About RDS  
Programme Search (PTY)  
A major benefit of RDS is its ability to encode  
broadcasts with Programme Type (PTY) codes  
that indicate the type of material being broadcast.  
The following list shows the abbreviations used to  
indicate each PTY along with an explanation of  
the PTY.  
This unit is equipped with RDS (Radio Data  
System), which brings a wide range of informa-  
tion to FM radio. Now in use in many countries,  
RDS is a system for transmitting station call signs  
or network information, a description of station  
programme type text message about the station  
or specifics of musical selection and the correct  
time.  
RDS Tuning  
When a FM station is tuned in and it contains  
RDS data, the unit will automatically display the  
station’s call sign and the RDS indicator will light  
in the Display Window as well as indicators for  
the programme type recognition (PTY), Radio  
Text (RT), Clock Time (CT) and RDS services  
programme (PS) if transmitted by the station.  
RDS Display Options  
The RDS system is capable of transmitting a  
wide variety of information in addition to the initial  
call sign that appears when a station is first  
tuned. In normal RDS operation the display will  
indicate the station name, broadcast network or  
call letters. Pressing RDS on the front panel  
enables you to cycle through the various data  
types in the sequence:  
You may search for a specific Programme Type  
(PTY) by following these steps:  
(PS  
FREQUENCY  
PTY  
RT  
CT)  
PTY (Programme type recognition)- The name  
of the programme type is shown in the Display  
Window.  
RT (Radio text recognition)- The name of the  
radio text is shown in the Display Window.  
CT (Time controlled by the channel)- Enables  
the unit to receive the actual time and show it in  
the Display Window.  
1. Press TUNER/BAND to select FM mode.  
2. Select a desired station by pressing  
TUNING (+/-). When the RDS transmission is  
received, the display shows the program  
service name (PS) after RDS indicator  
appears.  
3. Press the RDS to select PTY mode.  
PS (Programme Service name)- The name of  
the channel is shown in the Display Window.  
4. To search for a different PTY, press the PRESET  
(+/-) while the last PTY in use is still  
displayed to scroll through the list of available  
PTY types.  
ote  
Some RDS stations may not choose to include  
some of these additional features.If the data  
required for the selected mode is not being  
transmitted, the Display Window will show a  
PTY NONE, RT NONE, CT NONE, PS NONE  
message.  
5. When the PTY is selected, press the  
(.m/M>) within 5 seconds.  
The unit will go into an automatic search  
mode and attempt to find the next station  
with acceptable signal strength that matches  
the desired PTY type.
