Here's an example of the text entry which results in RT & RT+ with the timeout of 2:56:
For RT only the entry can be simplified:
If you like Dynamic PS for any reason, there's a function 'Equal Text' which keeps the same text in both the RT and DPS:
The <dest> parameter in the XCMD must be set to 5:
Notes to the Dynamic PS use:
The Dynamic PS is deprecated and expressly forbidden by the RDS standard. The RDS Forum association recommends using only static PS. The RT and RT+ should be used instead.
Regardless of these facts, the Pira.cz encoders also implement another independent timeout function which is not driven by time elapsed but by number of repeatings of the text loop. This is useful in some situations because the behavior is well predictable although the text length varies.
