RDS

Introduction of RDS operation

RDS (radio data system) is a system for provid-
ing information along with FM broadcasts.
! RDS service may not be provided by all sta-
tions.
! RDS functions such as AF and TA are only
active when your radio is tuned to an RDS
station.

service name is displayed. Switch the display

% Press EQ and hold until the display

tween the following settings:

rent station appears on the display for eight sec-
onds.

Receiving PTY alarm broadcasts

PTY alarm is a special PTY code for announce-
ments regarding emergencies such as natural
disasters. When the tuner receives the radio
alarm code, ALARM appears on the display
and the volume adjusts to the TA volume.
When the station stops broadcasting the
emergency announcement, the system re-
turns to the previous source.
! An emergency announcement can be can-
celed by pressing TA.

Selecting alternative frequencies

If you are listening to a broadcast and the re-
ception becomes weak or there are other pro-
blems, the unit will automatically search for a
different station in the same network which is
broadcasting a stronger signal.
! The default setting for AF is off.
% Press TA and hold repeatedly to turn AF
on or off.
When AF is on, AF appears in the display.
Notes
! AF should be off for normal tuning operation.
! Only RDS stations are tuned in during seek
tuning or BSM when AF is on.
! When you recall a preset station, the tuner
may update the preset station with a new fre-
quency from the stations AF list. (This is only
available when using presets on the F1 band.)
! Sound may be temporarily interrupted by an-
other program during an AF frequency
search.
! When the tuner is tuned to a non-RDS station
the AF indicator flashes.
