Using RDS (excluding North American and
Taiwanese models)
When tuned into an RDS station, the RDS indicator lights.
When the station is broadcasting text information, the text
can be displayed.
What is RDS?
RDS stands for Radio Data System and is a method of
transmitting data in FM radio signals. It was developed by
the European Broadcasting Union (EBU) and is available
in most European countries. Many FM stations use it these
days. In addition to displaying text information, RDS can
also help you find radio stations by type (e.g., news, sport,
rock, etc.).
The AV receiver supports four types of RDS information:
PS (Program Service)
When tuned to an RDS station that’s broadcasting PS
information, the station’s name will be displayed. Pressing
DISPLAY will display the frequency for 3 seconds.
RT (Radio Text)
When tuned to an RDS station that’s broadcasting text
information, the text will be shown on the AV receiver’s
display as described in the next section.
PTY (Program Type)
This allows you to search for RDS radio stations by type.
TP (Traffic Program)
This allows you to search for RDS radio stations that
broadcast traffic information.
Note
In some cases, the text characters displayed on the AV receiver
may not be identical to those broadcast by the radio station. Also,
unexpected characters may be displayed when unsupported
characters are received. This is not a malfunction.
If the signal from an RDS station is weak, RDS data may be
displayed intermittently or not at all.
Displaying Radio Text (RT)
Finding Stations by Type (PTY)
You can search for radio stations by type.

You can search for stations that broadcast traffic news.
RDS works only in areas where RDS broadcasts are
available.

Press RT/PTY/TP once.
The RT information scrolls across the AV receiver’s
display.
Note
The message “Waiting” may appear while the AV receiver
waits for the RT information.
If the message “No Text Data” appears, no RT information
is available.
1
Press RT/PTY/TP twice.

receiver’s display.
2
Use PRESET e/r to select the type of program
you want.
See the table shown later in this chapter.
3
To start the search, press ENTER.
The AV receiver searches until it finds a station of the
type you specified, at which point it stops briefly
before continuing with the search.
4
When a station you want to listen to is found, press
ENTER.
If no stations are found, the message “Not Found
appears.
1
Press RT/PTY/TP three times.
If the current radio station is broadcasting TP (Traffic
Program), “[TP]” will appear on the AV receiver’s
display. If “TP” without square brackets appears, this
means that the station is not broadcasting TP.

To locate a station that is broadcasting TP, press
ENTER.
The AV receiver searches until it finds a station that’s
broadcasting TP.

appears.
