C2N-TFM FM Tuner RDS Information Input and Output Signal Descriptions
(continued)
SIGNAL TYPE AND
NAME DESCRIPTION
Analog input:
<TuneByTraffic>
Selects a traffic report station to search.
Valid analog values are as follows:
1 = TA (Traffic Announcement) - searches for
stations that broadcast special traffic
announcements.
2 = TP (Traffic Program) - searches for stations
that regularly broadcast traffic information during
the day.
3 = TA/TP (combination) - searches for stations
currently broadcasting traffic announcements.
Setting this analog to a valid traffic report value
initiates the search. The search operation stops
when:
1) a station is found with the given TA/TP flag; or
2) the Tuner, Scan, PTY Search, or Band mode
buttons are pressed; or
3) the maximum loop counter has been reached.
Sending a new analog value will cancel the current
search and initiate a new search.
Analog input:
<TuneByPrgTypeNumber>
Selects a PTN code (program type number) to
search. There are 31 different program categories
available for selection. The categories differ
depending on whether the tuner is in US or
European mode.
Valid values range from 1 to 31. Refer to the table
at the end of this topic for a table of codes and
their corresponding categories.
Setting this analog value to a valid PTN initiates
the search. The search operation stops when:
1) a station is found with the given category; or
2) the Tune, Scan, TA/TP Search, or Band mode
buttons are pressed; or
3) the maximum loop counter has been reached.
Sending a new analog value will cancel the current
search and initiate a new search.
Analog output:
<PrgTypeCode>
Reports the PTN code of the current station. The
analog values will range from 1 to 31.
The program type name and additional information
are reported as serial strings via
<ProgramTypeName>.
Analog output:
<UTC_Year>
Some stations that support RDS/RBDS transmit
UTC (universal time clock) information.
This analog reports the UTC year. For example,
the year 2004 will report as 2004d.
