How the EON function actually works:
CASE 1
If there is no station broadcasting the program you
have selected
The unit continues tuning in the current station.
«
When a station starts broadcasting the program you
have selected, the unit automatically switches to the
station. The indicator of received PTY code starts
flashing.
«
When the program is over, “EON END” appears in the
main display, and the unit goes back to the previously
tuned station, but the EON function still remains
activated.
CASE 2
If there is a station broadcasting the program you
have selected
The unit tunes in the program. The indicator of received
PTY code starts flashing.
«
When the program is over, “EON END” appears in the
main display, and the unit goes back to the previously
tuned station, but the EON function still remains
activated.
CASE 3
If the FM station you are listening to is broadcasting
the program you have selected
The unit continues to receive the station but the
indicator of received PTY code starts flashing.
«
When the program is over, the indicator of received
PTY code stops flashing and remains lit, but the EON
function still remains activated.
More about the EON function
• EON data sent from some stations may not be compatible with
this unit.
• While listening to a program tuned in by the EON function, the
station does not change even if another network station starts
broadcasting a program of the same EON data.
• While listening to a program tuned in by the EON function, you
can only use the EON and DISPLAY buttons as the tuner
operation buttons.
• If the stations alternate intermittently between the station tuned
by the EON function and the currently tuned station
(“WAITING” flashes in the main display), press EON to cancel
the EON function.
If you do not press the button, the currently tuned station is
received finally (“NOT FOUND” appears this time), and the
indication of the EON data type flashing on the display
disappears.
Alarm function
If an ALARM (Emergency) signal is received from a
station while listening to the radio, the unit automatically
switches to the station broadcasting the ALARM signal,
except when you are listening to non-RDS stations (all
AM – MW/LW and some FM stations).
Test function
The TEST signal is used for testing the ALARM signal.
Therefore, it makes the unit work in the same way as the
ALARM signal does.
If a TEST signal is received from a station while
listening to the radio, the unit automatically switches to
the station broadcasting the TEST signal, except when
you are listening to non-RDS stations (all AM – MW/
LW and some FM stations).
