Configuration Options and Possibilities / Re: Version 4 help (reading XML file)
« Last post by dennism on October 08, 2026, 03:03:07 am »
I have another problem with Version 4 and my P232U. Yesterday evening it suddenly stopped sending data to the transmitter. I can read the settings from the unit but nothing shows on air or in RDS Spy. It worked fine until yesterday.

It's a remote setup, connected by vpn through a Lantronix UDS1100. Baud rate 2400, port 3001. It's difficult to get to the site so I did a reset and also initialize command. Nothing helped. I uninstalled Magic RDS 4 and reinstalled. Right now I do not have any dynamic data feeding it, only a static message in RadioText.

It's acting like the encoder is disabled. It's set to enable.

Any ideas on where to look would be appreciated. Thanks.

No, that's not how it works; this isn't an Android phone  :)
If the webpage did not upload correctly, simply upload it again. This process takes place solely between your browser and the ConnectOne network module, and this is one of its characteristics that we cannot influence.

Jan- Thanks for all the information and the super quick response.
I was able to unlock two of the three units, get their address changed, and get them back in service. Unfortunately, the third one isn't cooperating. After entering the password, it looks like it's unlocked, but after a second or two it reverts to the login screen. It does this using all three iterations of the logon addresses I have: the plain, bare, IP address; the http://<device IP address>/?RESP=secure logon; and http://<encoder’s IP address>/ichip login from the new software package instructions.
At this point I'm thinking that the path of least resistance is to just reset it back to the factory settings and start over. Can you tell me how to do that? Thanks in advance... k

Version 2.2a of the embedded website:

https://pira.cz/rds/p132webu.zip
https://pira.cz/rds/p332webu.zip

Instructions included.

Release notes for the version 2.2a:
  • The password length restriction when setting it up via the website has been removed. It is now possible to enter a password of up to 15 characters.
  • Bug fix: If a password had been set, logging in via the standard URL sometimes failed on certain modern browsers.

If you are going to update the website, I also recommend updating the RDS firmware to prevent any potential incompatibility:

Yes, you are right. We discovered today that, due to timing issues, logging into the web interface of this old device from modern computers can indeed be hit-or-miss. It is possible to log in, but not always on the first attempt (you must press Reload before attempting to submit again). We have identified the cause in the internal website and are working on a solution. We will keep you updated over the coming days. In any case, by following the procedure described above, you have formally satisfied the FCC requirement.
As a temporary solution, use this URL to access password-protected internal website on modern browsers:
http://<device IP address>/?RESP=secure

I am attempting to log in to my 3) P332 encoders after installing 15 character passwords as previously demonstrated. So far, I appear to be locked out. I am wondering if the message in front of the password box is telling me to add characters in front of the password, or what its purpose is. I'd also like to know how to reset to a zero password condition.
 
WEB password (AT+iWpwd):

Thanks.

Hi Jan, OK, it works. Two pins on the PIRA processor were out of the socket; everything is working now and there are no communication errors. Thanks, and have a good evening. :) :) :) ;D ;D

The version released today includes expanded error messages for broken XML file processing. This might help you identify where the problem lies.

Version 4.3.2 (build 2026-10-10)

https://magicrds.com/download/MagicRDS_Setup.exe

  • New add-on: Network adapter assign. Please read Help - netadapt.pdf for details.
  • All HTTP/HTTPS client operations now use latest libcurl library rather than WinINet API
  • Legacy HTTP client removed
  • Simple HTTP and XML Template models: test button and adjustable distribution delay added
  • Bug fix: Simple HTTP model sometimes indicated trial in paid licenses
  • Bug fix: Access violation if XML file was corrupted

Network adapter assign: Professional multi-network operation

Many general-purpose applications leave all network selection entirely to the operating system. That approach is convenient, but it may not provide sufficient control for demanding installations. Assign Network Adapter add-on gives Magic RDS 4 explicit control over how individual connections and services access the network. This improves predictability, separation of network traffic and operational reliability — exactly the kind of control expected from professional RDS and broadcast automation software.

We have modified a significant portion of the code related to network operations. Although we have made every effort to test everything thoroughly, it is still possible that we have not covered every real-world scenario. Please report any potential issues to us, and we will resolve them as quickly as possible.

Legacy HTTP client removed

In this version, the implementation of a modern interface for HTTP/HTTPS communication necessitated the removal of the legacy HTTP client. This step had been announced in advance via a notice within the program itself. The simplest replacement is to create a new Connection with the "Hybrid radio" kind and "Simple HTTP" model (see the image). Current solution now supports:
  • Latest secure https protocols
  • Selectable GET or POST or combined method
  • Multiple instances (can feed any number of websites or devices with different data)
  • XML/JSON elements in separate variables (for example artist and title)
  • Adjustable distribution delay
Alternatively, use the Connection kind Bridge and appropriate "Internal channel" commands.
Please note that sending text to the website works under all licenses but in the "Basic" and "Activated" license it operates in trial mode.

We continue to maintain the application so that it remains runnable on old versions of Windows, such as XP and Vista. However, some modern network features and secure protocols depend on capabilities provided by the operating system and may be unavailable or limited.
