RDS allows FM stations to send an additional signal along with their regular program signals. For example, the stations send their station names, as well as information about what type of program they broadcast, such as sports or music, etc.
When tuned to an FM station which provides the RDS service, the RDS indicator lights up on the display.
About characters shown on the display
When the display shows PS, PTY, or RT signals, the following characters are used.
•The display cannot differentiate upper case and lower case letters and always uses upper case letters.
•The display cannot show accented letters, “A,” for instance, may stand for accented “A’s” like “Å, Ä, Ã, Á, À, Â, å, ä, ã, á, à, and
â.”
Note:
If searching finishes at once, “PS,” “PTY,” and “RT” will not appear on
the display.
