RDS OPERATION
Now in use in many countries, RDS (Radio Data
System) is a description of the station’s programming
hidden space in the FM signal.
Your new receiver is equipped with RDS to assist
in the selection of FM stations using station and
network names, rather than broadcast frequencies.
Additional RDS functions include the ability to search
for programme types.
RADIO TEXT
Some RDS stations broadcast RADIO TEXT, which is
additional information on the station and programme
being broadcast.
RADIO TEXT information appears as ‘running’ text
in the display. RADIO TEXT is transmitted character
by the radio station. As a result of that it may take
some time until the entire text has been completely
received.
RDS DISPLAY
When a receiver is tuned to an FM station that is
transmitting RDS data, the Front Panel Information
Display will automatically show the station name or
RADIO TEXT in place of the typical display of the
station’s broadcast frequency.
To change the display, press the T-DISP button on
the remote.
