Using the Radio Data System (RDS) (continued)
■Notes for RDS operation
If any of the following events occur, it does not mean that the unit is faulty:
●“PS”, “NO PS” and a station name appear alternately, and the unit does not operate properly.
●If a particular station is not broadcasting properly or a station is conducting tests, the RDS reception function may not work properly.
●When you receive an RDS station whose signal is too weak, information like the station name may not be displayed.
●“NO PS”, “NO PTY” or “NO RT” will be displayed for few seconds, and then the frequency will be displayed.
Notes for radio text:
●The first 8 characters of the radio text will appear for 4 seconds and then they will scroll across the display.
●If you tune in to an RDS station which is not broadcasting any radio text, “NO RT” will be displayed when you switch to the radio text position.
●Whilst radio text data is received or when the text contents change, “RT” will be displayed.
