Radio mode with RDS
The function
RDS
is always active for the navigation system.
More and more USW broadcasting companies transmit RDS information in addi-
tion to the program. E.g the station name and the traffic status of the set station
belong to this information.
Alternative frequency AF
The function alternative frequency ensures that the best receivable frequency of
the selected station is automatically and precisely set.
The replay of the broadcast can be muted briefly during the search process
according to the best receivable frequency.
If no alternative frequency of the set station can be found and the station no longer
offers a satisfactory quality, then please select another station.
TMC (Traffic Message Channel)
Certain radio stations transmit digital traffic announcements in addition to their
programme. The announcements are received by your navigation system and used
for a dynamic route guidance
⇒
page 29. If a station has TMC at its disposal, “
TMC
”
is shown in the standard field - status range - of the display. These stations can be
stored on two memory levels TC1 and TC2.
RDS regional
Certain programs of the broadcasting companies are divided into regional
programs at specific times.
First of all the unit attempts to set only alternative frequencies of the selected
station.
If the quality is however so low, that there is a risk of a “program loss”, the navigation
system accepts also frequencies, which are “related” to the station. As this station
emits temporarily different programs and due to such a change in frequency also
the programme from one of the “related” stations can be heard
