Operation

RDS Operation - Optional

This unit is equipped with RDS (Radio Data System),

which brings a wide range of information to FM radio.

Now in use in many countries, RDS is a system for

transmitting station call signs or network information, a

description of station programme type text message

about the station or specifics of musical selection and

the correct time.

RDS TUNING

When a FM station is tuned in and it contains RDS

data, the unit will automatically display the station’s

call sign and the RDS indicator will light in the Display

Window as well as indicators for the RDS services

programme (PS), programme type recognition (PTY),

Radiotext (RT) and Clock Time (CT) if transmitted by

the station.

RDS DISPLAY OPTIONS

The RDS system is capable of transmitting a wide

variety of information in addition to the initial call sign

that appears when a station is first tuned. In normal

RDS operation the display will indicate the station

name, broadcast network or call letters. Pressing RDS

enables you to cycle through the various data types in

the sequence:

(PS

→ FREQUENCY → PTY → RT → CT)

• PS (Programme Service name)- The name of the

channel is shown in the Display Window.

• PTY (Programme type recognition)- The name of

the programme type is shown in the Display

Window.

• RT (Radiotext)- A “text” message contains special

information from the broadcast station. Note that

this message may scroll across the display to permit

message.

• CT (Time controlled by the channel)- Enables the

unit to receive the actual time and show it in the

Display Window.

Note:

Some RDS stations may not choose to include some

of these additional features. If the data required for

the selected mode is not being transmitted, the

Display Window will show a PTY NONE, RT NONE,

CT NONE, PS NONE message.

Programme Search (PTY)

A major benefit of RDS is its ability to encode

broadcasts with Programme Type (PTY) codes that

indicate the type of material being broadcast. The

following list shows the abbreviations used to indicate

each PTY along with an explanation of the PTY.

You may search for a specific Programme Type (PTY)

by following these steps:

1. Press TUNER/BAND to select FM mode.

2. Press PTY, the display will show the last PTY in

use.

3. Press PTY repeatedly to select a desired PTY.

4. When the PTY is selected, press TUN.(-/+).

The unit

will go into an automatic search mode. When a station is

tuned, the search will stop.
