For example, the stationssend their station names, as well as informationabout what type of programme they broadcast,such as sports or music, etc.Another advantage of RDS function is called“Enhanced Other Networks.” By using theEnhanced Other Networks data sent from astation, you can tune in to a different station of adifferent network broadcasting your favoriteprogramme or traffic announcement whilelistening to another programme or to anothersource such as CD.By receiving the RDS data, this unit can do thefollowing:• Tracing the same programme automatically(Network-Tracking Reception)• Standby Reception of TA (TrafficAnnouncement) 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 isnot good, the tuner built in this unit automaticallytunes in to another RDS station, broadcasting thesame programme with stronger signals. So, youcan continue to listen to the same programme inits finest reception, no matter where you drive.(See the illustration on page 21.)Two types of the RDS data are used to makeNetwork-Tracking Reception work correctly—PI (Programme Identification) and AF(Alternative Frequency).Without receiving these data correctly from theRDS station you are listening to, Network-Tracking Reception will not operate. To use Network-Tracking Reception You can select the different modes of network-tracking reception to continue listening to thesame programme in its finest reception.When shipped from the factory, “AF” is selected.• AF: Network-Tracking Reception isactivated without Regionalization.With this setting, the unit switches toanother station within the samenetwork when the receiving signalsfrom the current station becomeweak.

Here is a basic procedure to make a CD-R including still images (pictures) and animations (movies) with Image Converter In this manual, we only explain how to export the files (still images and animations) into the memory built in this unit—step 5 below.

• For the other processes (from steps 1 to 4 below), refer to Image Converter manual (PDF files included in the “Manual” folder of the supplied CD-ROM). With Image Converter included in the supplied CD-ROM, you can edit your own favorite pictures and use them as your own opening screen, ending screen, and graphic screen while playing a source. Image retouching and editing Import of images Writing onto a CD-R Play back on your car audio KD-SH9104/ KD-SH9103/ KD-SH9102/ KD-SH9101 Install / Start the program Install Image Converter on your PC. Import the images Import the source images from the Image Converter CD-ROM or from other equipment like a digital camera or a digital video camera. Retouch and edit the images Retouch the images like trimming or adjusting the color, editing the animation effect, and adding the texts. Write your images onto a CD-R Write the animations or the still images you made with Image Converter using your CD-R writing software. You have to write the images you made onto a CD-R to enjoy the images on your Car Audio.

• To write data onto a CD-R, refer also to the instruction of your CD-R writing software. Enjoy the animations or the still images you made on your Car Audio Export the images to your JVC Car Audio from the CD-R you made. EN39-45SH9104[E_EX]f.p65 6/15/03, 10:07 PM3940 ENGLISH

Open the control panel.

Insert a CD-ROM with the files (images and animations) into the loading slot. The unit draws the disc, the control panel goes back to the previous position (see page 52).

• If the disc includes playable audio files such as MP3 tracks, playback starts automatically.

Press MODE (M) after the disc is detected. “Mode” appears on the display, then the number buttons and the 5 (up)/ ∞ (down) buttons start flashing.

Press number button 6 to show the download selection screen. Downloading images and animations Before starting the following procedure, prepare a CD-ROM including still images (pictures) and animations (movies).

• The supplied Image Converter CD-ROM includes sample images and animations, so you can use this disc as your first trial. IMPORTANT:

• Still images (pictures) should have <jml>, and animations (movies) should have <jma> as their extension code in their file names.

• Downloading a file can be done only while selecting “CD” as the source; on the other hand, deleting a file can be done while selecting any source.

• Before you download or erase the files, observe the following: – Do not download a file while driving. – Do not turn off the ignition key of the car while downloading or erasing a file.* – Do not detach the control panel while downloading or erasing a file.*

• If you do it, the file download or erasure will not be done correctly. In this case, perform the same procedure again.

• If you have already downloaded an animation for “PowerOn,” “PowerOff,” or “Movie,” downloading a new animation deletes the previously stored animation.

• It takes a long time for the unit to download an animation. – About 6 to 7 seconds for a still image (one frame). – About 3 to 4 minutes for an animation of 30 frames. – About 10 minutes for an animation of 90 frames.

• While a station (or service for the DAB tuner) is being tuned in by one of the Standby Reception modes such as TA, PTY, or Announcement, you cannot download or delete a file. On the other hand, while you are downloading or deleting a file, no Standby Reception mode will work to have this unit tune in a station (or service). It only works after download or deletion is over. EN39-45SH9101[E_EX]f.p65 03.2.27, 23:044041 ENGLISH Notes:

What is DAB system? DAB is one of the digital radio broadcastingsystems available today. It can deliver CDquality sound without any annoyinginterference and signal distortion.Furthermore, it can carry text, pictures, anddata.In contrast to FM broadcast, where eachprogramme is transmitted on its ownfrequency, DAB combines severalprogrammes (called “services”) to form one“ensemble.”In addition, each “service”—called “primaryservice”—can also be divided into itscomponents (called “secondary service”).With the DAB tuner connected with this unit,you can enjoy these DAB services.3456 M21
