Tracing the same programme—
Network-Tracking Reception
When driving in an area where FM reception
is not sufficient enough, this unit automatically
tunes in to another FM RDS station of the
same network, possibly broadcasting the same
programme with stronger signals (see the
illustration below).
Programme A broadcasting on different frequency areas
(01 – 05)
When shipped from the factory, Network-
Tracking Reception is activated.
To change the Network-Tracking Reception
setting,
see “AF-Reg” on page 24.
Automatic station selection—
Programme Search
Usually when you press the number buttons,
the preset station is tuned in.
If the signals from the FM RDS preset station
are not sufficient for good reception, this unit,
using the AF data, tunes in to another frequency
broadcasting the same programme as the
original preset station is broadcasting.
• The unit takes some time to tune in to
another station using programme search.
• See also page 24.
Using the message service—
RDS Radiotext (RT)
What is RDS Radiotext
RDS Radiotext is part of the RDS data signal
to transmit various text information (e.g.
programme information, phone numbers,
e-mail and web addresses, artist/title
information, and news headlines). The text
service is part of the RDS broadcast.
One message may contain up to 64 characters.
The message service is an optional service and is
not supported by all broadcasters.
Once you tuned in to a station that supports
the message service, the service is automatically
received.
To show the RDS Radiotext (RT) information
While listening to a station that supports RT...
Radiotext screen appears on
the display.
• The Radiotext screen will be temporarily
canceled when you operate the unit.
It takes time to load data. While loading,
“Loading” and progress indications appear.
• You can see approximate loading percentage
with the indications.
If text message is unavailable, the text screen
will change to source operation screen. Yet,
when text message becomes available later, the
text screen will automatically appear.
