FREQ PS/PTY/RT/CT
Changing the RDS modes
When an RDS station is received, by pressing the
FREQ PS/PTY/RT/CT selector button once or more,
you can change the display mode among the RDS
modes employed by the received station in the order
shown below. (The RDS mode not employed by the
station cannot be selected.)
Notes
● If the received station is not an RDS station, pressing
the FREQ PS/PTY/RT/CT selector button displays
“NO RDS” on the display, and then it returns to the
frequency display mode.
● When an RDS station is received, the display is
automatically turned into the PS mode. Do not press
the FREQ PS/PTY/RT/CT selector button until the
display is turned into the PS mode. If the button is
pressed before the display mode is changed, it may
occur that “NO PS” appears on the display. This is
because the unit has not received all of the RDS
data on the station yet.
➀ Frequency display mode
The frequency of the station being received is
displayed.
➁ PS (Program Service name) mode
The name of the station being received is
displayed using characters selected from among
64 Roman Alphabets including umlaut sign.
* If other characters are used on the PS data,
they are displayed with underbars.
* “PS WAIT” may flash while the unit is
receiving the data.
* If the station does not employ the PS data
service, “NO PS” lights up on the display for
about 2 seconds and then returns to
frequency display mode.
➂ PTY (Program Type) mode
The type of the program on the station being
received is displayed.
In this mode, you can make this unit search for a
station which is broadcasting a program of your
desired program type. For details, refer to page
42.
* If the RDS station does not employ the PTY
data service, “NO PTY” lights up on the
display for about 2 seconds and then returns
to frequency display mode.
* If the station has PS data, after that, it turns
into the PS mode.
