- Main Features:
- This sensitive and selective DSP-based (SDR) receiver has extended band coverage down to 64MHz.
- Easy front-panel setup uses jog-wheel menu navigation with a large LCD display. Accurate, hi-res metering shows RF signal and audio levels; critical system menus are hidden.
- Front-panel display of most-essential RDS/RBDS information including RT+ ‘tagging’ data.
- Balanced analog and AES-digital program line outputs are available simultaneously; levels are independently adjustable.
- Flashing-red front-panel alarms and rear-panel ‘tallies’ indicate RDS Loss or PI Error, Low Signal and Audio Program Loss.
- All receiver setup parameters are held in non-volatile memory.
- When issued, free firmware updates are easily installed in the field.

- Program Audio Output(s):
- Balanced Analog (XLR) Left and Right outputs are adjustable from –15dBu to +15dBu in 0.2dB steps.
- AES Digital (XLR) output at 44.1kHz is adjustable from –30dBFS to 0dBFS in 0.2dB steps.
- Headphone Jack (3.5mm TRS) has adjustable listening level.
- Flashing RED Front Panel Alarms:
- RDS: Alarm signals the loss of RDS data or font panel alarms; an error between the received PI code and a user-programmable PI code entry.
- Low Signal: Alarm and reset trigger levels are independently adjustable relative to the RF signal level display.
- Audio Loss: Alarm threshold is adjustable between 0dB and –40dB, the alarm delay interval is adjustable between OFF and 120 seconds.
- Alarm “Tallies”: Individual opencollector NPN transistor outputs to ground are programmable for logic polarity.
- USB Port: The front-panel mini-USB port allows the quick uploading of firmware updates when issued.
- Power Requirement: 12VDC at 290mA; a universal 90 - 240 VAC inline switching power supply is included with the INOmini 673 receiver.
- Mounting Options: An optional rack adapter accepts up to three INOmini modules in a 1U, 19-inch rack space. The 673 also may easily be fastened to any convenient surface with two small screws.
- Size and Weight: 1.6”H x 5.5”W x 5.5”D; 4 lbs. shipping weight.
