OPERATING YOUR RADIO
Display Color (SCAN)
This sub-menu allows you to change the display color.
To customize your own display color, look for the word
SCAN
in the
sub-menu, then click the right front knob (#8) until
USER
is selected
in the preset color menu. Rotate the right front knob (#8) clockwise
once. You should now see
RGB.
This will allow you to edit the RGB
values for 32,000 color variations. Press the knob (#8) to select the
reds and rotate to adjust. Once a color is selected, press the same
knob (#8) to move to the greens. Repeat this process to adjust the
greens and the blues.
WARNING: Do not set all RGB settings to “00.” Doing so will turn the display off.
Resetting your radio by disconnecting the power will NOT reset the display.
Dimmer High/Low
This sub-menu allows you to adjust the radio’s display brightness
between high (
DIMM HIGH
) and low (
DIMM LOW
).
Radio Data System (RDS) ON/OFF
This sub-menu allows you to turn on or off the RDS function. The
default is
RDS ON
.
RDS tuners can automatically tune in stations according to the style
of music (or talk) they broadcast. Some RDS tuners can even break in
with traffic alerts or emergency broadcasts.
RDS enables your receiver to display text messages (usually call letters
and format info) that many FM stations include on a sub-carrier signal
within their normal broadcast signal.
The RDS function is always active, and if the FM station you are
listening to is broadcasting RDS information, the radio station call
letters, song info, artist info and other messages will appear. Not all FM
stations use RDS nor will all RDS functions work on every station.
