RDS OPERATIONS

What you can do with RDS

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
"Enhanced Other Networks." By using the
Enhanced Other Networks data sent from a
station, you can tune in to a different station of a
different network broadcasting your favourite
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 favourite programme
• PTY (Programme Type) search
• 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
tunes in to 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.
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.

To use Network-Tracking Reception
You can select the different modes of network-
tracking reception to continue listening to the
same programme in its finest reception.
When shipped from the factory, "AF" is selected.
• AF:
Network-Tracking Reception is activated with
Regionalization set to "off."
With this setting, the unit switches to another
station within the same network when the
receiving signals from the current station
become weak. (In this mode, the programme
may differ from the one currently received.)
The AF indicator lights up but the REG indicator
does not.
• AF Reg:
Network-Tracking Reception is activated with
Regionalization set to "on."
With this setting, the unit switches to another
station, within the same network, broadcasting
the same programme when the receiving
signals from the current station become weak.
Both the AF indicator and the REG indicator
light up.
• Off:
Network-Tracking Reception is deactivated.
Neither the AF indicator nor the REG indicator
lights up.
