RDS Encoder P232U

 

Overview

The P232U RDS Encoder is well suited for the vast majority of radio stations which use serial data channel (PC serial port, satellite link, serial over Ethernet) for the RDS content distribution. An independent USB communication port provides a simple way for local connection and configuration. The RDS encoder supports both dynamic and static operation. The device is equipped with standard analogue interface for seamless integration into the broadcast chain and interchangeability with other brand products.

Some features are unique: output data monitoring down to the bit level, direct conversion of XML tagging data to Radiotext Plus, port multiplication thru Windows control software and several others. Due to support of additional RDS2 data-stream, the P232U is future-proof equipment, ready for possible enhancements of the FM broadcasting.

This RDS encoder is characterized by proven concept, easy installation, great price and unsurpassed text processing capabilities. It maintains support for all RDS services and data formats that are commonly used.

Features:

  • Fully dynamic FM broadcast RDS encoder with two independent communication ports
  • Optically isolated RS-232 port, USB port
  • Control interface accepts ASCII commands, UECP protocol and X-Command
  • Text features include dynamic PS, parsing, scrolling, tagging, fixed messages and scheduling
  • Excellent compatibility with broadcast automation systems
  • External TA and Program set switch, bypass relay, switchable MPX loopthrough mode (Loop/Side)
  • Internal real-time clock
  • Supports separate data channel for station logo *)
  • Two switchable subcarrier configurations (RDS or RDS2)
  • Easy and fast set-up
