Can’t get RT+ working with Deva DB6400 (via TCP User Defined 1)

[Marc1963]

I’m trying to send RT+ data to my Deva DB6400.
Using User Defined 1 with TCP, I can successfully send regular RadioText to the RDS.

My current settings:

TCP client: 192.168.105.178
Port: 2233
TCP keep-alive: disabled
Options: bidirectional

However, I can’t get RT+ to work on the Deva.
I’m using FM Scope together with RDS Spy to monitor what’s going on, but RT+ simply doesn’t appear.

Has anyone successfully managed to send RT+ to a DB6400 through Magic RDS 4?
Any advice or working configuration examples would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance,

I don't see the RT+ in the DB6400's list of available functions.

Please visit our website https://pira.cz/rds/ for current offer of full-featured RDS encoders. They can be attached to the DB6400 as well.

We currently have a standard key. Do we need a full license to use this, and can we upgrade?

There is no problem with the license. Some equipment does not support RT+ in any way. You need a full-featured RDS encoder.

The RT+ is a standard RDS service like PS or RT. The RT+ is practically essential for taking full advantage of the display capabilities of today's receivers. A component without RT+ support should not be referred to as an RDS encoder, but rather as an RDS generator.

Thanks for the information. I sent an email to Deva support, and their response was: "The DB6400 does not support UECP and RT+."
