EN06-09.KS-LX200R[E]f 8/30/00, 10:05 AM910 ENGLISH RDS OPERATIONS What you can do with RDS EON RDS (Radio Data System) allows FM stations tosend an additional signal along with their regularprogramme signals. For example, the stations sendtheir station names, as well as information aboutwhat type of programme they broadcast, such assports or music, etc.Another advantage of RDS function is called “EON(Enhanced Other Networks).” The EON indicatorlights up while receiving an FM station with the EONdata. By using the EON data sent from a station,you can tune into a different station of a differentnetwork broadcasting your favorite programme ortraffic announcement while listening to anotherprogramme or to another source such as tape.By receiving the RDS data, this unit can do thefollowing:• Tracing the same programme automatically(Network-Tracking Reception)• Standby Reception of TA (Traffic Announcement)or your favorite programme• PTY (Programme Type) search• Programme search• And some other functions Tracing the same programme automatically (Network-Tracking Reception) When driving in an area where FM reception is notgood, the tuner built in this unit automatically tunesinto another RDS station, broadcasting the sameprogramme with stronger signals. So, you cancontinue to listen to the same programme in itsfinest reception, no matter where you drive. (Seethe illustration on the next page.)Two types of the RDS data are used to makeNetwork-Tracking Reception work correctly — PI(Programme Identification) and AF (AlternativeFrequency.)Without receiving these data correctly from the RDSstation you are listening to, Network-TrackingReception will not operate.To use Network-Tracking Reception, press andhold TP RDS (Traffic Programme/Radio DataSystem) for more than 1 second. Each time youpress and hold the button, Network-TrackingReception modes change as follows:Mode 1The AF indicator lights up but the REG indicatordoes not.Network-Tracking Reception is activated withRegionalization set to “off.”Switches to another station within the same networkwhen the receiving signals from the current stationbecome weak.• In this mode, the programme may differ from the onecurrently received.Mode 2Both the AF indicator and the REG indicator light up. Network-Tracking Reception is activated withRegionalization set to “on.”Switches to another station, within the samenetwork, broadcasting the same programme whenthe receiving signals from the current stationbecome weak.Mode 3Neither the AF indicator nor the REG indicator lights up. Network-Tracking Reception is deactivated.Note:If a DAB tuner is connected and Alternative Reception(for DAB services) is activated, Network-TrackingReception is also activated automatically. On the otherhand, Network-Tracking Reception cannot bedeactivated without deactivating Alternative Reception.(See page 33.)Mode 1 Mode 2 Mode 3AF indicatorREG indicator EN10-14.KS-LX200R[E]f 8/30/00, 10:32 AM1011 ENGLISH The same programme can be received on different frequencies.

We recommend that you use DAB (Digital Audio Broadcasting) tuner KT-DB1500 with your unit. If you have another DAB tuner, consult your JVC IN-CAR ENTERTAINMENT dealer.

• Refer also to the Instructions supplied with your DAB tuner. What is DAB system? DAB is one of the digital radio broadcasting systems available today. It can deliver CD quality sound without any annoying interference and signal distortion. Furthermore, it can carry text, pictures and data. In contrast to FM broadcast, where each programme is transmitted on its own frequency, DAB combines several programmes (called “services”) to form one “ensemble.” With the DAB tuner connected with this unit, you can enjoy these DAB services. Tuning into an ensemble and one of the services A typical ensemble has 6 or more programmes (services) broadcast at the same time. After tuning into an ensemble, you can select a service you want to listen to.

Select the DAB tuner (DAB1–3).

• Press and hold SOURCE (BAND) repeatedly to select the DAB band number (DAB1, DAB2 or DAB3.) Note: This receiver has three DAB bands (DAB1, DAB2, DAB3.) You can use any of them to tune into an ensemble.

Start searching an ensemble. When an ensemble is received, searching stops. To stop searching before an ensemble is received, press the same button you have pressed for searching.

What you can do more with DAB Tracing the same program automatically (Alternative Reception) You can keep listening to the same program

• While receiving a DAB service: When driving in an area where a service cannot be received, this unit automatically tunes in another ensemble or FM RDS station, broadcasting the same program.

• While receiving an FM RDS station: When driving in an area where a DAB service is broadcasting the same program as the FM RDS station is broadcasting, this unit automatically tunes into the DAB service. Note: When reception switches between DAB and FM, the listening volume level may increase or decrease inconveniently. This change in the volume level results from unequal audio injection levels at broadcaster site, but not from the malfunction of this unit.
