Searching for Programmes by PTY codes ————————
One of the advantages of the RDS service is that you can locate a particular kind of programme by specifying the PTY codes.
The PTY Search function is applicable to preset stations only.
To search for a programme using the PTY codes, follow this procedure:
1.Press PTY/EON once.
• When using the Remote Control, press 3 PTY/EON after pressing RDS CONTROL. “PTY” and “SELECT” appear alternately on the display.
Note: If no adjustments are made for 10 seconds in PTY Select mode, the display reverts to the previous display. Perform the next step while “PTY” and “SELECT” are being displayed.
2.Press SELECT + or SELECT – to select a PTY.
• When using the Remote Control, press 8 SELECT – or 9 SELECT +.
Each time you press the button, PTY codes change as follows:
SELECT + =
ï NEWS ï AFFAIRS ï INFO ï SPORT ï EDUCATE ï DRAMA ï CULTURE ï SCIENCE ï VARIED ï POP M ï ROCK M ï M.O.R. M ï LIGHT M ï CLASSICS ï OTHER M ï WEATHER ï FINANCE ï CHILDREN ï SOCIAL A ï RELIGION ï PHONE IN ï TRAVEL ï LEISURE ï JAZZ ï COUNTRY ï NATIONAL ï OLDIES ï FOLK M ï DOCUMENT ï TRAFFIC ï

3.Press PTY/EON again.
• When using the Remote Control, press 3 PTY/EON.
While the search function is running, the selected programme type and “SEARCH” alternate on the display.
Once the station which is broadcasting the selected PTY (Programme Type) is located, searching will stop. Then the station name (if PS code is being sent) will be indicated and the broadcast will commence. The indication will stay flashing for 10 seconds from the end of the searching function. If you press PTY/EON again during this period, search for the same PTY (Programme Type) will restart.
If a station broadcasting a selected PTY( Program Type) cannot be found, “NOTFOUND” appears on the display after the Unit has searched through the preset numbers. The Unit will return to the station to which it was tuned prior to the start of the PTY Search.
To cancel a PTY Search operation, press PTY/EON . (When using the Remote Control, press 3 PTY/EON.)
EON Function ———————————————————————
With the EON (Enhanced Other Networks) code, the Unit can perform a standby reception which will enable you to obtain desired information which is available from other stations.
“EON” will be shown while receiving stations with an EON code. EON Standby reception is applicable for preset stations only.
You can set EON Standby reception regardless of types of receiving bands.
