RDS (Radio Data System)
RDS service availability varies with areas. Please understand if RDS service is not available in you area, the following service is not available.
RDS Basics
AF(Alternative Frequency): When the radio signal strength is poor, enabling the AF function will allow the unit to automatically search another
station with the same PI (program identification) as the current station but with stronger signal strength.
PS (Program Service name): The name of station will be display instead of frequency.
AF Mode:
AF on: AF function is activated.
AF off: AF function is disabled.
Remark: PTY indicator on LCD will flash until RDS information is received. If RDS service is not available in your area, turn off the AF mode.
REG Mode: Press PTY for more than 2 seconds to switch REG mode on and off.
REG on: AF function will implement the regional code (of the PI) and only stations in the current region can be tuned automatically.
REG off: AF function will ignore the regional code (of the PI) and stations in the other regions can also be tuned automatically.
Traffic Announcements
Some RDS FM stations periodically provide traffic information.
TP ( Traffic Program Identification ) Broadcasting of traffic information
TA ( Traffic Announcements Identification )Radio announcements on traffic conditions
TA Mode: When TA mode is turned on, the TA indicator will blink.
When traffic announcement is received, the TA indicator will display. The unit will temporarily switch to the tuner mode (regardless of the current
mode) and begin broadcasting the announcement at TA volume level. After the traffic announcement is over, it will return to the previous mode
and volume level. When TA is turned on, SEEK, SCAN, AMS function can only be received or saved when traffic program identification (TP)
code is received.
EON (Enhanced Other Networks)
When EON data is received, the EON indicator lights and the TA and AF functions are enhanced.
TA: Traffic information can be received from the current station or stations in other network.
AF: The frequency list of preset RDS stations is updated by EON data. EON enables the radio to make fuller use of RDS information. It
constantly updates the AF list of preset stations, including the one that currently tuned into. If you preset a station around the area at your home,
you will later be able to receive the same station at an alternative
