Receiving FM Stations with RDS

Continued

RDS (Radio Data System) allows FM stations to send an additional signal along with their regular program signals. For example, the stations send their station names, as well as information about what type of program they broadcast, such as sports or music, etc. When tuning in to an FM station which provides the RDS service, the RDS indicator lights up on the display.

With the unit, you can receive the following types of RDS signals.

PS (Program Service):

Shows commonly known station names.

PTY (Program Type):

Shows types of broadcast programs.

RT (Radio Text):

Shows text messages the station sends.

Enhanced Other Networks:

Provides the information about the types of the programs sent by other RDS stations.

More about RDS

• Some FM stations do not provide RDS signals.

• RDS services vary among FM RDS stations. For details on RDS services in your area, check with local radio stations.

• RDS may not work correctly if the received station is not transmitting the signals properly or if the signal strength is weak.

Searching for Programs by PTY Codes (PTY Search)

One of the advantages of RDS is that you can locate a particular kind of program by specifying the PTY codes.

• For details on the PTY codes, see “Additional Information” on page 31.

To search for a program using the PTY codes

REMEMBER you must preset FM RDS stations to use the PTY codes. If not yet done, see page 13.

• There is a time limit in doing the following steps. If the setting is canceled before you finish, start from step 1 again.

On the remote control ONLY:

Press PTY SEARCH.

“PTY SELECT” appears on the display.

Press PTY SELECT + or PTY SELECT – until the PTY code you want appears on the display.

The unit continues tuning in to the current station.

When a station starts broadcasting the program you have selected, the unit automatically switches to the station. The indicator of selected PTY code starts flashing.

When the program is over, the unit goes back to the previously tuned station, but the function still remains activated.

CASE 2

If there is a station broadcasting the program you have selected

The unit tunes in to the program. The indicator of selected PTY code starts flashing.

When the program is over, the unit goes back to the previously tuned station, but the function still remains activated.

CASE 3

TA: Traffic announcement NEWS:News INFO: Program the purpose of which is to impart

advice in the widest sense.

OFF: The function is canceled. The data type indicator

(TA, NEWS, INFO) goes off.

Wait for about 5 seconds after specifying the data type.

The data type goes off from the display, and the selected data type indicator remains lit. Now, the function is activated. See “How the Enhanced Other Networks function actually works.”

If the FM station you are listening to is broadcasting the program you have selected

The unit continues to receive the station but the indicator of selected PTY code starts flashing.

When the program is over, the indicator of selected PTY code stops flashing and remains lit, but the function still remains activated.

More about the Enhanced Other Networks function

• The data sent from some stations may not be compatible with this unit. In this case, the function may not work correctly.

• While listening to a program tuned in by the function, the station does not change even if another network station starts broadcasting a program of the same data.

• The function is canceled when you change the source to CD, TAPE, or AUX, while it is temporarily canceled when you change the source to AM (MW/LW).

• This function is also canceled when you turn off the unit.

Disc Play Introduction

Continued

This unit has been designed to play back the following discs:

• CD (Audio CD)

• CD-R (CD-Recordable)

• CD-RW (CD-ReWritable)

• MP3 disc (MP3 files recorded on a CD-R or CD-RW)

When playing a CD-R or CD-RW

User-edited CD-Rs (CD-Recordable) and CD-RWs (CD-ReWritable) can be played back only if they are already “finalized.”

• You can play back your original CD-Rs or CD-RWs recorded in music CD format or in MP3 format. (However, they may not be played back depending on their characteristics or recording conditions.)

• Before playing back CD-Rs or CD-RWs, read their instructions or cautions carefully.

• Some CD-Rs or CD-RWs may not be played back on this unit because of their disc characteristics, damage or stain on them, or if the player’s lens is dirty.

• CD-RWs may require a longer readout time. This is caused by the fact that the reflectance of CD-RWs is lower than for regular discs.

About the CD ready lamps

Each CD ready lamp corresponds to the disc tray of the same number.

• When and why they light up?

– When you turn on the unit for the first time after

plugging into a wall outlet, all CD ready lamps (CD1 READY, CD2 READY, and CD3 READY) light up. From the next time on, CD ready lamp(s) light(s) up according to the previous condition.

– Each time you press the disc tray open/close buttons

—0 (CD1, CD2, and CD3), the corresponding CD ready lamp lights up.

• When and why they go off?

Only when the unit detects there is no disc loaded on a certain tray, the corresponding CD ready lamp goes off. (“NO DISC 1,” “NO DISC 2,” or “NO DISC 3” appears on the display.)

MP3 Introduction

What is MP3?

MP3 is an abbreviation of Motion Picture Experts Group 1 (or MPEG-1) Audio Layer 3. MP3 is simply a file format with a data compression ratio of 1:10 (128 kbps*). By using MP3 format, one CD-R or CD-RW can contains 10 times as much data volume as a regular CD can.

* Bit rate is the average number of bits that one second of audio

data will consume. The unit uses kbps (1,000 bits per second). To get a better audio quality, choose a higher bit rate. The most popular bit rate for encoding (recording) is 128 kbps.

MP3 disc structure

On an MP3 disc, each song (material) is recorded as a file. Files are grouped into a directory (or folder). Directories can also include other directories, creating hierarchical directory layers. (See “How are MP3 files recorded and played back?” on page 17.)

This unit manages files and directories as “tracks” and “groups.” This unit can recognize up to 255 tracks per disc, up to 64 groups per disc. The unit ignores those exceeding the maximum numbers and cannot play them back.

About MP3 discs

• MP3 discs (either CD-R or CD-RW) require a longer readout time. (It varies due to the complexity of the recording configuration.)

• When making an MP3 disc, select ISO 9660 Level 1 or Level 2 as the disc format.

• This unit does not support multisession recording.

• This unit can play MP3 files only with the following file extensions— “.MP3,” “.Mp3,” “.mP3,” and “.mp3.”

• Files other than MP3 are ignored.

• Some MP3 discs may not be played back because of their disc characteristics or recording conditions.

• When and why they flash?

The corresponding CD ready lamp flashes during playback and pause.

If the loaded disc is an MP3 disc

The corresponding CD ready lamp and the MP3 indicator will light up.

How are MP3 files recorded and played back?

Root

Hierarchy

Groups

MP3 tracks

MP3 “tracks (files)” can be recorded in “group”—folders or directories, in PC terminology. During recording, the tracks and groups can be arranged similarly to the tracks and folders/directories of computer data. “Root” is similar to the root of a tree. Every track and group can be linked to the root. In compliance with ISO 9660, the maximum allowable depth of nested directories—so called “hierarchy”—is eight (inclusive of the root).

Playback order, track search order, and group search order of the MP3 tracks recorded on a disc are determined by the writing (or encoding) application; therefore, playback order may be different from the one you have intended while recording the groups and the tracks.

The illustration shows an ordinary example of how MP3 tracks are recorded on a CD-R or CD-RW, how they are played back and how they are searched for on this unit.

• The numbers in circles next to the MP3 tracks ( ) indicate the playback order and search order of the MP3 tracks. Normally this unit plays back MP3 tracks in the recorded order.

• The numbers inside the groups indicate the playback order and search order of the groups on an MP3 disc. Normally this unit plays back MP3 tracks in the groups in the recorded order. The groups marked with asterisk (*) will be skipped since they do not include any MP3 tracks.

AANSLUITINGEN

• Gebruik GEEN andere versterker dan de CA-HXZ3R om dit luidsprekersysteem aan te sturen.

• Schakel de spanning van alle aangesloten komponenten uit alvorens de luidsprekers met de versterker te verbinden.

• Het maximale vermogen van de SP-HXZ3 hoofdluidspreker is 70 W en van de subwoofer 160 W. Te hoge ingang kan in abnormale geluidsreproduktie en in beschadigingen resulteren.

Overbelasting en verbranding van de bedrading kan worden veroorzaakt, wanneer de hieronder beschreven signalen naar de luidspekers worden gevoed, zelfs wanneer de signalen onder het maximaal toegestane ingangsvermogen zijn. Verminder eerst het volume van de versterker.

1) Ruis, zoals dit optreedtijdens afstemming op een FM-zender.

2) Hoogfrekwentie signalen van een hoog niveau, zoals die tijdens het vooruitspoelen van een tapedeck worden geproduceerd.

3) Klikkende geluiden, die worden veroorzaakt door het in - en uitschakelen van de netspanning van andere komponenten.

4) Klikkende geluiden, zoals die worden geproduceerd bij het tot stand brengen of verbreken van aansluitingen terwijl de netspanning is ingeschakeld.

5) Klikkende geluiden, zoals die optreden bij het vervangen van het element van een draaitafel terwijl de netspanning is ingeschakeld.

6) Klikkende geluiden, zoals die worden geproduceerd door bediening van de schakelaars van de versterker.

7) Voortdurende hoogfrekwentie-oscillatie, of hoogtonige, elektronisch geproduceerde geluiden van muziekinstrumenten.

8) Rondzingend geluid bij gebruik van mikrofoons.

ANSLUTNING

• Använd INTE någon annan förstärkare än CA-HXZ3R till att driva detta högtalarsystem med.

• Slå av strömmen i alla apparater i ljudanläggningen innan högtalarna ansluts till förstärkaren.

• Maximal effekthanteringskapacitet för SP-HXZ3 är 70 W för huvudhögtalare/160 W för lågbashîgtalare. Brus uppstår i ljudet och högtalarna kan skadas om de matas med för hög effekt. I situationerna som beskrivs nedan kan högtalarna också överbelastas och kabeltråden inne i hägtalarna brännas sönder, fastän högtalarnas effekt inte har överskridits.

Sänk därför ljudstyrkan på förhand.

1) Brus under inställning av FM-radiostationer.

2) Starka, högfrekventa signaler från ett kassettdäck under snabbspolning framåt.

3) Ljudbangar som uppstår när andra apparater i anläggningen slås till och från.

4) Skrapljud som uppstår när anslutningskablar ansluts eller kopplas från medan strömmen är på.

5) Skrapljud som uppstår när pickupelementet på en skivspelare byts medan strömmen är på.

6) Ljudbangar som uppstår när du använder förstärkarens omkopplare.

7) Kontinuerliga, högfrekvenssvängningar eller högfrekvent ljud från elektroniska musikinstrument.

8) Akustisk återkoppling (tjutande ljud) vid bruk av mikrofoner.

OBSERVERA!

Dra eller skjut inte högtalarna över ett golv eller ett bord. Om så görs finns det risk för att de fyra fotkuddarna som sitter på undersidan av varje högtalare lossnar.

CAUTELA

Non trascinare o spingere i diffusori sul pavimento o sul tavolo. Altrimenti i quattro piedini sul fondo di ciascun diffusore possono

staccarsi o cadere dal diffusore.

TILSLUTNING

VICTOR COMPANY OF JAPAN, LIMITED

• Anvend IKKE anden forstærker end CA-HXZ3R til drift af dette højttalersystem.

• Sluk for strømmen til hele systemet før højttalerne forbindes til forstærkeren.

• Den maksimale belastningskapacitet for SP-HXZ3 hovedhøjttaleren er 70 W/for subwooferen 160 W.

For kraftigt indgangssignal vil resultere i unormal stoj og muligvis beskadigelse.

I tilfælde hvor højttalerne udsættes for signalerne beskrevet nedenfor, kan der forekomme overbelastning og overbrænding af ledningerne i höjttalerne selv om signalstyrken er under den maksimale tilladte værdi. Husk derfor at at sænke højttalerlydstyrken i forvejen.

1) Støj under FM-afstemning.

2) Signaler med høje niveauer der indeholder höjfrekvente komponenter dannet af en båndoptager der er indstillet til hurtig fremspoling.

3) Klikstøj dannet når der tændes eller slukkes for strommen til andre domponenter.

4) Klikstøj der dannes når ledninger tilsluttes eller tages ud af forbindelse mens der er tændt for strømmen.

5) Klikstøj der dannes når pickuppen udskiftes mens der er tændt for strømmen.

6) Klikstøj der dannes når forstærkerens omskiftere betjenes.

7) Fortsat høj frekvenssvingning, eller en højlyd dannet af et elektronisk instrument.

8) Hyletoner når der anvendes en mikrofon.

FORSIGTIG

Træk eller skub ikke højttalerne hen over gulvet eller på et bord. Ellers kan de fire fødder på undersiden af hver højttaler bliver revet af eller falde af højttaleren.

LIITÄNTÄ

•ÄLÄ käytä muuta vahvistinta tämän kaiutinjärjestelmän käyttöön paitsi mallille CA-HXZ3R.

• Katkaise koko järjestelmän virta ennen kuin suoritat liitännät kaiuttimista vahvistimeen.

• Mallin SP-HXZ3 pääkaiuttimen enimmäisteho on 70 W, apubassokaiuttimen 160 W. Liiallinen antoteho aiheuttaa epänormaalia kohinaa ja jopa vahinkoa.

Tapauksissa, missä kaiuttimet joutuvat alla kuvattujen signaalien kohteeksi, vaikka signaalit olisivat alle sallitun maksimi antotehon, ne saattavat aiheuttaa ylikuormitusta ja polttaa kaiuttimien johdot.

Vähennä siis vahvistimen äänenvoimakkuutta jo ennalta.

1) Kohinaa FM-virityksen aikana.

2) Kasettidekistä eteenpäinkelauksen aikana muodostuneet vahvat, korkeataajuuksisia komponentteja sisältävät signaalit.

3) Klik-ääni, joka syntyy silloin kun toisten osien virta kytketään ja katkaistaan.

4) Klik-ääni, joka syntyy silloin kun kytketään tai irrotetaan johtoja virran ollessa päällä.

5) Klik-ääni, joka syntyy silloin kun vaihdetaan hylsy virran ollessa päällä.

6) Klik-ääni, joka syntyy silloin kun käytetään vahvistimen kytkimiä.

7) Jatkuva korkea värähtely tai elektronisesti tuotettu korkea soittimen ääni.

8) Ulinaa mikrofonia käytettäessä.

HUOMAUTUS

Älä vedä tai työnnä kaiuttimia lattialla tai pöydällä. Muuten kunkin kaiuttimen pohjassa olevat neljä jalkaa saattavat irrota kaiuttimista.
