RDS OPERATIONS
PTY FUNCTION
■
PTY is the abbreviation for Program Type which is a code defining the type of program
being broadcasted (e.g. News or Rock).
■
Six PTY options will display on the screen. To view more PTY options, touch the scroll
bar and arrows on the screen.
■
When one PTY option is touched (e.g. News), auto search for next available PTY by
increasing tuning frequency will take place, until the PTY of the next station matches
the current. lf no matched PTY has been found, the unit will return to the original radio
frequency.

which may use Upper or Lower case characters, e.g {BBC_4_FM}, {Classic_}.
CT (CLOCK TIME)

Some stations broadcast the time and date within the encoded RDS signal. The clock
time is automatically adjusted when 'CT' is set to 'On'.
RT (RADIO TEXT)

When this function is activated, the unit will display short message data transmitted
from the provider, such as station information, the name of the current broadcasting
song and the artist name.
