# RDS Settings
### Show RDS errors
_Off/Small/Large_
Set the threshold for RDS error processing. The higher value, the higher change RDS parsing contains errors. Can be useful on disturbed FM signals
### Region
Set the RDS region. When switched to America the PTY will be changed to RBDS and also a call-sign will be shown under the PI code.
_Europe/Canada/USA/USA DB_
Set the RDS region. When switched to USA or Canada the PTY will be changed to RBDS and also a call-sign will be shown under the PI code. When USA DB is selected a database will be used to determ the callsign and state.
### Show underscore in RDS
_On/Off/PS Only_
This will replace <space> with underscores in PS and RT texts.
### RDS filter
_Off/On_
This will enable or disable the RDS buffer filter in the TEF chip. Disable this to have a quicker RDS decoding, but this can cause some errors direct after tuning.
### Show PI errors
_Off/On_
When enabled the PI code will also be shown, even when there are errors in the RDS data. Can be useful on weak FM signals. If the PI code decoding has errors, a question mark is shown next to the PI code.
### Use AF
Useful when you are on the road. When a certain threshold is reached, the radio will quickly scan for another transmitter with the same program, but with a better signal.
_Off/On/Reg_
Useful when you are on the road. When a certain threshold is reached, the radio will quickly scan for another transmitter with the same program, but with a better signal. The Reg option can be used for radiostations using AF-B method (regional).
### RT buffering
_Off/On_
This will buffer the Radiotext and show it when the A/B flag changes. It will give you a more smooth display of Radiotext.
### Auto sort AF
_Off/On_
Enable this to automatically sort the AF list from lowest to highest frequency.
### Fast PS
This will show the PS direct after tuning, even when all bytes are not received. This can cause missing characters direct after tuning, but gives you a faster PS.
_Off/Initial/Always_
Possibility to show PS, even when not all characters are received. This can cause missing characters direct after tuning, but gives you a faster PS.
### Show long PS
_Off/On_
When switched on, if a radiostation uses advanced RDS with Long PS support, this will be shown.
# FM Settings
### Set converter offset
_0/200-2400MHz_
Only useful when you have an external RF converter connected to the antenna input. Local oscillator value can be set between 200 and 2400MHz. For normal FM radio reception, leave it at 0MHz.
### Set low band edge
_65-107.9MHz_
Set the low edge for the FM band
### Set high band edge
_66-108MHz_
Set the high edge for the FM band
### Set level offset
_-25 - +15 dB_
Here you can set the RF level offset. You can use this to compensate cable losses or antenna amplifier gain, so the signal meter gives you the right value
### Set low level threshold
_-15 - 30 dBµV_
When the value is triggered, RDS will be disabled and data to the display slows down. Can be useful to prevent low signal stations disturbed by interference from the display.
### Softmute FM
_Off/On_
When you switch this ON, the audio volume is reduced when static is received
### FM Noise blanker
_Off/50-150%_
Can (in some cases) be helpful to reduce interference from noise sources.
### FM default stepsize
_50/100/200 kHz_
Set the default step size to 50 kHz, 100 kHz or 200 kHz.
### Select FM band
Set the FM bands which should be available when toggling the bands with the band button
### FMSI stereo improvement
_Off/On_
Only available on TEF6687/6689 models. Enable or disable the FM stereo improvement system.
### FM de-emphasis
Select the right de-emphasis, set to 75 µS when you are receiving signals in South and North America.
### Scan sensitivity
_1-30_
Sets the sensitivity for auto tuning on FM. Value will be used in auto tune mode, FM DX scanner, Auto memory function and Auto squelch.
# AM Settings
### Softmute AM
_Off/On_
Reduces audio volume when receiving static
### AM Noise blanker
_Off/50-150 %_
Can (in some cases) be helpful to reduce interference from noise sources.
### AM RF Level offset
_-50 - +15 dB_
Adjust this to your needs. When using an active antenna the value should be negative. You can play with this value to get the best DSP performance on AM bands
### Select AM band
Select the AM bands which should be available with the band selector
### Show SW wavelength
This will show the SW band next to the frequency, for example "49m".
_Off/On_
Show wavelength in meters for popular SW bands.
### AM CoChannel Detection
### CoChannel Detector
_Off/50-150 %_
Set the sensitivity for the AM CoChannel detector. When CoChannelling is detected it will be shown on the screen. It's only a detector, not a filter.
### CoChannel Det. Threshold
### CoChannel Det. counter
_1-15_
Set the threshold for the CoChannel detector
### AM ATT
Antenna attenuator setting for AM
### AM Antenna Gain
_Off/6/12/18/24/30/36 dB_
This function is primarily intended for AM active antenna applications to avoid unnecessary AGC control during ‘normal’ signal level conditions.
# Connectivity
### MW default stepsize
_9/10 kHz_
Set the default stepsize for medium wave band.
### Scan sensitivity
_1-30_
Set the sensitivity for auto tuning function.
# Connectivity & Clock
### USB Mode
_XDRGTK/RDS Spy_
Set if you want to connect to XDRGTK or RDS Spy when using USB. When switched to XDRGTK, the baudrate is set to 115200 bps. When switched to RDS Spy, the baudrate is 19200 bps.
### Wi-Fi Active
_Off/On_
Enable or disable the WiFi connection. When the connection has established, your IP address is shown on this line.
Remark: If not configured so far, please use the next menu item.
### Configure Wi-Fi
Set the radio in Wi-Fi configuration. Follow the instructions by connect your smartphone or your PC to the temporary WiFi starting with ESP... Then you need to chose the preferred WiFi and type in the password.
