INFORMATION SETTINGS
The DAB signal contains besides the radio station additional information. This information can be made visible in the lower display line of the Information Display.
The following information is available to display:
1Dynamic Label Segment (DLS): scrolling text, supplied by the broadcaster.
2Program Type: describes the type of broadcast, e.g. Pop Music or Drama.
3Multiplex Name: will show the name of the multiplex of the broadcaster.
4Time and Date.
5Bitrate: shows the bit rate of the incoming digital signal.
6Channel and Frequency.
To change between the options, press the Info Button on the front panel or on the remote control. Note that the upper display line will always show the actual station. Pressing the Info Button again will show the next option. When you have found the information you would like to display, press the Select Button to activate the change.
MENU CONTROL
The DAB mode in the C445 Tuner contains a menu structure to access various system options. To enter the menu, press the Menu Button on the front panel or on the remote control once. To scroll through the list of sections of the menu, turn the Control Ring or press the Scroll / Tune Buttons on the remote control. The sections will be shown on the lower display line in the Information Display. To enter a section and see the options, press the Select Button. You can scroll through the options with the Control Ring and activate an option by pressing the Select Button once that option is shown on the Information Display.
SIGNAL ERROR RATE
In this section you can see the level of correction the C445 Tuner is applying to the DAB signal to maintain the audio quality. The level will be indicated by a numeric value between 0 (no correction) and 99 (maximum correction). For an acceptable quality, the value of 50 should not be exceeded.
Operation
BASIC OPERATION
PRESET TUNE
In this section you can tune presets of stations that broadcast only periodically, stations which were not found during the Autotune process. If you return to this preset in the future, and at that time there is no broadcast, or the broadcast signal strength is poor, then the display will show STATION NOT AVAILABLE.
DYNAMIC RANGE CONTROL (DRC) VALUE
In this section you can set the level of compression of stations to eliminate the differences in dynamic range or sound level between radio stations. Popular music would normally be more compressed than classical music, resulting in possible different audio levels when changing from one station to the other. Setting the DRC to 0 means no compression, 1/2 indicates medium compression and 1 shows maximum compression. No compression is recommended, especially for classical music. Note that other radio stations may be far louder, so make sure that amplifier levels are not set too high when changing from one station to another.
MANUAL TUNE
In this section you can activate Manual tuning, in case the Autotune function is unable to find any stations. You can also use Manual tuning to assist in positioning the antenna for best reception of a specific station.
