AF Function
Alternative Frequencies Lists are used for the same program service and used in conjunction with
the PI code (Program Identification code) to assist automatic tuning.
Using this information, a radio can automatically search out another station that is playing the
same material. This is useful when the station you are listening to is fading out.
Note:
• During auto switching radio frequency, some interference may be heard.
• Turning off AF function can settle this problem.
TA Function
The TA (Traffic Announcement flag) function lets the unit receive traffic announcements
automatically no matter what media source is playing back. The TA function can be activated by a
TP (Traffic Program) station broadcasting traffic information.
When TA is activated and a traffic announcement is received, the current playing source will be
overridden by the traffic announcement if the current radio band is FM, indicating that the unit is
waiting for traffic announcements.
The unit returns to the original source after the traffic announcement has been received.
CT (Clock Time)
Some stations broadcast the time and date within the encoded RDS signal. The clock time is
automatically adjusted when ‘CT’ is set to ‘ON’.
PTY Function
PTY is the abbreviation for Program Type which is a code defining the type of program being
broadcast (e.g. News or Rock).
Then PTY options will display on the screen. To view more PTY options, touch the scroll bar and
arrows on the screen.
When one PTY option is touched (e.g. News), auto search for next available PTY by increasing
tuning frequency until the PTY of the next station matches the current. If no matched PTY has
been found, the unit will return to the original radio frequency.
