Using Standby Reception
Standby Reception allows the unit to switch temporarily to your favorite program (PTY: Program TYpe) and Traffic Announcement (TA) from the current source (another FM RDS station, CD, and other connected components).
Note:
Standby Reception will not work if you are listening to an AM station.
TA Standby Reception
Press TP/RDS briefly to activate TA Standby Reception.
The TP indicator either lights up or flashes on the display. (See below)
•If you press the button while listening to an FM RDS station supporting TA signal, the TP indicator lights up. This receiver now stands by for the TA signal reception.
•If you press the button while listening to an FM RDS station NOT supporting TA signal, the TP indicator flashes.
In this case, this receiver cannot stand by for TA signal reception.
To use TA Standby Reception, tune into a station supporting TA signal by pressing ¢ or 4 . “SEARCH” (or “LOCAL SEARCH”: see page 6) appears on the display, and the unit searches for a station supporting TA signal.When a station supporting the signal is tuned in, the TP indicator is lit. NOW this receiver stands by for the TA signal reception.
•If you press the button while listening to any other source than AM;
This unit starts searching for an FM station supporting TA signal in the background — without affecting your listening to the source currently selected. (During this background search, the TP indicator flashes.)
– The TP indicator stops flashing and remains lit when an FM station supporting TA signal is tuned in the background.This receiver now stands by for the TA signal reception.
– The TP indicator keeps flashing when an FM station supporting TA signal is NOT tuned in the background. In this case, this receiver cannot stand by for TA signal reception.
How TA Standby Reception works:
If a Traffic Announcement starts broadcasting while TA Standby Reception is activated (the TP indicator should be lit on the display), “TRAFFIC” appears and the unit tunes into the station broadcasting Traffic Announcement. The volume increases to the preset TA volume level (see page 17) and the Traffic Announcement can be heard.
To deactivate TA Standby Reception, press TP/RDS briefly again. Each time you press the button, TA Standby Reception turns on and off.
