S1000-DAB User Guide
INTRODUCTION
The S1000-DAB is an in-car audio adaptor that offers a flexible and cost effective way to
apply modern digital audio technology to your existing analogue in-car audio system.
The existing analogue system can be easily upgraded to receive DAB digital radio
services without replacement of any component of the car audio system. In addition, the
S1000-DAB can receive audio output from an audio device such as MP3 or iPod
®
etc.
digital music player, and can convert this signal to an FM signal. Rather than listening the
audio device through headphones, you can therefore play the audio device through the
in-car audio system.
The S1000-DAB is operated on its own and all messages related to the system’s
operations, such as station name, memory preset, etc., are displayed on the LCD screen
of the S1000-DAB, and it is easy to install it in the different car makes and models.
Further, S1000-DAB has an AutoTune function that allows you to continuously listen to
your favorite DAB programs thru your car radio system without the need to change the
FM frequency manually when you drive
into an area where the FM frequency transmitted
by S1000-DAB is used by an FM broadcaster. Consult your car radio manual or the car
dealer if your car radio is RDS compatible, has the AF (alternative frequency) function,
and how to enable AF function before using this AutoTune function.
If AF function is not built in your car radio, you can use S1000-DAB’s AutoScan function
to automatically scan for 3 useable FM frequencies; you will need to choose a new
frequency from the scanned frequencies to set and synchronize it between the car radio
and the S1000-DAB manually. Alternately, you can use S1000-DAB’s to set a new FM
transmitting frequency manually or set a frequency from one of the FM transmitting
frequency presets which have been previously saved, and then set the car radio’s FM
frequency to match.
