DAB Radio Mode

• Check that your Micro is in DAB mode. If you are not already in DAB mode, short press
the Mode button on the Micro or on the remote control until you are in DAB mode
(check the display).

• The first time you use your Micro or if the station list is empty, your Micro will
automatically begin to scan for DAB radio stations. Scan and then after a short delay
the number of stations found during the scan will also be displayed.

• If you were listening to a DAB station when you switched the Micro off, then this
station will automatically be selected when you switch the radio back on.

Wire radio aerial

Please make sure that the wire aerial on the back of the Micro is fully extended and
adjusted before you attempt to tune to a DAB radio station (a vertical position is
recommended). This will ensure that the maximum signal strength is available when the
Micro begins to scan. Extending the aerial also ensures the best possible sound quality.

Changing DAB stations

In DAB mode:

1. Use the or buttons on the Micro or the or buttons on the remote
control to scroll through the available stations.

2. When the station that you would like to listen to is displayed, short press the Select
button on the Micro or on the remote control. There will be a short delay whilst your
Micro tunes to your selected station.

Scanning for DAB stations

With DAB radio, additional stations and services regularly become available so it’s a good
idea to carry out a manual scan every now and then to make sure that you have the most
up to date station listing stored within the memory of your Micro.

If you have moved your Micro to another location, e.g.: if you go on holiday, then it’s also
a good idea to carry out a manual scan.

If you require any tec hnical guidance or find that you r product is not operating as inten ded, a simple solution can oft en be found in the

Tune to a DAB station preset

In DAB mode:

1. Short press the Preset button on the Micro or the Prog. button on the remote control.
The name or frequency or a stored station will be displayed, or ‘Empty 1’ if no station
has been stored.

DAB display information

When listening to a DAB station you can change the information that will appear on the
display. There are several different types of information that are sent by the broadcaster.

• Dynamic Label Segment (DLS)

This is scrolling text information supplied by the broadcaster. Information could be the
name of an artist or music title, DJ’s name, contact details for the radio station etc.

• Signal Strength

An empty will appear on the display to indicate the minimum signal strength for
acceptable listening. The row of solid rectangles indicate the actual signal strength
that you are receiving. The stronger the signal, the further to the right the row of solid
rectangles will be.

• Program Type (PTY) - such as ‘Rock’, ‘Pop‘, Talk’ or ‘News’

• Multiplex Name - displays the broadcasting area and collection of radio stations on
this frequency e.g.: BBC National DAB, Digital 1 Network.

• Channel and Frequency - e.g.: 12B 225.648 MHz

• Signal error

This is displayed as a number between 0-99. It would not be possible to satisfactorily
listen to a radio station with a signal error rate of 30 or above. Try adjusting the aerial
or relocating your radio to improve reception.

• Signal information - The data rate at which the signal is being transmitted.

1. Repeatedly short press the Menu button on the Micro or the remote control to cycle

through the different information options.

Dynamic range control (DRC)

In DAB mode:

The dynamic range for each radio programme is set by the broadcaster for each radio
station and may be different for the types of programme broadcast, such as pop or
classical music or a chat show. The dynamic range control signal is transmitted in parallel
with the audio signal for each programme and with your Micro you can use this control
signal to expand or compress the dynamic range (the difference between the loudest and
quietest sounds) of the reproduced audio signal. Changing the dynamic range can affect
the ‘loudness’ and/or ‘quality of sound’ of the programme that you hear so that it will be
more suited to your listening conditions and your own personal listening requirements.
e.g. in a noisy environment, where quiet sounds might be swamped, setting the
compression to maximum will ‘boost’ the quiet sounds, whilst keeping the loudest sounds
at their original level.

There are 3 levels of compression:

• DRC off: No compression. This is the default setting.

• DRC low: Medium compression.

• DRC high: Maximum compression.

1. Long press the Menu button on the Micro or on the remote control. Use the or

buttons on the Micro or the or buttons on the remote control to scroll to

DRC. Short press the Select button.

2. Use the or buttons on the Micro or the or buttons on the remote

control to scroll through the options available and short press the Select button.

adjusted before you attempt to tune to an FM radio station (a vertical position is
recommended). This will ensure that the maximum signal strength is available when the
Micro begins to scan. Extending the aerial also ensures the best possible sound quality.
