Use the volume knob (1) to set Beep
sound ALL, OFF or 2ND.
- BEEP 2ND mode:
The beep is only generated when all
allowed double key is pressed long (1
sec).
e.g.
When preset button (11) is pressed.
When BAND/LOUD/ENT button (3) is
pressed.
When AS/PS (D-AUD) button (20) is
pressed.
- BEEPALL mode:
The beep is generated when every key
is pressed.
- BEEP OFF mode:
The beep is disabled.
2) AREA EUR/USA
Use the volume knob(1) to set EUR
or USA area frequency spacing.
When set AREA EUR, the button (21)
is AF function; when set AREA USA,
the button (21) has no function.
3) TAALARM/SEEK
Use the volume knob (1) to set TA
ALARM or TA SEEK.
- TA SEEK mode:
When newly tuned station does not
receive TP information for several
seconds, the radio retunes to next
station which has not the same
station (PI) as 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 (30 sec.)
or RETUNE LONG (90 sec.), the
radio start to retune to next same PI
station. When same PI station does
not catch in 1 cyclic search, the radio
retunes to next station with TP
information.
- TAALARM mode:
When this mode is selected, any
automatic retune mode is not
activated. Only double beep sound
(ALARM) is output.
When newly tuned station does not
have TP information for several
seconds, beeps come out.
When TP information gets lost at the
current station for retune time, the
beep sound is out-putted.
When newly tuned station has not
RDS signal, “PI SEEK” is
suppressed somewhat.
4) PI SOUND/MUTE
Use the volume knob (1) to set PI
SOUND or PI MUTE.
WhileAF switching is implemented in
9

C201 station, AF can switch to 100 MHz,
which is non genuine AF (where,
different PI with same AF) in short “DIP”.
If a car cruises that critical area back
and forth, an oscillation phenomenon
can be occurred, because the different
PI code can be received from 100 MHz
with “XXX” PI.
The car radio has special procedure to
reduce even this kind of unavoidable
situation however there is a limit to be
escaped from this serious case
perfectly.
In that serious case, 2 mode is
selectable as follows:
- PI SOUND mode:
When above different PI sound (DIP)
is heard once in a while, the DIP’s
sound will be heard for a short time.
- PI MUTE mode:
Under above same situation, a mute
sound will be heard for a short time.
5)
RETUNE L/S
Use the volume knob (1) to set
RETUNE L or RETUNE S.
The initial time of automatic TA search
or PI search modes is selected.
When PI information is not caught for
retune time, the radio starts to retune
to next same PI station.
When same PI station does not catch
1 cyclic search, the radio goes to last
station and waits for several minutes
until PI code is received.
- RETUNE L mode:
Selected as 90 seconds.
- RETUNE S mode:
Selected as 30 seconds.
6) MASK DPI/ALL
Use the volume knob (1) to set
MASK DPI or MASK ALL.
The AF frequency (which has different
PI or NO RDS signal with high field
strength) is masked during checking
PI when the unit searches AF. The unit
doesn’t search this AF (DIP) for few
minutes. In the case of the AF of NO
RDS signal with high field strength, if
the real AF is wrongly
masked as DIP by some interference,
the unit hesitates to search real Afs.
For this reason, the unit has the user
option (MASK DPI) which doesn’t
mask the AF of NO RDS signal with
high field strength. In MASK DPI
mode, the wrong sound or long mute
(according to PI SOUND or PI MUTE)
can be heard from the AF station
which has NO RDS signal and of
which the field strength is higher than
that of the currently tuning AF (station).
But, these phenomenons are rare and
the user will hardly hear the wrong
sound in whole Europe.
- MASK DPI mode:
Masked only the AF which has
different PI.
- MASK ALL mode:
Masked the AF which has different
PI and NO RDS signal with high
field strength.
