Station logo via the RDS

[Dimitar]

Hi,

we use PIRA 32 RDS (bought about 10 years ago).
I would like to ask how to upload photo of station logo ?

Thanks, BR  .

The station logo feature has been removed from the RDS2 standard before final release. There's currently no such function at all.

When you're listening to some FM stations, you can see the logo on some car radios. That logo was uploaded to the car radio memory by some of these methods:

1) via parallel DAB+ broadcast
2) via USB stick
3) via car radio firmware update
4) via online connection

We will support the station logo as soon as final IEC standard is published. However, you cannot expect to get it working on old RDS encoders due to different hardware required. The logo will work with the P164 and P232(U) RDS encoders.
