In addition, there are three other program
types, TEST, Alarm!, and None. Alarm! and
TEST are used for emergency
announcements. You can't search for these,
but the tuner will switch automatically to this
RDS broadcast signal. None appears when a
program type cannot be found.
Displaying RDS information
Use the DISPLAY button to display the
different types of RDS information available
(RT, PS and PTY).
•
Press DISPLAY to select the RDS
information display.
Each press changes the display as follows:
• RT – Radio Text display
• PS – Program Service display
• PTY – Program Type display
• PTY SEARCH – see Searching for RDS
programs below
• Current tuner frequency
• If any noise is picked up while displaying
the RT scroll, some characters may be
displayed incorrectly.
• If you see No Data in the RT display, it
means no RT data is transmitted from the
broadcast station. If you have entered a
name for the station, it is broadcast
instead of RT data. If you haven't, the
display will automatically switch to the PS
data display. If no PS data is transmitted
from the station, the frequency will be
displayed.
• In the PTY display, there are cases where
No Data or None is shown. If this
happens, the PS display is shown after a
few seconds.
