It was developed by the European Broadcasting Union (EBU) and is available in most European countries. Many FM stations use it these days. In addition to displaying text information, RDS can also help you find radio stations by type (e.g., news, sport, rock, etc.). The AV receiver supports four types of RDS information: PS (Program Service) When tuned to an RDS station that's broadcasting PS information, the station's name will be displayed. Pressing DISPLAY will display the frequency for 3 seconds. RT (Radio Text) When tuned to an RDS station that's broadcasting text information, the text will be shown on the AV receiver's display. PTY (Program Type) This allows you to search for RDS radio stations by type. TP (Traffic Program) This allows you to search for RDS radio stations that broadcast traffic information (➔ page 40). Note • RDS works only in areas where RDS broadcasts are available. • In some cases, the text characters displayed on the AV receiver may not be identical to those broadcast by the radio station. Also, unexpected characters may be displayed when unsupported characters are received. This is not a malfunction. • If the signal from an RDS station is weak, RDS data may be displayed intermittently or not at all. ■ Displaying Radio Text (RT) Playback 1 Press RT/PTY/TP once. The RT information scrolls across the AV receiver's display. Note • The message "Waiting" may appear while the AV receiver waits for the RT information. • If the message "No Text Data" appears, no RT information is available. ■ Finding Stations by Type (PTY) You can search for radio stations by type. 1 Press RT/PTY/TP twice. The current program type appears on the AV receiver's display. 2 Use PRESET F/S to select the type of program you want. See the table shown later in this chapter. 3 To start the search, press ENTER. The AV receiver searches until it finds a station of the type you specified, at which point it stops briefly before continuing with the search. 4 When a station you want to listen to is found, press ENTER. If no stations are found, the message "Not Found" appears. En-39

What is RDS?
RDS stands for Radio Data System and is a method
of transmitting data in FM radio signals. It was
developed by the European Broadcasting Union
(EBU) and is available in most European countries.
Many FM stations use it these days. In addition to
displaying text information, RDS can also help you
find radio stations by type (e.g., news, sport, rock,
etc.).
The AV receiver supports four types of RDS
information:
PS (Program Service)
When tuned to an RDS station that’s broadcasting PS
information, the station’s name will be displayed.
Pressing
DISPLAY
will display the frequency for 3
seconds.
RT (Radio Text)
When tuned to an RDS station that’s broadcasting
text information, the text will be shown on the AV
receiver’s display.
PTY (Program Type)
This allows you to search for RDS radio stations by
type.
TP (Traffic Program)
This allows you to search for RDS radio stations that
broadcast traffic information (

).
Note
• RDS works only in areas where RDS broadcasts are
available.
• In some cases, the text characters displayed on the AV
receiver may not be identical to those broadcast by the
radio station. Also, unexpected characters may be
displayed when unsupported characters are received. This
is not a malfunction.

If the signal from an RDS station is weak, RDS data may be
displayed intermittently or not at all.
