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
ENGLISH
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 favorite programme or traffic announcement while listening to another programme or to another source such as tape.
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 favorite 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. (See the illustration on page 16.) 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, Network­Tracking Reception will not operate.
To use Network-Tracking Reception
You can select the different modes of network­tracking 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.

Press and hold SEL (select) for more than 2 seconds so that one of the PSM items appears on the display. (PSM: see page 23.)
Using TA Standby Reception
TA Standby Reception allows the unit to switch temporarily to Traffic Announcement (TA) from the current source (another FM station, tape, or other connected components).
• TA Standby Reception will not work if you are listening to an AM station.
ENGLISH
2
Select “AF-REG” (alternative frequency/regionalization reception) if not shown on the display.
3
Select the desired mode—“AF,” “AF REG,” or “OFF.”
4
Finish the setting.
Press TP/PTY to activate TA Standby Reception.
7 When the current source is FM, the TP
indicator either lights up or flashes.
• If the TP indicator lights up, TA Standby
Reception is activated. If a station starts broadcasting a traffic announcement, “TRAFFIC” appears on the display, and this unit automatically tunes in to the station. The volume changes to the preset TA volume level (see page 15) and the traffic announcement can be heard.
• If the TP indicator flashes, TA Standby
Reception is not yet activated since the station being received does not provide the signals used for TA Standby Reception. To activate TA Standby Reception, you need to tune in to another station providing these signals. Press ¢ or 4 to search for such a station. When a station providing these signals is tuned in, the TP indicator stops flashing and remains lit. Now TA Standby Reception is activated.
7 When the current source is other than FM,
the TP indicator lights up. If a station starts broadcasting a traffic announcement, “TRAFFIC” appears on the display, and this unit automatically changes the source and tunes in to the station.
To deactivate the TA Standby Reception,
press TP/PTY again. The TP indicator disappears.
11
Using PTY Standby Reception
PTY Standby Reception allows the unit to switch temporarily to your favorite programme (PTY: Programme Type) from the current source
ENGLISH
(another FM station, tape, or other connected components).
4
Finish the setting.
PTY Standby Reception will not work if you are listening to an AM station.
You can select your favorite programme type for PTY Standby Reception. When shipped from the factory, PTY Standby Reception is turned off. (“OFF” is selected for PTY Standby Reception.)
1
Press and hold SEL (select) for more than 2 seconds so that one of the PSM items appears on the display. (PSM: see page 23.)
2
Select “PTY STBY” (standby) if not shown on the display.
3
Select one of the twenty-nine PTY codes. (See page 16.)
Selected code name appears on the display and is stored into memory.
7 When the current source is FM, the PTY
indicator either lights up or flashes.
If the PTY indicator lights up, PTY Standby Reception is activated. If a station starts broadcasting the selected PTY programme, this unit automatically tunes in to the station.
If the PTY indicator flashes, PTY Standby Reception is not yet activated since the station being received does not provide the signals used for PTY Standby Reception. To activate PTY Standby Reception, you need to tune in to another station providing these signals. Press ¢ or 4 to search for such a station. When a station providing these signals is tuned in, the PTY indicator stops flashing and remains lit. Now PTY Standby Reception is activated.
7 When the current source is other than FM,
the PTY indicator lights up. If a station starts broadcasting the selected PTY programme, this unit automatically changes the source and tunes in to the station.
To deactivate the PTY Standby Reception,
select OFF in step 3 on the left column. The PTY indicator disappears.
