This button is used to scan for stations of a selected program type. When active, the top of the display will show ʻPTYʼ. For normal tuning of the complete band, this button MUST be turned off.
Pressing this button once starts the tuner scanning only for the RDS program type selected (format or genre, eg Pop, Rock, News etc). When this button is pressed the RDS program type is temporarily displayed on screen. Note that it may take up to 20 seconds to scan for a station of the selected program type.
To select another RDS program type, press PTY button once and then any of the buttons numbered 1 to 6 once. Each button numbered 1 to 6 holds up to five RDS program types. The RDS program types can be accessed in two stages.
Press PTY and then press any of the buttons numbered 1 to 6 twice will yield two separate codes per button.
To access the other three codes per button, press PTY then PTY again, and then press any of the buttons numbered 1 to 6 from one to three times.
After pressing the buttons the tuner will scan and lock into the RDS code type station. If no RDS code type station exists the tuner will display PTY NONE (no program type).
To find the next station of the designated program type press one the TUNE buttons.
To turn off the PTY function, press the PTY button twice in succession. The PTY will disappear from the display.
13. AF/REG
AF( Alternative Frequency): Using this button allows the user to know if a searched station has an RDS signal strength strong enough to display the RDS information.
Press the AF button and ʻAFʼ will appear at the top of the display. If the current station (or stations) being scanned has a good RDS signal strength button ʻAFʼ will display in bold. If a poor RDS signal strength or no RDS is found for the tuned station the ʻAFʼ will flash. In this situation press the AF/REG button to turn off the flashing display.
REG (Regional mode): To activate this function, AF must be on (either bold or flashing in the display). Press this button for three seconds to switch to regional mode. The main display will show ʻREG ONʼ and ʻREGʼ will display at the top of the display. Tuning can now commence to find stations with weaker signals. Press the AF/REG button for 3 seconds to turn off this function. The display will show ʻREG OFFʼ momentarily
Pressing this button allows the tuner to lock into strong signal strength stations only.
14. USB Slot:
Connect a USB stick to this socket and the ʻUSB PLAYʼ sign will appear on the LCD. Remove the USB stick and the unit will revert to CD or Radio mode.
Important Note About Antenna Cabling.
75Ω coaxial antenna cable will provide better shielding than the supplied 300Ω FM cable, which will reduce noise and interference on the tuner. A better antenna, oriented toward the signal source (i.e. broadcast towers) will also improve signal reception. Connecting the GND connection to the earth on the PA amplifier will also reduce electrostatic noise, especially for AM reception.
About RDS Functions – Radio Data System.
Allows a tunerʼs LCD screen to display text information being transmitted by FM analogue radio stations. RDS technology is becoming more prevalent in Australia. RDS Codes: PTY – Program Type (ie Station format or music genre); PS – Station Name or ID; DATE or CLOCK TIME; TEXT – Song Title, Artist, Station slogan, traffic updates etc. If the FM radio station in question has not activated and/or is not broadcasting RDS data, then the RDS feature will show nothing, no scrolling text, time, station name etc.
