RDS is a system which transmits useful informa-

tion (digital data) for FM broadcasts together

with the broadcast signal. Tuners and receivers

designed for RDS reception can extract the in-

formation from the broadcast signal for use with

various functions such as automatic display of

the station name.

R.D.S. (Radio Data System) (Except for some areas)

This unit is equipped with the following functions utilizing RDS data :

PTY (Program Type Identification) Search : flThe tuner automatically searches for a station which iscurrently broadcasting a specified program type (genre).

PS (Program Service Name) Display :When an RDS broadcast is received, the station name isautomatically displayed.

The “RDS” indicator lights up when an RDS broad-cast (signal) is received.

÷ Some functions may not be provided or be givendifferent names depending on countries or ar-eas.

Before using RDSFor reception of RDS stations, the auto presetting function must be used to preset the stations. With the auto

presetting function, RDS stations are preset with priority. “NO DATA” will be flashed when a station is not

preset by auto presetting.

Symptoms related to MD standardSymptom

÷ More than 255 tracks (track No. 256 or more) cannot be recorded. (Theremay be also cases in which recording is impossible while the track numberis less than 256.)In such a case, the REMAIN time display shows “0:00”.

÷ When the remaining time of the entire disc is less than 12 sec, theremaining time indication on the display becomes “0:00”. When the totaltime of the deleted tracks exceeds 12 sec, the display changes to therecordable time.

÷ When a short track is deleted on a repeatedly edited disc, the remainingtime may not increase.

÷ Connection of the track resulting from edit processing may not bepossible.

÷ As recording is executed with 2 sec. as the minimum unit, the display timemay not coincide.

÷ This derives from the restriction in the MD system standard and not amalfunction.

÷ Depending on the contents of the recorded source (CD etc.), the tracknumbers may not be assigned correctly.

÷ When a new recordable MD (with nothing recorded) is inserted,“READING” is displayed longer than usual.

÷ Monaural recording and stereo recording are executed according todifferent formats. This is not a malfunction.

÷ The title recording area is used in units of 7 characters, so that input of1792 characters may not be possible.

“DISC FULL” is displayed while the disc stillhas a remaining recordable time.

The possible recording time does not increaseeven when a short track is erased.

Tracks can not be connected.
