Full RDS/UECP
The Full RDS service needs 2 things to work:
- a valid Full RDS license
- the Full RDS service running
The Full RDS License is displayed as "Option Full RDS/UECP" in the licenses list.
It is available on all FM processors (Impact, Pulse, First) in box or in card.
Note that Eco boxes do not have RS232 connector for UECP. You will have to use UDP, TCP or a USB-RS232 adapter.
