Using the Radio Data System (RDS) (continued)
Using the Auto Station Programme
Memory (ASPM)
Whilst in the ASPM operation mode, the tuner will automatically
search for new RDS stations. Up to 40 stations can be stored.
If you have already stored some stations in memory, the number
of new stations you can store will be less.
1 Press the TUNER button on the remote control or TUNER/
AUDIO IN button repeatedly on the main unit to select TUNER
function.
2 Press and hold down the RDS ASPM button on the remote
control.
1 After “ASPM” has fl ashed for about 4 seconds, scanning will
start (87.50 - 108.00 MHz).
2 When an RDS station is found, “RDS” will appear for a short
time and the station will be stored in memory.
3 After scanning, the number of stations stored in memory will
be displayed for 4 seconds, and then “END” will appear for 4
seconds.
To stop the ASPM operation before it is complete:
Press the RDS ASPM button whilst it is scanning for stations.
The stations which are already stored in memory will be kept
there.
Notes:
zAny station which has the same frequency as the one stored in
memory will not be stored.
z If 40 stations have already been stored in memory, the scan will
be aborted. If you want to redo the ASPM operation, erase the
preset memory.
z If no station have been stored in memory, “END” will appear for
about 4 seconds.
z If the RDS signals are very weak, station names may not be
stored in memory.
z The same station name can be stored in different channels.
z In a certain area or during certain time periods, the station
names may temporarily be different.
Notes for RDS operation
If any of the following events occur, it does not mean that the
unit is faulty:
z “PS”, “NO PS” and a station name appear alternately, and the
unit does not operate properly.
z If a particular station is not broadcasting properly or a station
is conducting tests, the RDS reception function may not work
properly.
z When you receive an RDS station whose signal is too weak,
information like the station name may not be displayed.
z “NO PS”, “NO PTY” or “NO RT” will fl ash for about 5 seconds,
and then the frequency will be displayed.
Notes for radio text:
z The fi rst 8 characters of the radio text will appear for 4 seconds
and then they will scroll across the display.
z If you tune in to an RDS station which is not broadcasting any
radio text, “NO RT” will be displayed when you switch to the
radio text position.
z Whilst radio text data is received or when the text contents
change, “RT” will be displayed.
To recall stations in memory
To specify programmed types and select stations (PTY
search):
You can search a station by specifying the programme type (news,
sports, traffi c programme, etc. ... see page 17) from the stations
in memory.
1 Press the TUNER button on the remote control or TUNER/
AUDIO IN button repeatedly on the main unit to select TUNER
function.
2 Press the RDS PTY button on the remote control.
“SELECT” and “PTY TI” will appear alternately for about 6
seconds.
3 Within 6 seconds, press the PRESET (
or ) button to select
the programme type.
Each time the button is pressed, the programme type will
appear. If the button is held down for more than 0.5 seconds,
the programme type will appear continuously.
4 Whilst the selected programme type is fl ashing (within 6
seconds), press the RDS PTY button again.
After the selected programme type has been lit for 2 seconds,
“SEARCH” will appear, and the search operation will start.
Notes:
z If the display has stopped fl ashing, start again from step 2. If the
unit fi nds a desired programme type, the corresponding channel
number will lit for about 8 seconds, and then the station name
will remain it.
z If you want to listen to the same programme type of another
station, press the RDS PTY button whilst the channel number or
station name is fl ashing. The unit will look for the next station.
z If no station can be found, “NOTFOUND” will appear for 4
seconds.
If you select the traffi c programme:
If you select the traffi c programme (TP) in step 3, “TP” will
appear.
(This does not mean that you can listen to the traffi c information
at that time.)
When the traffi c information is broadcast, “TA” will appear.
