s Notes on playing a source encoded with DTS
If DATA ERROR appears on the display while playing an LD source encoded with DTS, stop playback and turn the player off and then on again. If the digital output data of the player has been processed in any way, you may not be able to perform DTS decoding even if you make a digital connection between this unit and the player. If you play an LD source encoded with DTS and set the input mode to ANALOG, there will be the noise of an unprocessed DTS signal. When you want to play a DTS source, be sure to connect the source to the digital input terminal and set the input mode to AUTO or DTS. If you switch the input mode to ANALOG while playing a source encoded with a DTS signal, this unit reproduces no sound. If you play a source encoded with DTS and set the input mode to AUTO, there will be a short noise at first while the unit recognizes the DTS signal and turns on the DTS decoder. This is not a malfunction, and can be avoided by setting the input mode to DTS beforehand. In addition, if you continue to play a source encoded with DTS with the input mode setting left to AUTO, this unit automatically switches to the DTS-decoding mode to prevent noise from being generated during subsequent operation. (The t indicator lights up on the display.) The t indicator will flash immediately after playback of a source encoded with DTS has finished. Only a source encoded with DTS can be played back while this indicator is flashing. If you want to play a normal PCM source soon, set the input mode back to AUTO.

Hold down MEMORY for about three seconds. The preset number, the MEMORY and AUTO indicators flash. After about five seconds, automatic preset tuning begins from the frequency currently displayed toward the higher frequencies.

Flashes

Received stations are sequentially stored as A1, A2. A8. If more than 8 stations have been tuned, they are stored as preset station numbers in other groups (B, C, D and E) in that order. Memory back-up The memory back-up circuit prevents the stored data from being lost when this unit is set in the standby mode. If, however, the power cord is disconnected from the AC power outlet or the power is cut for more than one week, the memory will be erased. If so, store the stations again by using preset tuning methods.

RECEIVING RDS STATIONS

RDS (Radio Data System) is a data transmission system by FM stations in many countries. Stations using this system transmit an inaudible stream of data in addition to the normal radio signal. RDS data contains various information such as PI (Program Identification), PS (Program Service name), PTY (Program Type), RT (Radio Text), CT (Clock Time), EON (Enhanced Other Networks), etc. The RDS function is carried out among the network stations.

Changing the RDS Mode

The four modes are available in this unit for displaying RDS data. When an RDS station is being received, PS, PTY, RT and/or CT mode indicators that correspond to the RDS data services offered by the station light up on the display. Press RDS MODE/FREQ repeatedly to change the display mode among the RDS data offered by the transmitting station in the order shown below. Illumination of the red indicator next to the RDS mode indicator shows that the corresponding RDS mode is now selected.

Description of RDS Data

This unit can receive PI, PS, PTY, RT, CT, and EON data when receiving RDS broadcasting stations.
When an RDS station is being received, do not press RDS MODE/FREQ until one or more RDS mode indicators light up on the display. If you press the button before the indicators light up on the display, the mode cannot be changed. This is because the unit has not yet received all of the RDS data on the station. RDS data not offered by the station cannot be selected. The RDS data service cannot be utilized by this unit if the received signal is not strong enough. In particular, the RT mode requires a large amount of data to be received, so it is possible that the RT mode may not be displayed even if other RDS modes (PS, PTY, etc.) are displayed. RDS data cannot sometimes be receive under poor reception conditions. If so, press TUNING MODE so that the AUTO indicator goes off from the display. Although the reception mode is changed to monaural by this operation, when you change the display to RDS mode, RDS data may be displayed. If the signal strength is weakened by external interference during the reception of an RDS station, the RDS data service may be cut off suddenly and.WAIT will appear on the display.

0106V596RDS31-34_EN 32 9/29/0, 10:08 AM

EON Function

This function uses the EON data service on the RDS station network. If you simply select the desired program type (NEWS, INFO, AFFAIRS or SPORT), the unit automatically searches for all preset RDS stations that are scheduled to broadcast a program of the required type and switches from the station being currently received to the new station when the broadcasts starts.
Press EON repeatedly to select the desired program type (NEWS, INFO, AFFAIRS or SPORT). The selected program type name indicator lights up on the display.
This function can only be used when an RDS station that offers the EON data service is being received. When such a station is being received, the EON indicator lights up on the display.
If a preset RDS station of the selected program type starts broadcasting, the unit will automatically switch from the program being currently received to that program. The program type name indicator flashes.
Make sure that the EON indicator lights up on the display. If the EON indicator does not light up, tune in to another RDS station so that the EON indicator lights up.
When broadcasting of the required program ends, the previously received station (or another program on the same station) is recalled.
Press EON repeatedly until no program type name lights up on the display.

RECORDING A SOURCE ON TAPE, MD OR VIDEO CASSETTE
Recording adjustments and other operations are performed from the tape deck, MD recorder or VCR. Refer to the instructions for these components.
If a tape deck or MD recorder is being used for recording, you can monitor the sounds being recorded by pressing TAPE/MD MON / EXT. DECODER (or TAPE/MD).
The DSP program and the setting of VOLUME, BASS, TREBLE and BALANCE have no effect on the material being recorded. Composite video and S video signals pass independently through this units video circuits. Therefore, when recording or dubbing video signals, if your video source component is connected to provide only an S video (or only a composite video) signal, you can record only an S video (or only a composite video) signal by your VCR. A source connected to this unit only through the digital terminals cannot be recorded by the tape deck, MD recorder or VCR connected to this unit. A source connected to the EXTERNAL DECODER INPUT terminals of this unit cannot be recorded. Check the copyright laws in your country to record from records, CDs, radio, etc. Recording of copyrighted material may infringe copyright laws.

Ideal for precisely reproducing the sound of the newest multi-track films. The sound field is made to be similar to that of the newest movie theaters, so the reverberations of the sound field itself are restrained as much as possible. The data for the sound field of an opera house are used for the front presence, so the threedimensional feeling of the sound field is emphasized, and dialog is precisely oriented on the screen. By using the data for the sound field of a concert hall on the surround sound field, powerful reverberations are generated. You can enjoy watching action, adventure movies, etc. with strong presence.
This program is for reproducing sounds on a multi-track film, and is characterized by a soft and extensive sound field. The front presence of the sound field is relatively narrow. It spatially spreads all around and toward the screen, restraining echo effect of conversations without losing clarity. For the surround sound field, the harmony of music or chorus sounds beautifully in a wide space at the rear of the sound field.
