may also select a secondary input source to be used in the event you lose audio from the
primary s ource.
Once those paths are established, you can choose which of those three inputs feed each of
the processing cores. Depending upon configuration, this includes FM, HD-­‐1, HD-­‐2, HD-­‐3,

F M De-emphasized L/R is suitable for monitoring only. Feeding to a stereo
generator which provides pre-emphasis will work, but it WILL cause overshoots and you
WILL lose loudness. The Omnia.9 should be the ONLY device providing the FM Pre-
Emphasis. Any pre-emphasis in the FM Exciter/Transmitter should be defeated).
