Change RDS Mode
There are four RDS display modes. When an RDS
station is broadcasting, PS, PTY, RT or CT mode
indicators corresponding to the services provided
light up in the CinemaStation Display. Press
FREQ/RDS repeatedly to change among the
modes supported by the currently tuned RDS
station.
Note
• When an RDS station is broadcasting, do not press FREQ/RDS until
one or more mode indicators light up in the CinemaStation Display. If
you press FREQ/RDS before the mode indicators light up,
CinemaStation may not be able to change modes.
• RDS information not provided by a station cannot be selected.
• If the RDS station’s signal transmission is too weak, CinemaStation
may not be able to use the service fully. In particular, radio text uses a
lot of bandwidth, so it may not be available even when other modes
are selectable.
• RDS information may not transmit under poor conditions. In this
case, press AUTO/MAN’L to set CinemaStation to Manual Tuning
mode. This changes reception to monaural and may help RDS
information reappear when you switch to RDS display mode.
• If outside interference disrupts an RDS station broadcast, RDS
information may suddenly disappear and “...WAIT ” appears in the
CinemaStation Display.
