6.3. Manual/Compatibility Mode:
6.3.1. Automatic Switching between NICAM and
In case of bad NICAM reception or loss of the
NICAM-carrier, the MSP 34x0G offers an Automatic
Switching (fall back) to the analog sound (FM/AM-
mono), without the necessity for the controller of reading
and evaluating any parameters. If a proper NICAM sig-
nal returns, switching back to this source is performed
automatically as well. The feature evaluates the NICAM
ERROR_RATE and switches, if necessary, all output
channels which are assigned to the NICAM-source, to
the analog source, and vice versa.
An appropriate hysteresis algorithm avoids oscillating
effects (see Fig. 6–1). STATUS[9] and C_AD_BITS[11]

6.3.1.1. Function in Automatic Sound Select Mode
The Automatic Sound Select feature (MODUS[0]=1)
includes the procedure mentioned above. By default, the
internal ERROR_RATE threshold is set to 700
– NICAM
– analog Sound
The ERROR_RATE value of 700 corresponds to a
BER of approximately 5.46*10
Individual configuration of the threshold can be done
using Table 6–5. However, the internal setting used by
the standard selection is recommended.
The optimum NICAM sound can be assigned to the
MSP output channels by selecting one of the “Stereo
or A/B”, “Stereo or A”, or “Stereo or B” source chan-
nels
6.3.1.2. Function in Manual Mode
If the manual mode (MODUS[0]=0) is required, the
activation and configuration of the Automatic Switching
feature has to be done as described in Table 6–6. Note
that the channel matrix of the corresponding out-
put-channels
