In many FM transmitter configurations, the audio/MPX is connected by a separate cable so the switch will stay in the SIDE position.
If such separate way does not exist for the audio, the LOOP position is correct.
See our pdf manual, Installation section, for all possible configurations and appropriate setup.

« on: January 21, 2021, 05:49:25 pm »OK, so the connection seems to be correct. Thus the reason for the distorted audio is the RDS level which is set to much higher value.
The module comes out from the factory with RDS level set to 2000 mVpp (LEVEL=128) which is ok for some equipment but it may be too strong for another. Unfortunately, the RDS level is not standardized and many broadcast equipment manufacturers do not specify the RDS level required for their transmitter. It is always necessary to adjust the RDS level after installation.
If the RDS is audible, it indicates that the level is maybe 10 times higher than required. So adjust the RDS level to considerably lower value. (Correct method is to use an FM broadcast analyzer.)
The RDS level can be adjusted either in the Terminal or in the Device Setup / Analog Control, as showed below.
Once the result is ok, confirm by *LEVEL in the Terminal or pressing the Apply button in the Analog Control.

Anyway, try typing this in the Terminal:
and then
Also, if possible, take a photo of the BNC cables connection so we can see the panel and connectors the encoder is connected to. There's something strange if corresponding connection diagram requires the switch to be in the SIDE position but you cannot hear the audio when doing so.

I bought a p232 rds module we programmed it and the rds section works fine, but as regards the audio output you can hear a rustle and the audio comes out distorted, I tried to adjust the rds audio output through software but the audio remains distorted, moreover in the instructions it is written that the switch J1 must be on "side" if I leave it on the "side" position the audio does not come out, I have to position switch J1 in the "Loop" position to exit the audio . Kindly can someone help me to solve the problem?
