5. FUNCTIONS OF THE CONTROLS
1) TA [TRAFFIC ANNOUNCEMENT]
When TA mode is ON (TA is displayed on LCD), it will begin to seek TA station and TA SEEK will be
displayed on LCD for a while.
When traffic announcement is transmitted:
(1)If the unit is in USB or disc mode, it will switch to radio mode temporarily.
Temporarily switch over to an EON linked station when EON detects a traffic announcement on that
other program, and TP will be displayed on LCD.
(2) If volume level is below 20, volume level is raised to 20, and returns to its previous mode and
volume level when the traffic announcement is over.
(3)If volume is adjusted during traffic announcement, only the traffic announcement volume is valid.
* TA interruption function:
The current traffic announcement is cancelled by pressing this key. But the TA mode will not be off.
* When TA is on, SEEK, (SCAN), AUTO MEMORY function can be received or saved only when
traffic program identification code has been received.
2) AF [ALTERNATIVE FREQUENCIES]
When AF switching mode is selected and the state of AF switching mode is displayed by AF segment in
display.
Segment off: AF switching mode off.
Segment on: AF switching mode on, and has RDS information.
Segment flashing: AF switching mode on, but RDS information is not received yet.
When AF switching mode is selected, the radio checks the signal strength of AF all the time. The
interval of checking time of each AFs depends on the signal strength of current station, from a few
minute for strong station to a few seconds for weak station. Every time that new AF is stronger than
current station, it switches over to that frequency for very short time, and NEW FREQUENCY is
displayed for 1-2 seconds. Because the mute time of AF switching or checking time is very short, it is
almost inaudible in case of normal program.
During FM mode, when AF is on, SEEK, (SCAN), AUTO-MEMORY function can only receive and save
RDS program.
3) TA SEEK/TA ALARM:
TA SEEK mode: when newly tuned station does not receive TP information for 5 seconds, the radio
retunes to next station which has a different PI to the last station, but has the TP information.
When TP information gets lost at the current station for retune time which is set by RETUNE SHORT (60
seconds) or RETUNE LONG (90 seconds), the radio starts to retune to next same PI station. When
same PI station does not receive in 1 cyclic search, the radio retunes to next station with TP
information.
TA ALARM mode: when this mode is selected, any automatic retune mode is not activated. Only double
beep sound (ALARM) will be heard:
When newly tuned station does not have TP information for 5 seconds, beeps are sounded.
When TP information gets lost at the current station for retune time, the beep sound will be heard.
When newly tuned station has no RDS signal, PI SEEK is suppressed.
