Changing the RDS Information ————————————————————

You can see RDS information on the display while listening to an FM station.
To view RDS information on the display, press the DISPLAY MODE button after pressing the RDS
CONTROL button on the Remote Control. Each time you press the button the display changes to
show the following information:

PS (Program Service):

Station names will be displayed. “no PS” appears if no signal is sent.

PTY (Program Type):

Types of broadcast programs will be displayed. “no PTY” appears if
no signal is sent.

RT (Radio Text):

Text message sent by stations will be displayed. “no RT” appears if
no signal is sent.

Station Frequency:

Station frequencies. (non-RDS information)

❏ While RDS information is being received from a station, “wait PS”, “wait PTY”, or “wait RT”

may appear on the display.

Searching for Programs by PTY Codes (PTY Search) ———————————

One of the advantages of the RDS service is that you can locate a particular kind of program by
specifying the PTY codes.
❏ The PTY Search function is applicable to preset stations only.
❏ PTY Search can be used even while AM (MW/LW) broadcasts are being received.

To search for a program using the PTY codes, follow this procedure, using the Remote Control:

1.

Press the RDS CONTROL button.
The number buttons on the Remote Control are set for the RDS operations.

2.

Press the PTY SEARCH button.
“PTY SELECT” flashes on the display.

3.

Press the PTY SELECT button to select a PTY code while “PTY SELECT” is flashing on the display.
Each time you press the button, the PTY codes change as follows (refer also to the list on page 14):

NONE

= NEWS = AFFAIRS = INFO = SPORT = EDUCATE = DRAMA = CULTURE =

SCIENCE

= VARIED = POP M = ROCK M = M.O.R. M = LIGHT M = CLASSICS =

OTHER M

= WEATHER = FINANCE = CHILDREN = SOCIAL A = RELIGION = PHONE IN

= TRAVEL = LEISURE = JAZZ = COUNTRY = NATIONAL = OLDIES = FOLK M =
DOCUMENT

= TEST = ALARM! = (back to the beginning)

4.

Press the PTY SEARCH button again.
While searching, “SEARCH” and the selected PTY code alternate on the display.
The unit searches 30 preset channels, stops when it finds the one you have selected, and tunes in
that station.

To continue searching after the first stop:
Press the PTY SEARCH button again while the indications on the display are flashing.
If no program is found, “NOT FOUND” appears on the display and the unit returns to the last
received station.

To stop searching any time during the process:
Press the PTY SEARCH button while searching.
