munity Announce IP address and port. Normally
the Multicast address and port are left set to their
default settings, but these may be edited for spe-
cial purposes.
The HDE-200 sends status, meter data, and
community announce messages to the network
using Multicast Community Announcements so
that the data can be displayed on any ECC app
running on any computer in the network. Mul-
tiple Exporters will normally share the same Mul-
ticast address since the ECC app is designed to
administer multiple HDE-200 devices.
3.5.5.5 Show Signal Chain
Click System > Show Signal Chain... to open
the Signal Chain pop-up window, which is divided
into three columns to show the various Importers,
Exporters, and Exciters in the system.
The Exgine in the FlexStar Exciter emits Multi-
cast Community Announce messages like the
HDE-200. Its information appears in the Exciter
section.
The FlexStar Community Announce messages
are provided as a convenience since they are not
required for normal operation. In the future, they
may play a larger and more critical integrative role.
If you hover your mouse over the different ele-
ments of the available devices on the dialog box, a
pop-up dialog box appears describing the item.
This Signal Chain dialog box is expected to be-
come more evolved as other HD Radio
synchrocasting implementations become available.
Multiple Importers, Exporters and Exciters may
be visible in this dialog box, depending upon the
extent of your community.
3.5.5.6 GPS Configuration
Click System > GPS Configuration... to open
the GPS Settings pop-up window to show the
HDE-200’s GPS receiver performance.
The Current Coordinates section lists the lati-
tude, longitude, and altitude of the HDE-200 along
with the number of satellites that the GPS receiver
has detected. Clicking the Map button will dis-
play—provided the PC running ECC has Internet
access, the location of the HDE-200 receiver.
Check Override Coordinates to enter your
transmitter’s coordinates in lieu of using the coor-
dinates for the HDE-200’s location.
The Daylight Savings Time section allows you
to select the proper DST schedule for your loca-
tion. A local time Zone Offset, set in minutes, is
also available for locations that require this op-
tion. The settings for the standard North Ameri-
can time zones are shown on the next page:
