FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
The DMP230 is a media player with built-in FM radio tuner and 3-jingle spot announcer, allowing you to
play MP3 files from a solid-state USB memory (please see specific notes on media compatibility and
media file structure in the "files, folders and data conventions" chapter). Media navigation is facilitated
by file name readout on a clear-text display. As a second source a FM radio tuner with RDS station
readout is built-in. A jingle player / spot announcer allows you to insert jingles or adverts either on the
spot or via pre-programmed schedule. Completed by an IR remote control, the DMP230 represents a
simple yet sophisticated program source for any commercial sound system.
