RDS Operations

English

RDS (Radio Data System)

This unit has a built-in RDS decoder system that supports broadcast stations transmitting RDS data.

This system can display the name of the broadcast station being received (PS) and can automatically switch to the broadcast station with the best reception as you move long distances (AF switching).

Also, if a traffic announcement or programme type is broadcast from an RDS station, no matter what mode you are in, this broadcast is received.

Additionally, if EON information is received, this information enables automatic switching of other preset stations on the same network and interruption of the station being received with traffic information from other stations (TP). This function is not available in some areas.

When using the RDS function, always set the radio to FM mode.

• AF : Alternative Frequency

• PS : Programme Service Name

• PTY : Programme Type

• EON : Enhanced Other Network

• TP : Traffic Programme

∗ RDS interrupt does not function during AM radio

reception or in TV mode.

∗ When set receives RDS signal, and can read PS

data, PS appears in the display.

CD/MP3/WMA Operations

MP3/WMA

What is MP3?

MP3 is an audio compression method and classified into audio layer 3 of MPEG standards. This audio compression method has penetrated into PC users and become a standard format.

This MP3 features the original audio data compression to about 10 percent of its initial size with a high sound quality. This means that about 10 music CDs can be recorded on a CDR disc or CD-RW disc to allow a long listening time without having to change CDs.

What is WMA?

WMA is the abbreviation of Windows Media Audio, an audio file format developed by Microsoft Corporation.

Notes:

• If you play a file with DRM (Digital Rights Management) for WMA remaining ON, no audio is output. (The WMA indicator blinks.)

•Windows Media™, and the Windows ® logo are trademarks, or registered trademarks of Microsoft Corporation in the United States and/or other countries.

●To disable DRM (Digital Rights Management):

1. When using Windows Media Player 8, click

on TOOLS ➜ OPTIONS ➜ COPY MUSIC tab, then under COPY SETTINGS, unclick the check box for PROTECT CONTENT. Then, reconstruct files.

2. When using Windows Media Player 9, click
