Using the Radio Data System
(RDS)
What you can do with the Radio Data
System
Radio Data System (RDS) is a broadcasting service that
allows radio stations to send additional information
along with the regular radio programme signal. This
receiver offers you three convenient RDS features:
Displaying the RDS information; Monitoring of traffic,
news, or information programmes; and Locating a
station by programme type. RDS is available only on
FM stations.*
Note
RDS may not work properly if the station you are tuned to is
not transmitting the RDS signal properly or if the signal
strength is weak.
* Not all FM stations provide RDS service, nor do they
provide the same types of services. If you are not familiar
with the RDS system, check with your local radio stations
for details on RDS services in your area.
Receiving RDS broadcasts
Simply select a station from the FM band.
When you tune in a station that provides RDS services,
the station name appears in the display.
Displaying the RDS Information
Press DISPLAY. Each time you press DISPLAY, the
display advances one step through the following
information.
**This information also appears for non-RDS FM stations.

Locate a specific type of
programme being broadcast.
(See page 16 for the types of
programmes you can select.)
Display the text messages sent
by the RDS station.
Display the current time
Notes
If there is an emergency announcement by governmental
authorities, ALARM flashes in the display.
When the message consists of 9 characters or more, the
message scrolls across the display.
The following messages appear if a station is not
providing a particular RDS service:
NO PTY (the selected programme type is not available)
NO TEXT (text data is not available)
NO TIME (clock time data is not available)
Depending on the method used by the radio station to
send the text, some text messages may be incomplete.
Monitoring traffic, news, or information
programmes (EON)
The EON (Enhanced Other Network) function allows
the receiver to switch automatically to a station
broadcasting traffic announcements, news or
information programmes. When such a programme
starts on a station networking with the preset FM RDS
station, the receiver automatically tunes in the station.
After the programme ends, the receiver switches back
to the original preset station or the programme source
you were originally listening to.
1 Tune to an FM station.
2 Press RDS EON to select the programme you
want to monitor.
Each time you press RDS EON, the indicators
light as follows:
TA (Traffic Announcement)
.
NEWS
.
INFO (Information)
.
OFF (No indication lights up)
The receiver enters EON standby mode.
NO TA, NO NEWS, or NO INFO appears if you
press RDS EON before tuning to an RDS station.
When a station starts broadcasting the programme you
selected, the receiver switches to the station, a message
(e.g., NOW TA) appears and the respective indicator
(e.g.,TA) flashes. After the programme ends, the
receiver switches back to the station you were listening
to (or the function you were using).
To stop monitoring the programme
Press RDS EON once.

Turn off the EON feature when you want to record a
programme without interruptions, especially when you
want to do timer recording.
Notes
To use this function, be sure to store the RDS stations
beforehand.
When the selected station has a weak signal, WEAK SIG
appears and then, the receiver returns to the previous
station or programme source.
Locating a station by programme type
(PTY)
You can locate a station you want by selecting a
programme type. The receiver tunes in the type of
programmes currently being broadcast from the RDS
stations stored in the receiver's preset memory.
1 Press RDS PTY to display the current PTY type.
Press PRESET/PTY SELECT + or until the
programme type you want appears in the display.
See the following table for the programme types
you can select.
2 Press RDS PTY while the programme type
appears in the display.
The tuner starts searching the preset RDS stations
for the programme (SEARCH and the
programme type are displayed alternately).
When the receiver finds the programme you are
looking for, it stops searching. The preset number
of the preset station currently broadcasting the
selected programme type flashes, and the receiver
receives the station.
Note
NO PTY appears when the programme type that you've
selected is not being broadcast and the receiver returns to
the original station.
