Switching to broadcast program of
your choice temporarily
Another convenient RDS service is called “Enhanced Other
Networks.”
This allows the receiver to switch temporarily to a broadcast
program of your choice (TA, NEWS, and/or INFO) from a different
station except in the following case:
• The Enhanced Other Networks mode only works when
receiving an FM station with the Enhanced Other Networks
code.
Before you start, remember...
The Enhanced Other Networks function is only applicable to
preset FM stations.
Press TA/NEWS/INFO repeatedly until the
program type you want appears on the display.
• Each time you press the button, the program type(s) change,
and the corresponding indicator(s) light up as follows:
TA: Traffic Announcement in your area.
NEWS: News.
INFO: Program the purpose of which is to impart advice in the
widest sense.
How the Enhanced Other Networks function actually works:
If another FM station starts broadcasting the program type
you have selected while you are listening to an FM station
The receiver automatically switches to the station. The
indicator of the received program type starts flashing.
‘
When the program is over, the receiver goes back to the
station previously tuned in, but still remains in Enhanced Other
Networks standby mode. The indicator of the received program
type stops flashing and remains lit.
If the station currently tuned in starts broadcasting the
program type you have selected
The receiver continues to receive the station, but the indicator
of the received program type starts flashing.
‘
When the program is over, the indicator of the received
program type stops flashing and remains lit, but the receiver
remains in Enhanced Other Networks standby mode.
To stop listening to the program selected by Enhanced Other
Networks
Press TA/NEWS/INFO repeatedly again so that the program type
(TA/NEWS/INFO) indicator goes off from the display. The receiver
exits from Enhanced Other Networks standby mode and goes
back to the previously selected station.
When an emergency broadcast (Alarm ! signal) is sent from
an FM station
The receiver automatically tunes in to the station except in the
following cases:
• When you are listening to non-RDS Networks—all AM (MW)
stations, some FM stations and other sources.
• When the receiver is in standby mode or TV Direct mode.
While receiving an emergency broadcast, “Alarm !” appears on
the display.
The TEST signal is used for equipment test—whether it can
receive the Alarm ! signal correctly
The TEST signal makes the receiver work in the same way as the
Alarm ! signal does. If the TEST signal is received, the receiver
automatically switches to the station broadcasting the TEST
signal.
While receiving the TEST signal, “TEST” appears on the display.
NOTES
• Enhanced Other Networks data sent from some stations may
not be compatible with this receiver.
• Enhanced Other Networks does not function for some FM
stations with RDS service.
• While listening to a program tuned in by the Enhanced Other
Networks function, the station does not change even if another
network station starts broadcasting a program of the same
Enhanced Other Networks data.
• While listening to a program tuned in by the Enhanced Other
Networks function, you can only use the TA/NEWS/INFO and
DISPLAY.
CAUTION:
If the stations alternate intermittently between the station tuned by
the Enhanced Other Networks function and the currently tuned
station, press TA/NEWS/INFO repeatedly to cancel the Enhanced
Other Networks function.
If you do not press the button, the currently tuned station is
received finally, and the indication of the Enhanced Other
Networks data type flashing on the display disappears.
