LINK Comunicaciones S.A.  ADVANCED RDS-TDC GENERATOR permitts to attach in FM transmission, all RDS functions. Is equipped with two "RISC" technology microcontrollers that processes and keep all data to broadcast. One of them works with the fixed data of the station (TA-PI-PS-AF-etc). Record directly from a "PC" through RS-232 port, all station data, screen sequences, etc... willing a Windows 98SE-ME-NT-2000-XP program available in the download section. As other Link Comunicaciones S.A. RDS Coders, acced directly to TA - PI/PS functions. Second microcontroller takes charge to process variable data in real time. Those data can proceed from a "PC" , high estability watch, etc. This characteristic permitts ACTIVE R.D.S. GENERATOR to process and attach to RDS tram data, orders, as the "TRANSPARENT CHANNEL". 

With this equipment is possible to controlate from a FM local station, a large list of municipal services like switch on or switch off urban lights (total or sectors, alternately, to safe energy, etc.), to check semaphores, to activate municipal or road labels with messages for the inhabitings, drivers, to know about free parkings, to activate water pumps, ornamental springs, ....  To install this system isn´t necessary to twist the streets. This system is active in all FM station covering.
