The TravelPilot DX-R52’s precise locating makes sure you arrive safe and sound – like all Blaupunkt navigation systems, it is accurate right down to within three metres.
Entering your destination is incredibly quick and easy. The intelligent speller offers you only those letter combinations that make sense for your input.
And of course there are also a number of different route options available. You can select your options so that the system will calculate your route either with or without ferry connections, for example.
The TravelPilot navigation system is integrated into the car radio and controlled using the car radio keypad. The voice providing the spoken driving recommendations is emitted via the hi-fi speakers; symbols appear in the radio display. The navigation CD is inserted into the integrated CD/CD-ROM drive.
Neodymium tweeter
Tweeter equipped with neodymium magnets. Neodymium has much greater magnetic field strength than conventional materials and drives speakers very powerfully despite the relatively small magnets. This makes it possible to design very small tweeters, which nonetheless produce outstanding sound.
NTSC (National Television
System Committee)
US-American colour television system. The colour picture is optically divided into the three primary colours of red, green and blue in the TV camera and fed into three TV picture tubes.

O
OSD On-screen display
The settings menu shown on the screen. To adjust Blaupunkt products, it is possible to use either the remote control and/or the but- tons directly on the unit to select the desired menu item and to alter the corresponding value or perform the corresponding function.
P
PDA – Personal Digital Assistant
Small, pocket-sized computer, usually equip- ped with a touch screen and the Windows CE or Palm OS operating system.
PP (Polypropylene) cone
The PP cone developed by Blaupunkt is a solid, reliable cone. Acoustically, it creates a perfect frequency response and an extremely pleasant sound in the upper mid-range.
The PP cone is used in all the speakers in the In Car series as well as the ODsb 5000.
Preamp-Out
Preamp output to control external amplifiers, available in either 2-channel or 4-channel versions. A maximum of 3 volts output is standard. To improve sound quality and the control of external amplifiers, the top-of-the- line car radios have a maximum output of up to 5 volts.
Preset equalizer
Equalizer settings that provide ideal frequency curves at the touch of a button for different types of music (rock, pop, jazz, techno, speech and classical).
PTY – Program Type
➞RDS
PWF (Platinum Woven Fiber) cone
The PWF cone is made of a very durable, woven fibreglass material. Thanks to the cone fibre, which was specially developed by Blaupunkt, the PWF cone delivers an optimal frequency response with first-class resolution (particularly in the upper mid-range), con- trolled bass and excellent inner attenuation. The PWF cone is used for all coaxial (ODx) and component systems (ODc) in the OD series.

RDS – Radio Data System
RDS is a service provided by radio stations. In addition to the usual music and speech programs, other information is transmitted in the form of coded digital signals that can be evaluated by the car radio. The following RDS services are currently available:
AF – Alternative frequency:
The car radio automatically selects the frequency with the best reception for the program you are currently listening to.
EON:
When a traffic announcement (TA) is broad- cast, the radio will automatically switch from a station that does not transmit traffic infor- mation to one that does in the same broad- casting network.
M/S – Music/Speech:
In future, a number of radio stations will differentiate between music and speech pro- grams. A separate tone setting (lowering bass and treble) can be selected (via DSC) for speech programs.
PI Code:
The car radio uses the PI code to identify the radio station.
PS – Program Service:
Allows the display of the station name.
Technology 79
PTY – Program Type:
A function that is supported by an increasing number of radio stations, whereby the car radio can search for stations broadcasting specific program contents (e.g. news, rock, pop, sport, etc.).
RT – Radiotext:
Additional information supplied by the radio station on the programme (e. g. title of the programme, name of the artist, etc.).
Reinforced Seam Surround
Subwoofer with a max. power >1000 watts are subjected to enormous mechanical pres- sure. The joint between the surround and the cone in particular can tear under the strain of continuously high cone excursion. An extra seam sewn to join these two components reliably prevents damage to the speaker.
RP – Release Panel
Effective system of theft protection for car radios whereby you take part of or the entire front panel of the radio with you when you leave the vehicle. The radio will not function without the RP.
S
Scan
Scans all radio stations within reception range (Radio Scan), preset station buttons (Preset Scan) or music titles (CD Scan, CC Scan).
Sender list (dynamic)
Listing and automatic updating of all the radio stations within reception range. The advantage: you no longer need station keys and have access to all the available stations.
Sensitivity
Measurement for the volume of a speaker at 1 watt of input, measured at 1 metre’s distance. Sensitivity is measured in dB.
SHARX®
Digital adaptive filter designed to optimise channel separation in the receiver. Even stati- on signals that are extremely close to one another are separated cleanly. SHARX® is part of the DigiCeiver and TwinCeiver concepts.
