Hi,

it worked perfectly.

Had only a bit of a problem with syntax - I forgot to add ":" to sendto source: command.
   
Thank you for your help.

Data splitter also looks like an awesome option - did not try it yet - but will definitly consider it.

Great software! :)

Don't forget that you can also control all the encoder's directly by a single TCP connection.  :)
This method is described in m4vp.pdf, section Data Splitter for RDS Encoders.

If you type the command TA=1 followed by [Enter] in any TCP terminal, all the RDS encoders will receive it, translated to individual RDS encoder's communication protocol, where applicable.

Not all methods have been tested yet, don't hesitate to let us know if something is not working as expected or if something is not clear.

Any RDS service, incl. the TA, can be controlled by any available external text source: local file, remote file, TCP, serial etc.

  • Configure a new external text source.
    For TCP, follow the file m4vp.pdf in the application doc folder, section Redirecting to External Text Sources.
  • In the external text tool, go to Text Conditions, select the external text source from step 1 and fill the condition and command.

For sending TA to all encoders, the command is
Code: [Select]
send connection:"*" command:"TA=1"
The command is automatically translated to the encoder's communication protocol, depending on the encoder's model (ASCII PIRA, UECP, MicroRDS etc.).

The new External text tool, which is being developed, will bring further options.

Hello,

I have a question regarding TA flag triggering.

Would it be possible to trigger TA flag via external source that conects to computer running software via simple TCP telnet command?
And if what is the correct vay to do this?

If not - is there any other way of triggering this flag in the software for all the destinations via external source?

Thanks for your help in advance and br, David
