R.D.S. (Radio Data System) (Except for some areas)
RDS is a system which transmits useful information (digital data) for FM broadcasts together with the broadcast signal. Tuners and receivers designed for RDS reception can extract the information from the broadcast signal for use with various functions such as automatic display of the station name.
This unit is equipped with the following functions utilizing RDS data :

CD, MD or TAPE playback may also be started. As long as the unit is ON, the unit is always ready for the reception.
When one of the stations of the network of the station received in 3 starts broadcasting the program contents selected in 2, that station will be received automatically. At this time, Tape playback will stop and CD or MD playback will pause. However, external equipment (AUX) will remain as it is. When the unit is OFF or during recording (including dubbing), the EON function does not operate. When the transmission of the selected program contents ends in case of automatic reception with the EON function, return will be made to the status directly before operation of the EON function. When CD, MD or TAPE playback has been interrupted, it will be continued from the point of interruption.
In case of waiting for information with an RDS station without EON function
When there is no EON display with the operations of steps 3 and 4 and the desired information is selected in advance, waiting for the desired information will be done only with the presently received RDS station.
In regard to TP (Traffic Program) indicator
When the TP indicator is lit, this indicates that the station or another station in the same network is broadcasting traffic information. Even without an EON reservation, traffic information can be heard from the station when TP indicator is lit for the presently received station.
