Radio Data Service (RDS)

Some FM radio stations broadcast Radio Data Service

(RDS) text along with their programs. Station Identification

Text is displayed in the first 8 characters of the lower line.

This text generally does not change. Descriptive Text

is displayed on the top line. This text may describe the

station’s format or it may show the song title and artist.

CD-Text

Audio CDs now include descriptive text stored along

with their audio programs. The radio CD will decode and

display this text.

MP3/WMA File ID3 Text Information

MP3/WMA files downloaded from the internet may

contain ID3 text information. ID3 text information can be

added to MP3/WMA files as the file is created from an

uncompressed audio source. The radio CD will display

this text when present in MP3/WMA files. If there is no ID3

text information, the radio CD will display the file name.

Choosing Text Displays

The JOG menu has separate RDS text and Disc text

headings that let you choose between scrolling text

display, static text display or no text display.
