About RDS

This unit is equipped with RDS (Radio Data System), which brings a wide range of information from FM radio. 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 containing RDS data is tuned in, 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:

(PS → FREQUENCY → PTY → RT → CT)

• PTY (Programme type recognition)- The programme type is shown on the display window.
• RT (Radio text recognition)- The radio station's name is displayed on the display window.
• CT (Time controlled by the channel)- Enable the unit to receive the actual time and show it on the display window.
• PS (Programme Service name)- The programme title is displayed on the display window.

Notes

- 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.

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.

Additional Information

About MP3

• An MP3 file is audio data compressed by using the MPEG1 audio layer-3 file-coding scheme. We call files that have the ".mp3" file extension "MP3 files".
• The unit can not read an MP3 file that has not ".mp3" file extension.

MP3 Disc compatibility with this unit is limited as follows:

1. Sampling Frequency / 8 - 48kHz
2. Bit rate / 8 - 320kbps
3. CD-R physical format should be "ISO 9660"

4. If you record MP3 files using the software which cannot create a FILE SYSTEM, for example "Direct-CD" etc., it is impossible to playback MP3 files. We recommend that you use "Easy-CD Creator", which creates an ISO9660 file system.

5. File names should be named using 30 letters or less and must incorporate ".mp3" extension e.g. "*******.MP3".

6. Do not use special letters such as "/ : * ? " < > " etc.

7. Even if the total number of files on the disc have more than 1000, it will only be shown up to 999.

About MULTI SESSION

• This function recognizes the multi session disc according to a disc of CD-ROM type.
  ex) If there are MP3 files in the first session, the MP3 file in the first session is only played. If there are only MP3 files in the whole session, all of the MP3 files in the session are played. If there is Audio CD in the first session, only the Audio CD in the first session is played.
