The hexadecimal code will automatically be calculated into PI box. If the hexadecimal code

for a US station is known, you may enter it under PI, and then the callsign will be calculated

automatically into CALL box.

When PI calculator fails to calculate PI or CALL the corresponding box will be filled with '----'.
