RBDS
RBDS (Radio Broadcast Data System) transmits data to the radio which displays information such as
station identication, song artist, and song title.
RBDS service availability varies with areas. If RBDS service is not available in your area, the following
service is not available.
CT (Clock Time)
Some stations broadcast the time and date within the encoded RBDS signal. The clock time is
automatically adjusted when ‘CT’ is set to ‘ON’.
NOTE:
Stations broadcasting close to time zones may not broadcast the correct time in your particular area.
In this case, turn CT O and manually set the time.
PTY Function
PTY is the abbreviation for Program Type which is a code dening the type of program being broadcast
(e.g. News or Rock).
Then PTY options will display on the screen. To view more PTY options, touch the scroll bar and arrows
on the screen.
When one PTY option is touched (e.g. News), auto search for next available PTY by increasing tuning
frequency until the PTY of the next station matches the current. If no matched PTY has been found,
the unit will return to the original radio frequency.
