To enable this function, using the front panel navigational menu, go to Settings > Security > Front Panel, then press OK and ENABLE the Access Control function. Set the preferred 4 digit password and access timeout.
Once the keyboard lock function is enabled, every attempt to use it will require a password: ENTER PASSWORD:0***. Access will be denied upon false entry.

If the “Keyboard unlock” function has been activated by mistake, try to unlock it using the default password 01234. In order to deactivate the code protection, once the front panel menu is unlocked follow the menu path Menu > Settings > Security > Front Panel > Access control and then select Disable.
If you do not manage to unlock the front panel with the default password, nevertheless whether it has been changed intentionally or not, the unit should be returned to its factory defaults in order for the password security to be disabled.
DB9009-RX How to: How can the decoder be used as an IP Audio client?
One of the following conditions should be fulfilled, prior any adjustments are applied: • A DB9000-TX/DB9009-TX/DB90-TX/DB91-TX or other encoder with static IP Address and properly configured Stream Server could be used. • An online radio could be used.
Once one of the above cited conditions is implemented, the following settings should be applied, via the WEB Interface: • Go to Configuration > IP Audio; • In IP Audio Client section - URL of the Server should be specified. The URL is a mandatory requisite needed in order for a connection with the server to be established. The URL could be compounded of a domain name or IP Address, Server Port, and path (optional), ex. radio.myserver.com:5000/live or 192.168.120:5000; • Choose the preferred decoder, prebuffer and specify buffer timeout. If needed set new gain adjustment settings; • From the Source priority Section set the priority of the IP Audio Client.
DB9009-RX How to: How can the decoder be used as an Icecast Source Server?
Prior to implementing the below written adjustments, the following conditions should be fulfilled:
- The DB9000-RX/DB90-RX/DB91-RX should have a static IP Address. If the device is placed behind a router, you will have to make sure that the Icecast Player server port is properly NAT forwarded;
- On the other side, of the connection, there should be a DB9000-TX/DB9009-TX/DB90-TX/DB91-TX set as Icecast Source Client or other Icecast Source Client.
Once the above cited conditions are implemented, the following settings should be applied, via the WEB Interface
- Go to Settings > IP Audio;
- Icecast Audio Player Section - Specify the audio player port, username, password and decoder to be used;
- From the Source Priority section set the priority of the Icecast Audio Player.
DB9009-RX How to: How can the decoder be used as an RTP Receiver?
Prior to implementing the below written adjustments, the following conditions should be fulfilled:
- The DB9000-RX/DB90-RX/DB91-RX should have a static IP Address. If the device is placed behind a router, you will have to make sure that the player port is properly NAT forwarded;
- On the other side, of the connection, there should be a DB9000-TX/DB9009-TX/DB90-TX/DB91-TX or other encoder set as an RTP Sender.
Once the above cited conditions are implemented, the following settings should be applied, via the WEB Interface:
- Go to Configuration > IP Audio;
- RTP Audio Player section - Specify the audio player port and decoder to be used;
- From the Source Priority section set the priority of the RTP Audio Player.
DB9009-RX How to: What should be the buffer level? How can I apply the needed settings?
The Buffer is used to supply an audio at the output when disconnection or a problem with the connection is present. The higher the buffer level is the longer the protection time will be. Though, the audio delay will be increased. The level at which the buffer will be set depends on your preferences and expected results as it comes to the quality of the connection. If a connection loss is not expected, the buffer level could be decreased. If the connection is unstable (such as 3G Network), we recommend a higher buffer level to be set.
The buffer level is set in bytes, thus, the audio delay depends on the bit-rate of the audio stream. For example - audio with higher bit-rate will have a lower delay compared to audio with the lowest bit-rate at the same level of the buffer.
The buffer level is the received amount of audio data at which the RX will start playing the audio. In the DB90/DB91/DB9009/9000-TX settings should be set the pre-buffering level, which is the initial amount of data that is sent to the RX in order for the buffer to be filled rapidly i.e. the connection to be built quickly. We recommend the same values to both units to be set.
All needed settings are applied via the WEB Interface. • For DB90/DB91/DB9009/9000-RX go to Settings > IP Audio > IP Audio Client subsection and set the pre-buffer level; • For DB90/DB91/DB9009/9000-TX go to Settings > IP Audio > Stream Settings subsection and select the pre-buffer level from the drop-down menu.
