FlexMon FM01 RDS TMC/RT+ Decoder
Professional, flexible Monitoring Device
Overview
With the 2wcom FlexMon FM01 broadcasters are now able to monitor their transmitted RDS data effectively around the clock. The FlexMon enables the monitoring of all RDS data (TMC, RT+, RT, PI, PS, CT, TA, TP). The operator also has the option to choose individual RDS group data. In case of failure of certain RDS groups an alarm will be generated via SNMP or relay. The FlexMon is particularly suited for operators with main focus to monitor TMC data.

The 2wcom FlexMon FM 01 RDS TMC/RT+ Decoder is used as a control receiver for regional radio stations. The receiver’s relay contact activates a warning indicator in form of an activated control sign on the display of the mixing console. From time to time it happens that the identifier remains activated, although the signal for the end of announcement was already given. I am not currently aware of any receiver on the market that is including this functionality.
