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 stations 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 “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 signals, 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 tunes 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 you 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, NetworkTracking Reception will not operate.

ENGLISH

To use Network-Tracking Reception, press and hold TP/RDS (Traffic

RDS

Programme/Radio Data System) for more than 1 second. Each time you press and hold the button, Network-Tracking Reception modes change as follows:

Mode 1 Mode 2 Mode 3

AF indicator REG indicatior

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

ENGLISH

signals from the current station become weak.

Note:

In this mode, the programme may differ from 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.

The same programme can be received on different frequencies.

Programme 1 broadcasting on frequency A

Programme 1 broadcasting on frequency B

Programme 1 broadcasting on frequency E

Programme 1 broadcasting on frequency C

Programme 1 broadcasting on frequency D

Using Standby Reception

Standby Reception allows the unit to switch temporarily to your favorite programme (PTY: Programme Type) and Traffic Announcement (T A) from the current source (another FM station and TAPE (or CD Changer and other connected components for KS-FX650R)).

Note:

Standby Reception will not work if you are listening to an AM station.

TA Standby Reception

ENGLISH

• When you press TP/RDS while listening to an FM station, the TP indicator

RDS

is lit during reception of a TP (T r affic Programme) station and the T A standb y mode is engaged.

Note:

When the station being received is not a TP station, the TP indicator flashes. Press

¢ or 4 to engage the TA standby mode. “SEARCH” appears on the display, and TP station sear ch starts. When a TP station is tuned in, the TP indicator is lit.

• If you are listening to TAPE (or CD Changer for KS-FX650R), and wish to

listen to a TP station, press TP/RDS to enter the TA standby mode. (The TP indicator lights up.)

If a traffic programme starts broadcasting while the TA standby mode is active, “TRAFFIC” appears and the playback source changes to the FM band. The volume increases to the preset TA volume level and the traffic programme can be heard (see page 16).

To deactivate the TA standby mode, press TP/RDS again.

PTY Standby Reception

PTY

• When you press PTY while listening to an FM station, the PTY indicator is

Other convenient RDS functions and adjustments

Automatic selection of the station when using the number buttons

Usually when you press the number button, the preset station is tuned in. However, when the preset station is an RDS station, something different will happen. If the signals from that preset station are not sufficient for good reception, this unit, using the AF data, tunes in another frequency broadcasting the same programme as the original preset station is broadcasting. In case no other station is tuned in, y ou can also search all receivable frequencies for the same programme. (Programme search) To activate programme search, follow the procedure below.

• Programme search takes a while.

• See also “Changing the general settings” on page 26.

1.Press and hold SEL (select) for more than 2 seconds to call up the general setting mode.
