Using the Radio Data System (RDS)
RDS is a broadcasting service which a growing number of FM
stations provide. These FM stations send additional signals along
with their regular programme signals. They send their station
names, and information about the type of programme such as
sport, music, etc.
When tuned to an RDS station, “RDS” and the station name will be
displayed.
“TP” (Trafc Programme) will appear on the display when the received
broadcast carries trafc information, and “TA” (Trafc Announcement)
will appear whilst a trafc information is on air.
“PTYI” (Dynamic PTY Indicator) will appear whilst the Dynamic PTY
station is received.
You can control the RDS by using the buttons on the remote
control only.
