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 tuned 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 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.

Classification of the PTY codes for some FM stations may be different from the above list on this page.

Alarm function

If an “ALARM” (Emergency) signal is received from a station while listening to the radio, the unit automatically switches to the station broadcasting the “ALARM” signal, except when you are listening to non-RDS stations—all AM (MW) and some FM stations.

Test function

The “TEST” signal is used for testing the “ALARM” signal. Therefore, it makes the unit work in the same way as the “ALARM” signal does. If a “TEST” signal is received from a station while listening to the radio, the unit automatically switches to the station broadcasting the “TEST” signal, except when you are listening to non-RDS stations—all AM (MW) and some FM stations.
