Using RDS
(Radio Data System)
RDS is a system that transmits useful information (in the form of digital
data) for FM broadcasts along with the broadcast signal. Tuners and
receivers designed for RDS reception can extract the information from
the broadcast signal for use with various functions, such as automatic
display of the station name.
RDS functions:
PTY (Program TYpe Identification) Search
º
Automatically tunes to a station that is currently broadcasting the
specified program type (genre).
PS (Program Service Name) Display
Automatically displays the station name transmitted by the RDS
station.
RDS AUTO MEMORY function
ª
Automatically selects and stores up to 40 RDS stations in the preset
memory.
If fewer than 40 RDS stations have been stored in the preset memory,
regular FM stations will be stored in the remaining places.
Radio Text function
Displays the radio text data transmitted by some RDS stations when
you press the
RDS Disp
(display) key. There is “NO RT” if no text data
is transmitted.
The “
RDS
” indicator lights up when an RDS broadcast (signal) is
received.
Note
Some functions and function names may differ for certain countries
and areas.
Listening to radio broadcasts
The receiver can store up to 40 stations in the memory and recall them
by one-touch operation.
Radio stations can be classified into RDS (Radio Data System) stations
and other stations. To listen to or store RDS stations in the preset
memory see “Using RDS (Radio Data System)”.
