What is RDS?
The RDS(Radio Data System) is a digital information system
developed by the EBU(European Broadcasting Union). Pick-a-
backed on normal FM broadcasts, RDS offers a variety of
information services and automatic retuning functions for RDS-
compatible car stereos.
In 1988 RDS became available in the United Kingdom, France,
West Germany, Ireland and Sweden. Test transmissions are
being conducted in many other European countries. It is expected
that RDS will be available in most western European countries in
the near future.
NOTE !The RDS function of this unit uses the RDS data
transmitted along with FM broadcasts. It does not work in
the MW(AM). The RDS function may not work properly in
the areas where test transmissions are being conducted.
Important !
As a result of PS function the station display changes over to
frequency display during the manual or automatic search for a
station.
Program service (display of station name)
The radio indicates the name of the RDS-station on the display, if
you receive a station with RDS-signals.
RDS digital data includes various data :
PI ... Program Identification
Recognizes the country code and the program of the channel.
PS ... program Service Name
The name of the channel is shown in the display.
AF ... List of alternative frequencies
A list of alternative frequencies with the same program contents to
tune automatically to the stronger station which broadcasts the
program
Using PI and AF.
TP ... Traffic program
Recognizes channels with traffic information.
TA ... Traffic announcement
Detects traffic information broadcast via the channel.
PTY 31 ... Alarm code
Detects alarm announcement via the channel(catastrophe alarm)
REG ... Regional change
Change to regional stations.
EON ... Enhanced other networks
Make the traffic announcement for stations without traffic decoder
possible.
RADIO

USING THE RDS FUNCTIONS

9. AF(network following) reception (AF, 9 )
This unit returns to the stronger alternative transmitter in the list of
alternative frequencies(AF). The display indicates “AF” as
confirmation on the display. Thus a motorist can keep listening to
the same program.
Example :If there are the following network broadcasting stations,
The reception frequency automatically changes from
98.5MHz to 107.5MHz or 96.0MHz to 102.5MHz, but a
motorist can keep listening to the same program while
driving from point A to point B.
The AF-function is only possible with FM. To select AF-function
switch to FM and press the button AF/REG for about 1.5 seconds.
After the radio has tuned into an RDS transmitter it will
automatically find the best transmitter in the particular chain of
transmitters as soon as reception starts to get worse, using the PI
and AF code systems, as long as you are still driving within the
areas of the particular areas.
The display shows the indication “AF” on the display.
Sometimes it may seem that the radio has gone off for a short
while. There is no fault-the radio is merely checking the quality or
other signals on the AF-list. If muting disturbs turn off the AF-
function.
When the radio switches over to an alternative frequency, it will go
quiet for a moment because it first has to check out the accuracy of
the PI data for the new frequency.
If you leave a reception area and there is no alternative AF
frequency, the PS data stay in the memory and are deleted only
when you start searching for a station.
If you have memorized manually any station, the mode of the AF-
function (turned on/off)also memorized.
RADIO

USING THE RDS FUNCTIONS

Change-over to regional program (REG, 10)
At certain times some national radio stations broadcast regional
program. It is possible to pre-tune these station by pressing
button REG/AF shortly. The display shows “REG”. Automatically
after 5 seconds or by pressing any button the display shows the
frequency indication or the name of the chosen program. If you
want to continue to receive the particular regional program, you
are tuned in to keep the function on.
If the frequency changes, the radio will only react to those
stations with this regional program. You can switch off the
function again by pressing button REG/AF shortly.
You can change to regional function again by pressing REG/AF
buttons shortly. The function is confirmed by the word “REG” on
the display.
If you have memorized manually any station the mode of the
REG-function(turned on/off)is also memorized.
Example : A chain of radio transmitters is transmitting a music
program nationally and a different program(a
commentary)regionally at the same time. If the REG-
function is not on, it may be that the radio switches
from the preset regional spoken program to the
nationally transmitted music program if the frequency
is changed(AF-function) because of poor reception. If
the REG-function is on however, the radio will
automatically search for only those stations which are
transmitting the same regional program originally
selected. It is impossible for the radio to switch to
another national station.
10. Traffic broadcast recognition (TA, 10)
If the button “TA/TPST” is pressed for less than 1.5 seconds,
RDS-stations transmitting traffic information can be heard. “TA” is
displayed when this function is engaged. When the set is CD
mode, the radio automatically tunes to a strong FM station
transmitting traffic information in the back ground. If the CD player
is on, when a traffic announcement is transmitted, the CD is
interrupted and the announcement is received at normal volume.
Even if the volume is completely turned down, the traffic
announcement will be heard at normal volume. Once the
announcement ended, the previous volume is resumed. The CD
starts playing again.
Traffic information breaks through only when both TP and TA are
displayed at the same time.
If only TP is displayed, no traffic information is transmitted by the
current transmitter.
To give priority to search for stations transmitting traffic
information, press the TA button for more than 1.5 seconds.
“TPST ON” will be displayed.
To continue listening to a weak station not transmitting traffic
information, press TA button for more than 1.5 seconds, “TPST
OFF” will be displayed.
To disregard a traffic information message, press the TA button
for less than 1.5 seconds. And then “TA” indicator will be
disappeared.

USING THE RDS FUNCTIONS

Traffic information recognition (TP, 10)
If the RDS-station tuned on, the unit recognizes RDS-frequencies
with traffic information(TP). “TP” will be indicated on the display in
reception of one of these frequencies.
NOTE : During traffic announcement CD playing stops. You can
hear traffic announcement at normal volume also in low
volume status, if the TA-function is activated.
PI seek
PI-automatic seek starts automatically, if you recall a preset button
when its reception is weak. PI-seek ends automatically if a station
with the same PI and a better reception is found. During seek the
unit is searching for a station with the same program
identification(PI) and a better reception. It is useful in some areas
where some stations send no AF-list.
If the radio doesn’t find a station with the same PI-code, it returns
to the station you heard before.
What is EON?
EON(Enhanced Other Network) is a new RDS service provided
by certain station networks.
Even if you are tuned in to an RDS station which does not give
traffic news, e.g. a classical music program, you can still get the
traffic news by pressing TA/TPST-button, which tunes your radio
in to the traffic news. If another RDS transmitter now starts to
broadcast traffic news, yours radio automatically switches to this
station for the traffic news. When the traffic news is finished, it
switches back to the station you were on before.
NOTE : Thanks to this new RDS-function, the alternative
frequency list of the selected chain of stations is
automatically updated and this ensures that there is
always an instant automatic search of the best RDS
stations in all programs to the particular chain of stations.
Program type recognition (PTY, 8)
Radios equipped with PTY are able to display the various
program features of an individual station. By selecting the PTY
function you can get stations with the feature you want, i.e
stations which broadcast mainly news bulletins, sports, pop music
or rock music, for example.
The radio will then only seek those with the features you have
preselected.

Selecting the PTY function
Depress the button for approx. 2 seconds to tune on the PTY-
function. If the station just receives a PTY-program the indication
of the program name lights in the display window. If there is no
station of program type available at that time, the display shows
“NO PTY”.
Selection of a program via the seek-function;
selecting a station of the correct program type
By selecting the PTY function you are able to find the type of
program you want by repeatedly touching one of the no. 1~6
keys in the appropriate direction and then you can choose
