RDS OPERATIONS
What you can do with RDS EON
RDS (Radio Data System) allows FM stations to send an additional signal along with their
regular programme signals. For example, the station send their station names, as well as
ENGLISH
information about what type of programme they broadcast, such as sports or music, etc.
Another advantage of RDS function is called “EON (Enhanced Other Networks).” The EON
indicator lights up while receiving an FM station with the EON data. By using the EON data
sent from a station, you can tune into 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
• TP (Traffic Programme) search
• And some other functions
Tracing the same programme automatically (NetworkTracking Reception)
When driving in an area where FM reception is not good, the tuner built in this unit automatically
tune in 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 y ou
drive. (See the illustration on the next page.)
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, Networ kTracking Reception will not operate.
T o use Netw ork-Tracking Reception, press and hold TP/RDS
(T raffic Progr amme/Radio Data System) for more than 1 second.
Each time you press and hold the button, Network-Tracking
Reception modes change as follows:
RDS
TP
Mode 1 Mode 2 Mode 3

Mode 1
The AF indicator lights up but the REG indicator does not.
Network-Tracking is activated with Regionalization set to “off.”
Switches to another station within the same network when the receiving
signals from the current station become weak.
Note:
In this mode, the programme may differ fr om the one currently received.
Mode 2
Both the AF indicator and the REG indicator light up.
Network-Tracking is activated with Regionalization set to “on.”
Switches to another station, within the same network, broadcasting the same
programme when the receiving signals from the current station become weak.
Mode 3
Neither the AF indicator nor the REG indicator lights up.
Network-Tracking is deactivated.
