Using RDS Functions

What is RDS?

RDS (Radio Data System) is a system for transmitting data along with FM programs. This data, which is inaudible, provides a variety of features such as: program service name, pro- gram type display, traffic announcement standby, automatic tuning and program type tun- ing, intended to aid radio listeners in tuning to a desired station.

Note:

RDS service may not be provided by all stations.

RDS functions, like AF (Alternative frequencies search) and TA (Traffic Announcement standby), are only active when your radio is tuned to RDS stations.

Program Service Name Display

With this function, the names of networks/stations providing RDS services replace the fre- quency on the display a few seconds after they are tuned in.

When you want to know PTY Information or the frequency of the current station, change the display.

Hold for 2 seconds

Each press of the EQ button for 2 seconds selects the display in the following order: Program Service Name = PTY Information = Frequency

Note:

After switching displays, if you do not perform an operation within 8 seconds, the Program Service Name is automatically displayed.

7PTY Information

PTY (Program Type ID code) information for the currently tuned station appears on the display for 8 seconds. The information is correlated with the list in the section “PTY Function” on page 14.

Note:

If a PTY code of zero is received from a station, “NONE” will be displayed. This indicates that the station has not defined its program contents.

If the signal is too weak for this product to pick up the PTY code, “NO PTY” will be displayed.

7Frequency

The frequency of the current station appears on the display.
