your station.
After this step, you can always select a different processing preset, pro-
gram the 8500S to automatically change presets on a time/date schedule,
use a GPI input to trigger preset changes, modify presets to customize
your sound, and store these presets as User Presets.
Preset names are just suggestions. Feel free to audition different presets
and to choose the one whose sound you prefer. This preset may have a
very different name than the name of your format. This is OK.
You can easily modify a preset later with the 8500S's one-knob L
feature. Refer to Section 3.

Congratulations! You are now on the air with your initial sound. Feel free to
read the material in Section 3 of this manual, which describes the various presets
and how you can customize them to achieve your desired signature sound.
14. Complete Station ID (optional).
The Station ID is an optional setting that you can provide to associate the 8500S
with the station providing the program material (e.g., "Z-100"). The name can be
up to eight characters long. It is used to identify your 8500S to Orban's PC Re-
mote application, and appears on the Main Screen when the 8500S is being con-
trolled by the PC Remote application.
A) Navigate to Setup > Next > T
B) Use the knob to set the each character in the ID. Use the Next and Prev but-
tons to control the cursor position.
C) When finished entering your name, press the SAVE button. If you escape to
the main screen from Setup, you can now see the station name toggle on the
main screen.
The following steps are not included in Quick Setup, but you may need to perform
them as part of your initial setup of the 8500S.
1. Activate the 8500S's ITU-R BS412-9 multiplex power controller (op-
tional).
[Skip this step if ITU-R BS412 is not enforced in your country. At the time of this
writing, it is only enforced in certain European countries. If your country does
not enforce ITU-R BS412, set the ITU412-9 control to OFF.]
[If you are planning to use the 8500S in its stand-alone stereo encoder mode,
make sure that the multiplex power controller is turned off until you have fin-
ished setting up the other stereo encoder parameters. Otherwise, it will interfere
with setting output levels.]
A) Navigate to Setup > S
B) Set the multiplex power threshold by holding the ITU412 button down and
turning the knob so that the display indicates 0.0 dB.
