PROGRAMMING SOFTWARE:
Based on our more than 15 years experience in the RDS field, the SmartGen RDS/RBDS Encoders Manager was developed as a dedicated software for full management of our high-end RDS Encoders range in regards to the latest updates of the UECP EBU SPB490 Version 7.05
 
It supports a wide range of interfaces such as RS-232, USB and LAN. The SmartGen Manager has “Basic RDS” and “Advanced RDS” programming interfaces. Using its “Basic” Mode, all main RDS parameters can be easily programmed into the non-volatile memory of the RDS Encoder. The interactive simulator shows the outgoing scrolling messages exactly as they are seen displayed to the listeners.
 
The SmartGen RDS/RBDS Encoders Manager has all the functionalities required to drive any parameter by the latest version of the UECP EBU SPB490 Version 7.05. Its visual and self-guided user interface makes the UECP advanced programming of the SmartGen Encoders easy and user-friendly.
