Introduction
SourceCon™ DAB/DAB+ & FM tuner module
The DMP42 is a professional DAB/DAB+ & FM tuner featuring SourceCon™ modular technology. This unique technology
guarantees true plug & play implementation to any compatible device. When inserted to a supporting slot, the module is
instantly installed, discovered and ready for operation without requiring any additional internal wiring or complex conguration.
The DMP42 provides access to a wide variation of radio stations while guaranteeing a high quality audio reproduction. Station
selection can be done manually or automatically, while up to 10 preferred channels can be internally stored and recalled.
Radio station information carried by RDS / Radiotext can be retrieved, while other functions such as mono/stereo switching
(FM) always guarantee the best possible audio clarity.
The signal output level is user congurable, while dynamic range compression (DRC) is supported, improving the intelligibility
for low volumes in applications with high levels of background noise. Signal reception strength can be retrieved from the
module and indicated on the graphical interface of the controlling device.
The antenna input is implemented by an F-type connector on its panel, allowing connection of the included antenna cable
or any other external antenna using 75 Ωcoaxial cabling. The balanced stereo line output is connected through two 3-pin
terminal block connections.

Overview DMP42
1) Balanced stereo line output:
The balanced stereo line output is implemented using two 3-pin terminal block connectors. The audio output available on
this connector allows it to be fed to any amplier or pre-amplier.
The DMP42 is a SourceCon™ compatible module featuring an (internal) board-edge connector which carries all signals for
getting it connected to any supporting main unit.
All external in & output connections shall be made using the available connectors on the panel.
2) F-type antenna connection:
The antenna (input) connection is implemented using an F-type connector whereto the supplied antenna should get connected.
Depending of the installation conditions, location and signal strength, it can be recommended / necessary to extend the
antenna using 75Ωcoaxial cable and connect an external or outdoor antenna

3) Antenna power supply jumper (5V):
An internal jumper enables a 5 Volts supply on the antenna connection for powering active antennas. Active antenna’s include
a small signal amplier, improving reception and signal transmission to the receiver.
In default conguration the antenna power supply is disabled. Enabling is done by changing the position of the corresponding
jumper as indicated below.

NOTE
Verify whether the connected antenna is an active or a passive model. When the antenna power supply is enabled to a
passive model, permanent damage to the equipment might occur. The default supplied (included) antenna is a passive
model, not requiring the antenna power to be enabled.
