Changing the RDS modes
When an RDS station is received, by pressing the FREQ
PS/PTY/RT/CT selector button once or more, you can
change the display mode among the RDS modes employed
by the received station in the order shown below. (The RDS
mode not employed by the station cannot be selected.)
* If the station is not an RDS station, pressing the FREQ
PS/PTY/RT/CT selector button displays “NO RDS” on the
display, and then it returns to the frequency display mode.
* When an RDS station is received, the display is
automatically turned into the PS mode. Do not press the
FREQ PS/PTY/RT/CT selector button until the display is
turned into the PS mode. If the button is pressed before
the display mode is changed, it may occur that “NO PS”
appears on the display. This is because the unit has not
received all of the RDS data on the station yet.
➀
Frequency display mode
The frequency of the station being received is
displayed.
➁
PS (Program Service name) mode
The name of the station being received is displayed
using characters selected from among 64 Roman
Alphabets including umlaut sign. If other characters
are used on the PS data, they are displayed with
underbars.
“PS WAIT” may flash while the unit is receiving the
data.
If the station does not employ the PS data service,
“NO PS” lights up on the display for about 2 seconds
and then returns to frequency display mode.
➂
PTY (Program Type) mode
The type of the program on the station being received
is displayed. If the RDS station does not employ the
PTY data service, “NO PTY” lights up on the display
for about 2 seconds and then returns to frequency
display mode.
If the station has PS data, after that, it turns into the
PS mode.
In this mode, you can make this unit search for a
station which is broadcasting a program of your
desired program type. For details, refer to the next
page.
➃
RT (Radio Text) mode
Information about the program on the station being
received is displayed. Information is displayed by a
maximum of 64 Roman Alphabets including umlaut
sign. If other characters are used on the RT data, they
are displayed with underbars.
“RT WAIT” may flash while the unit is receiving the
data.
If the RDS station does not employ the RT data
service, “NO RT” lights up on the display for about 2
seconds and then returns to frequency display mode.
If the station has PS data, after that, it turns into the
PS mode.
➄
CT (Clock Time) mode
Current time is displayed in the following form. The
CT data from the station being received changes
every minute.
This unit corrects time of the built-in clock by
synchronizing it with the CT data. (This function can
also be canceled, if so desired. Refer to page 30 for
details.)
“CT WAIT” may flash while the unit is receiving the
data. If the data is accidentally cut off, “CT WAIT” may
flash and then turn into “NO CT”.
If the RDS station does not employ the CT data
service, “NO CT” lights up on the display for about 2
seconds and then returns to frequency display mode.
If the station has PS data, after that, it turns into the
PS mode.
