What is RDS?
RDS stands for Radio Data System and is a method of
transmitting data in FM radio signals. It was developed by
the European Broadcasting Union (EBU) and is available
in most European countries. Many FM stations use it these
days. In addition to displaying text information, RDS can
also help you find radio stations by type (e.g., news, sport,
rock, etc.).
The AV receiver supports four types of RDS information:
■ PS (Program Service)
When tuned to an RDS station that’s broadcasting PS
information, the station’s name will be displayed. Press-
ing DISPLAY will display the frequency for 3 seconds.
■ RT (Radio Text)
When tuned to an RDS station that’s broadcasting text
information, the text will be shown on the display as
described in the next section.
■ PTY (Program Type)
This allows you to search for RDS radio stations by type
(➔ 23).
■ TP (Traffic Program)
This allows you to search for RDS radio stations that
broadcast traffic information (➔ 23).
Note
• In some cases, the text characters displayed on the AV receiver
may not be identical to those broadcast by the radio station. Also,
unexpected characters may be displayed when unsupported
characters are received. This is not a malfunction.
• If the signal from an RDS station is weak, RDS data may be
displayed intermittently or not at all.
When tuned to an RDS station that’s broadcasting text
information, the text can be displayed.
Displaying Radio Text (RT)
Note
• The message “Waiting” may appear while the AV receiver waits
for the RT information.
• If the message “No Text Data” appears on the display, no RT
information is available.
