Listening to the Radio—Continued

RDS stands for Radio Data System and is a method of
transmitting data in FM radio signals. Many FM sta-
tions use it these days.

The T-4355 supports the following types of RDS data:

PS: Program Service Name
When tuned to an RDS station that’s broadcasting PS
information, the station’s name appears on the display.

RT: Radio Text
When tuned to an RDS station that’s broadcasting RT
text information, the text scrolls across the display.

Note:
If the signal from an RDS station is weak, RDS data
maybe displayed intermittently or not at all.

Displaying RDS information

Note:
You must be tuned to an FM station that supports RT
(Radio Text) in order to display any text.

Notes:
• If the current station does not support RDS, only the

frequency and preset name (see page 17) will be dis-
played. If the current preset has no name, only the
frequency will be displayed.

• In some cases, it may take between 2 and 15 seconds

for the RT text to be displayed.

• The message “Waiting···” may appear while the RT

data is being received.

• When tuned to an RDS station that’s not transmitting

any RT data, the message “No Text” will be dis-
played.
