Radio Data System – RDS
RDS is a system which links specific network
transmitters together and is used, for example,
to assist motorists by setting the correct
frequency irrespective of the transmitter to
which the car occupants are listening or the
active audio source (e.g. CD). The system can
also be used for receiving traffic information
and for finding broadcasts of a specific type.
Radiotext, which is also a part of RDS, is used
by radio stations to send information regarding
broadcasts already in progress.
127(Certain radio stations feature neither
RDS nor specific parts of RDS broadcast possi-
bilities.
Automatic search for program
information - PI Seek
When listening to an RDS transmitter, various
information, such as traffic information, is
stored in the radio.
When a preselected RDS transmitter is later
selected, the radio updates the transmitter’s
RDS information. If the radio is in the boundary
area or just outside of the transmitter’s range,
the radio automatically searches for the
strongest possible transmitter of this station.
If there is no transmitter within "listening
distance", the radio becomes silent and "PI
SEEK PRESS EXIT TO CANCEL" is shown in
the display until a station is found.
If you press EXIT (1), the radio begins to play
the selected transmitter, but without updated
RDS information.
