AEV RDS Evo 5.0 LCD

The AEV RDS Evo 5.0 LCD is an advanced encoder designed to meet the evolving needs of signal management for FM stations. Here are some key features and specifications:

1. DSP-Powered Encoder: Utilizes the latest generation Digital Signal Processor (DSP) for efficient signal processing.
2. RDS Signal Decoder: Fully equipped with an RDS signal decoder, allowing decoding of external RDS signals, modification of data locally, and regeneration of RDS data package for supply to the FM transmitter.
3. PI Code Monitoring: Monitors the Program Identification (PI) code contained in external RDS signals, enabling automatic switching between external and internally generated MPX signals based on programmed criteria.
4. GPO Port: Provides external access to machine inputs, facilitating interface with transmitter telemetry systems.
5. Ethernet Control: Can be controlled via Ethernet through an internal web server, eliminating the need for PC software installation. The web server can be configured as a client or server, depending on network setup.
6. Password Protection: Offers the option to activate a password for limiting access to setup parameters, ensuring security against unauthorized personnel.
