Radio Data System (RDS)

RDS Basics

Some FM stations are broadcasting added data compatible with RDS. This unit offers convenient functions using such data.
RDS service availability varies with areas. Please understand if RDS service is not available in your area, the following serv­ice is not available, either. This chapter explains the summary and operation regarding RDS.
The following functions are available when receiving RDS stations.

Programme Service Name (PS)
Display

The name of the station is displayed.

Alternative Frequency (AF)

When reception is poor, an RDS station broadcasting the
same programme is tuned in automatically.

Traffic Programme (TP)

Some RDS FM stations periodically provide a traffic
announcement.
Stations which broadcast the traffic announcement are
called Traffic Programme (TP).

Traffic Announcement (TA)

Radio announcements on traffic conditions.

Clock Time (CT) Service

When receiving an RDS station, the CT service automatical­ly adjusts the time.
“

NO CT

”

is displayed in areas where CT service is not avail-

able. (a Page 11 for Clock Setting)

Programme Type (PTY) Display

RDS FM stations provide a programme type identification
signal.
Example: news, rock, classical music, etc. (a Page 17)

Programme Identification (PI)

Each programme has its own number. This may be used to
search for another frequency on which the same pro­gramme is broadcast.

Region (REG)

Each region has its own number. This may be used to
identify the region where the station you are now listening
to is located.

Notes on MP3/WMA

What is MP3/WMA?

MP3 (MPEG Audio Layer-3) and WMA (Windows MediaTMAudio)
are the compression formats of digital audio. The former is
developed by MPEG (Motion Picture Experts Group), and the
latter is developed by Microsoft Corporation. Using these
compression formats, you can record the contents of about 10
music CDs on a single CD (This figure refers to data recorded on
a 650 MB CD-R or CD-RW at a fixed bit rate of 128 kbps and a
sampling frequency of 44.1 kHz).

Note:

¡ MP3/WMA encoding and CD writing software programs are

not supplied with this unit.

Points to remember when making MP3/WMA files

Common

¡ High bit rate and high sampling frequency are recommended

for high quality sound.

¡ Selecting VBR (Variable Bit Rate) is not recommended

because playing time is not displayed properly and sound
may be skipped.

¡ The playback sound quality differs depending on the encoding

circumstances. For details, refer to the instructions of your
own encoding software and writing software.

MP3

¡ It is recommended to set the bit rate to “128 kbps or more”

and “fixed”.

WMA

¡ It is recommended to set the bit rate to “64 kbps or more”

and “fixed”.

¡Do not set the copy protection on the WMA file to enable this

unit to play back.

Display Information

Displayed items

Displayable characters

¡ Displayable length of file name/folder name: within 64 charac-

ters. (Unicoded file and folder names are reduced by half in
the number of displayable characters.)

¡ Name files and folders in accordance with the standard of

each file system. Refer to the instructions of writing software
for details.

¡ ASCII character set and special characters in each language

can be displayed.

¡Some Cyrillic characters in the Unicode can be displayed.

ASCII character set

A to Z, a to z, digits 0 to 9, and the following symbols:

Special characters

À Á Â Ã Å à á â ã å
Ä ä
Ò Ó Ô Õ Ö ò ó ô õ ö
Ù Ú Û Ü ù ú û ü

Note:

¡ With some software in which MP3/WMA format files have

been encoded, the character information may not be dis­played properly.

¡ Undisplayable characters and symbols will be converted into

an asterisk ( ).

¡It is recommended that the length of the file name is less than

8 (excluding the file extension).

¡ You are recommended to minimize the chances of making a

disc that contains both CD-DA files and MP3/WMA files.

¡ If CD-DA files are on the same disc as MP3 or WMA files,

the songs may not play in the intended order, or some
songs may not play at all.

¡ When storing MP3 data and WMA data on the same disc,

use different folders for each data.

¡ Do not record files other than MP3/WMA files and unneces-

sary folder on a disc.

¡ The name of an MP3/WMA file should be added by rules as

shown in the following descriptions and also comply with the
rules of each file system.

¡ The file extension “.mp3” or “.wma” should be assigned to

each file depending on the file format.

¡ You may encounter trouble in playing MP3/WMA files or dis-

playing the information of MP3/WMA files recorded with cer­tain writing software or CD recorders.

¡ This unit does not have a play list function.
¡ Although Multi-session recording is supported, the use of

Disc-at-Once is recommended.

Supported file systems

Notes on CD-Rs/RWs

¡ You may have trouble playing back some CD-R/RW discs recorded using CD recorders (CD-R/RW drives), either due to

their recording characteristics or dirt, fingerprints, scratches, etc. on the disc surface.

¡ CD-R/RW discs are less resistant to high temperatures and high humidity than ordinary music CDs. Leaving them inside

a car for extended periods may damage and make playback impossible.

¡ Some CD-R/RW discs cannot be played back successfully due to incompatibility among writing software, a CD recorder

(CD-R/RW drive) and the discs.

¡ This player cannot play the CD-R/RW discs if the session is not closed.
¡ This player cannot play the CD-R/RW discs which contain other than CD-DA or MP3/WMA data.
¡ Be sure to observe the instructions of the CD-R/RW disc for handling it.

If you use commercial CDs, they must have either of

these labels shown at right.

Some copy-protected music CDs are not playable.
