What you can do with RDS

 

 

RDS (Radio Data System) allows FM

 

stations to send an additional signal along

 

with their regular programme signals.

 

By receiving the RDS data, this receiver can

 

do the following:

 

• Programme Type (PTY) Search (see page 11)

 

• Standby Reception of Traffic

 

Announcement—TA (see the following) or

 

your favorite programme (PTY) (see pages

 

13 and 23)

 

• Tracing the same programme automatically

 

—Network-Tracking Reception (see page 13)

 

• Programme Search (see page 23)

Storing your favorite programmes

You can store six favorite programme types.

Preset programme types in the number buttons (1 to 6):

1 Select a PTY code (see page 11).

2 Select the preset number (1 – 6) you want to store into.

3Repeat steps 1 and 2 to store other PTY codes into other preset numbers.

4Finish the procedure.

Using the standby receptions

TA Standby Reception

TA Standby Reception allows the receiver to switch temporarily to Traffic Announcement (TA) from any source other than AM.

The volume changes to the preset TA volume level (see page 23).

To activate TA Standby Reception

The TP indicator either lights up or flashes.

If the TP indicator lights up, TA Standby Reception is activated.

If the TP indicator flashes, TA Standby Reception is not yet activated. (This occurs when you are listening to an FM station without the RDS signals required for TA Standby Reception.)

To activate TA Standby Reception, tune in to another station providing these signals. The TP indicator will stop flashing and remain lit.

To deactivate the TA Standby Reception

The TP indicator goes off.

Ex.: When “ROCK M” is selected
