One of our core competencies lies in the RDS/RBDS. The RDS/RBDS page is very
comprehensive, with a display of the RadioText (RTA and RTB), basic RDS/RBDS elds and a
table of all decoded RDS/RBDS groups with a percentage measurement based on the overall RDS/
RBDS data stream or group count. A very useful graph on this display is the rolling RDS/RBDS
bit error rate (BER) display.
Total groups Indicator – all received groups are systematized into a table, representing the
percentage/quantity of the groups in the received RDS/RBDS signal. The user selects how the
“Total groups received” data should be displayed: as Percents (%) or Count, by selecting the
corresponding button.
NOTE: The bit error rate or bit error ratio (BER) is the number of bit errors divided by the
total number of transferred bits during a studied time interval. Result closer or equal to 0 indicates
that no bit errors are detected and vice versa result closer or equal to 1 indicates that the received
transferred bits are only errors.

The FM graph is a multi-colored plot of MPX, Pilot, Left and Right audio levels. These
mandatory parameters are represented in the time slice of 2 minutes, ensuring reading at a glimpse
all signicant parameters of the analog signal. Each parameter has its own color representation
and measurement units, which are indicated on the right-side of the graph. When RDS mode is
selected, the MPX and PILOT readings are in kHz. When RBDS mode is selected, the readings
are in %.

MPX SCREEN
65 Aleksandar Stamboliyski Str., 8000 Bourgas, Bulgaria
The MPX page shows the baseband MPX deviation as a function of deviation in kHz over the
observation period. The graph immediately shows modulation density.
There is also a rolling 30-minute graph of the MPX power with average indicator, measured in
dBr. The MPX Power is calculated continuously with an integration window of 60 seconds and
a new sample every 10 seconds. Therefore, the rst sample is available 60 seconds after tuning.
The rule of MPX Power provides to measure the modulation power which is seen equal to
modulate signal electric power, for one minute time period and to compare it to a sinusoidal
modulating signal one which deviates ±19kHz. The result, expressed in dB, must be lower or equal
to zero to comply with the rule.

The DB4402 can monitor 6 FM Stations at regular intervals and send alarm notication via
E-mail, SMS, SNMP. Every Channel consists of a group of settings (explained in details below),
which are used when monitoring and alerting. Each preset has its own page where it is being
congured. Measurement windows can be set for each of the six parameters: RF level, Left and
Right audio levels, MPX (baseband) deviation, Pilot and RDS/RBDS deviation. Trigger and alarm
release times can be set for each alarm.

- Enable – enables/disables channel monitoring and sending of warnings and alarms;
- Frequency – specify the frequency to be monitored;
- Name – channel alias;
- Observation – specify the observation time for the current station (before switching to the
next channel).
NOTE: When MPX Power alarm is enabled the observation time must be more than 70 seconds.
Alarm Control
- Alarm – enables/disables the corresponding parameter alarm logging;
- Warning – enables/disables the corresponding parameter warning;
- E-mail – enables/disables E-mail notication;
- SMS – enables/disables SMS notication;
- SNMP – enables/disables SNMP notication.
NOTE: If the monitoring option is disabled, notications will not be sent, nevertheless whether
they are enabled or disabled. A click on the label (left or above) will enable/disable the entire
column/row.
To ensure early notication in case of a potential or actual problem, the DB4402 provides twostage alarm notications.
- Stage 1 – Warning for a potential problem. It has a narrower range;
- Stage 2 – Alarm for actual problem. It has a wider range.
Alarm
- Alarm Range – interactive slider used to adjust the Low & High thresholds at which an alarm
will be generated;
- Warning range – interactive slider used to adjust the Low & High thresholds at which a
warning for possible problem will be generated;
- Trigger Time – waiting time before Active Alarm/Warning is generated;
- Release Time – waiting time before Idle Alarm/Warning is generated;
- RDS/RBDS Group Alarm – alarm only for selected groups will be generated.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Alarms are generated only when the Logger mode is running. Until
there is any user interaction, alarm will not be generated and send. The Logger starts running once
the user logs out of the WEB interface.
The release time denes the time, which should elapse in order for the received signal to be
dened as restored/OK. The release time is user-dened. What we recommend is the release time
to be bigger than the trigger time.
NOTE: When setting Trigger and Release times, have in mind that 01:00 means 1 minute, and
00:01 means 1 second.

After collecting all the data the DB4402 DSP core compares the values measured with the
predened by the user threshold levels for all the channels monitored. In case that any parameter
is out of its limits or a potential problem has been detected, the device will initiate the sending of
alarm/warning notication via the alarm type selected. All the alarms/warnings are stored in the
device’s log. You have to have in mind that, if there is a very short fault of the signal, with duration
less than the ‘channel trigger time’, the device would not trigger an alarm/warning.
There are several Alarm/Warning Triggers for the following parameters: RF, MPX, MPX Power,
Left/Right Audio, RDS and Pilot levels. There is an option for dening different limits for each
of the parameters. All these values, the ‘trigger time’ and the ‘release time’ have to be assigned
separately for each of the channels.

Every time an observation event takes place, the Alarm/Warning Trigger’s State of the channel
refreshes (if necessary). For example: Let’s suppose that the Alarm/Warning Trigger is in Idle state.
Note, that an alarm is not triggered immediately when a parameter level passes over threshold
(above High Threshold or under Low Threshold). If the parameter level becomes stable (within
Thresholds) and Alarm/Warning Trigger Time is not elapsed, then Alarm/Warning Trigger remains
in Idle state. If Alarm/Warning Trigger Time expires and the parameter level is still out of bounds,
then Alarm/Warning Trigger changes its state to Active. This causes predened actions - Alarm/
Warning Notications (E-mail, SMS, SNMP trap) and Save a Log Record. The state will not be
immediately changed to Idle when the parameter stabilizes (within Threshold levels), but will wait
until ‘Alarm/Warning Release Time’ is elapsed. Meanwhile if the parameter passes over again any
Threshold, the Alarm/Warning Trigger will remain in Active state. If the parameter remains within
Threshold levels and Alarm/Warning Release Time expires, Alarm/Warning Trigger switches to
Idle state and again predened actions are initiated (as when entering Active state).

When Internet Time is enabled, DB4402 will automatically adjust its internal clock through
the Internet. When Internet Time is disabled, Date and Time should be entered manually into
corresponding elds or lled from PC Clock by pressing the ‘Get From PC’ button.
Ping Watchdog
The idea of this feature is a connection to DB4402 over the Internet to be established if the
device is connected behind a mobile router. If there is no connection with the Internet, some mobile
routers disconnect their radios and the DB4402 will become inaccessible. The Ping Watchdog will
make enough trafc for the router to stay connected to the network. Reboot is needed because
there are some routers that nevertheless the ping, will disconnect. Reconnection will be made only

One of our core competencies lies in the RDS/RBDS. The RDS/RBDS page is very
comprehensive, with a display of the RadioText (RTA and RTB), basic RDS/RBDS elds and a
table of all decoded RDS/RBDS groups with a percentage measurement based on the overall RDS/
RBDS data stream or group count. A very useful graph on this display is the rolling RDS/RBDS
bit error rate (BER) display.
Total groups Indicator – all received groups are systematized into a table, representing the
percentage/quantity of the groups in the received RDS/RBDS signal. The user selects how the
“Total groups received” data should be displayed: as Percents (%) or Count, by selecting the
corresponding button.
NOTE: The bit error rate or bit error ratio (BER) is the number of bit errors divided by the
total number of transferred bits during a studied time interval. Result closer or equal to 0 indicates
that no bit errors are detected and vice versa result closer or equal to 1 indicates that the received
transferred bits are only errors.

NOTE that in order for a frequency to be included in the audio stream, the channel must be
enabled. If frequency, name and observation time are set, but the channel is not enabled, it will not
be included in the audio stream, but will appear in the Channel Preset Buttons, hence allowing the
frequency to be heard upon manually pressing the relevant button.
Each of the 6 channels includes the following settings:
• Enable – includes the frequency in the constantly playing/rotating audio stream;
• Frequency – specifying the frequency to be monitored/streamed;
• Name – species the name of the channel;
• Observation – sets the time duration - how long will the audio from this channel will be

Ping Watchdog
The idea of this feature is a connection to DB4402 over the Internet to be established if the
device is connected behind a mobile router. If there is no connection with the Internet, some mobile
routers disconnect their radios and the DB4402 will become inaccessible. The Ping Watchdog will
make enough trafc for the router to stay connected to the network. Reboot is needed because
there are some routers that nevertheless the ping, will disconnect. Reconnection will be made only
if there is a disconnect and connect at the LAN port.
The Ping Watchdog will ping the specied IP address for connection status. If the remote IP
address does not respond to Ping for the specied number of times (Max Retries), the DB4402 will
power reboot. Please note that the ‘Ping Watchdog’ is disabled by default.

To fulll the Remote Monitoring Functions via GMS it is necessarily to connect an external
GSM modem to DB4402. To do this, connect the GSM Modem to the rear panel DB-15 male
connector through the cable provided together with GSM Modem. A GSM Antenna must be
supplied and connected to the connector of the GSM Modem.
IMPORTANT: Position the GSM Antenna as far as possible from the DB4402’s FM Antenna.
WARNING: Please check SIM Card PIN request to be disabled. Otherwise DB4402 can not
operate the modem.
The GSM Modem must be congured with the following settings:
Baud rate: equal to DB4402 setting (see “Main Settings Screen” on page 49)
Data bits: 8
Stop bit: 1
Parity: None
Hardware Flow Control: None
NOTE: The GSM Modems provided by DEVA Broadcast Ltd. are pre-congured. In case of
using different modems, please comply with the settings above.
To ensure proper installation of the GSM Modem, please observe the following sequence:
1. Install and connect the GSM Antenna according to the above recommendations.
2. Insert the SIM card into the holder. Card must be with deactivated PIN request.
3. Connect the GSM Modem and DB4402 with the communication cable.
4. Power-up the GSM Modem.
5. Power-up DB4402.
If the installation is proper, the GSM Modem will immediately startup. This will be noticed by
the fast blinking of the ‘GSM’ Led on the DB4402’s front panel. The status of the GSM Modem
will also be exposed on “Status Screen”. Few seconds are usually necessary for the GSM Modem
to initialize and to register into the GSM Network. When the GSM Modem is Ready the ‘GSM’
Led will start blinking slowly. The GSM Opeartor’s Logo and the Field Strength will be also
shown on the “Status Screen”.
It is important to notice the call duration, which is 1 minute, otherwise the GSM connection
may turn overused. ‘Call Duration’ denes the maximum outgoing call duration, which will be
hanged-up by DB4402 when it reaches the dened value (1 minute).
Only authorized GSM numbers can request remote notications and remote listening. To
register up to four GSM numbers use Main Settings Screen.
It is important to enter the GSM numbers properly, using the correct prex for the country. For
example: +359898123456
NOTE: The GSM Modem may be connected to DB4402 without shutting down the device - so
called ‘Hot Plug’. When disconnected or powered down, the GSM Modem can be reconnected after
the ‘GSM’ Led stops blinking (about 5 seconds). To prevent possible problems, we recommend,
when possible, not to use ‘Hot Plug’.

FREQ:102.50MHz
RF:32.7dBuV
MPX:103.2kHz
Left:-4.8dB
Right:-4.9dB
Pilot:7.5kHz
RDS:18.5kHz
‘Remote Audio Listening’ command will generate (only if the calling number is authorized)
a response call from DB4402 to the command sender. DB4402 will wait for answer, and will
hang-up after 30 seconds, if there is no incoming answer. When a call is accepted, the duration of
‘listening’ is determinate by ‘Call Duration’ interval or until the call is ended.
