RDS (Radio Data System) (for U.K. only): RDS is a system where radio
stations transmit digital data for FM broadcasts along with the broadcast
signal. Tuners and receivers designed for RDS reception can extract the
data from the broadcast signal for use with various functions such as
automatic display of the station name.
RDS Functions help you:
• Search for programs of a specific type using Program Type Identifica-
tion Search. (PTY search)
• Search for a station automatically when you select the station name.
(PS Read)
• View information about a station:
• the station name
• any text data transmitted by the station
• Automatically select stations providing RDS and FM broadcasting and
store them in the preset memory (up to 40 stations can be preset).
For more information about storing stations, see “Storing Radio Sta-
tions in Memory (optional)” on page 41 of the Connections and Setup
Guide.
Before using RDS functions, be sure to perform “Storing RDS Stations
Automatically” on page 41 of the Connections and Setup Guide.
