8. Digital radio: DAB/ DAB+

Digital Audio Broadcasting (DAB for short) is the digital

successor to analogue FM broadcasting. Digital transmission

has some differences from the familiar analogue FM radio:

Several stations are broadcast on one channel – the so-called

ENSEMBLES (= programme packages).

The stations in an ENSEMBLE are called SERVICES (= stations

and/or data services).

In Germany, for example, the ENSEMBLES are available

regionally from public broadcasters; moreover, there are

currently two ENSEMBLES that can be received throughout

Germany: DR DEUTSCHLAND and ANTENNE DE.

The stations do not output disagreeable noises known from

FM; a station is either heard with a consistent quality or not

heard at all when error correction is no longer able to

reconstruct the signal, accompanied by short, so-called

"bubbling" noises.

Starting to play the DAB/DAB+ radio

Use the SRC button to select one of the memory levels DAB1

dAB2 or DAB3.

Note: Some memory levels are inactive depending on the

setting; for example, only the DAB1 memory level is active.

See "SETTINGS".

Note: There are 5 memory slots available for each memory

level.

Searching/scrolling through stations

By turning the right button/knob, you can scroll up (clockwise)

or down (counter clockwise) through the stations in the

current Ensemble.

When turning, a new station is displayed; when you stop

turning, the displayed station is recalled and played.

After passing the first or last station of the current Ensemble,

the display will show <<< or >>>. You can now turn the knob

in the opposite direction to stay in the current Ensemble or

wait a moment while the unit automatically searches for and

plays the previous (<<<) or next (>>>) Ensemble.

Note: This function is the default setting for the right

button/knob in the DAB mode, but it can be changed, see

"SETTINGS".

If the basic setting has been changed, first select the function

by pressing the right button/knob; the SERVICE indication will

appear.

Ensemble Search

Press the right button/knob once, the display briefly shows

ENSEMBLE.

Then, turn the right button/knob in the desired direction to

find Ensembles on the lower or higher channels. The display

shows the current channel as you search until you find a new

Ensemble.

This search works the same way as the search that starts when

scrolling through stations when <<</ >>> is displayed – see

the previous section.

Searching the Preset List (Browse mode)

Press the right button/knob repeatedly until BROWSE appears

in the display.

Then, turn the right button/knob to scroll through the list of

stations stored in the unit.

Once the desired station is found, select it by pressing the

right button/knob.

Note: You can use the menu (see "SETTINGS") to start DAB

SERVICE SCAN, which updates the station list and removes

inactive stations from it.

Note: You can set the browse mode as the default setting

for the right button/knob in the DAB mode – see "SETTINGS".

PTY Search

If the PTY (programme type) function is enabled (see

"SETTINGS"), the PTY function can also be selected by pressing

the right button/knob.

Turn the right button/knob to start searching for the preset

PTY code (see "SETTINGS" for the pre-selection of PTY type).

Storing/selecting saved stations

You can save your favourite stations in the station memory

using the 1-5 buttons. Each memory level can store up to 5

stations.

Set the desired station as described above.

Then, press the desired memory button for about one second

until a beep confirms that the station has been stored; release

the button after the beep.

You can recall a saved station by briefly pressing the memory

button.

Playing saved stations (P-SCAN)

You can play back all stations at the selected memory level:

To do this, press the MENU button for more than one second.

The display will show P-SCAN and the current SERVICE.

The P-SCAN function continues until terminated by pressing

the right button/knob.

Playing the available stations (SCAN)

You can play all stations in the selected frequency band:

To do this, press the right button/knob for more than one

second.

The device first updates the service list with a scan, and then

displays SCAN and the current SERVICE.

The scanning (SCAN) continues until stopped by pressing the

right button/knob.

Changing the display

* PTY (programme type)

* Name of Ensemble (software package)

* Memory/memory level + channel

* Radio text

* Memory/memory level + time

Note: The display function availability depends on the

station.
