RDS OPERATIONS

What you can do with RDS EON

RDS (Radio Data System) allows FM stations to send an additional signal along with their regular programme signals. For example, the stations send their station names, as well as information about what type of programme they broadcast, such as sports or music, etc.

Another advantage of RDS function is called “EON (Enhanced Other Networks).” The EON indicator lights up while receiving an FM station with the EON data. By using the EON data sent from a station, you can tune into a different station of a different network broadcasting your favorite programme or traffic announcement while listening to another programme or to another source such as CD.

By receiving the RDS data, this unit can do the following:

Tracing the same programme automatically (Network-Tracking Reception)

Standby Reception of TA (Traffic Announcement) or your favorite programme

PTY (Programme Type) search

TP (Traffic Programme) search

And some other functions

Tracing the same programme automatically (Network- Tracking Reception)

When driving in an area where FM reception is not good, the tuner built in this unit automatically tune in another RDS station, broadcasting the same programme with stronger signals. So, you can continue to listen to the same programme in its finest reception, no matter where you drive. (See the illustration on the next page.)

Two types of the RDS data are used to make Network-Tracking Reception work correctly — PI (Programme Identification) and AF (Alternative Frequency).

Without receiving these data correctly from the RDS station you are listening to, Network- Tracking Reception will not operate.
