Receiving Vhf Transmission - Imperial DABMAN i500 BT Manual

To prevent these stations that are no longer available from displaying in the station list,
select the sub-item „Clear station list" and answer the confirmation prompt with „Yes".
Station order
The sub-item „Station order" in the DAB menu allows you to decide whether to sort the
broadcasters in the station list by alphanumeric order or by separate ensembles (these
are groups of stations broadcast together in a ‚packet') or by validity (stations without a
question mark before the station name).
DRC
DRC stands for dynamic range control. This feature lets you adjust volume differences
between different DAB+/DAB transmitters for a more homogeneous listening experi-
ence.

8.5 Receiving VHF transmission

Scan
In the main menu, use the navigation wheel to select the sub-item „FM" and confirm by
pressing the wheel. Pressing the navigation wheel again will find you the next available sta-
tion. Your DABMAN i500 BT has RDS and can therefore display the name of the station
(if broadcasted).
Scan settings
If you press the back button on your radio (or the remote control) while the FM radio is on,
you can specify in the sub-item „Scan settings" whether the device's search should only
consider powerful stations with good transmission quality.
Audio settings
If the FM reception is generally poor, you can specify in the sub-item „Audio settings" for
the stations to only be played in mono rather than in stereo. This can significantly reduce
the interference ratio of the signal.
Manual station search
As an alternative to scanning, you can use the Skip Back/Skip Forward buttons either on
the radio or on the remote control to jump to specific frequencies and find the stations
on those wavebands.
Receive time information via DAB, VHF or internet
You don't need to set the DABMAN i500 BT's built-in clock yourself, as many transmitters
broadcast a coded time signal along with your programme. However, this only works if you
receive the corresponding channels at sufficient quality. In the main menu, use the navi-
gation wheel to select the sub-item „System Settings", then „Date/Time" and then „Auto
Update". Now you can choose to receive the time signal from broadcasters via DAB/
DAB+, VHF or from the internet.
