Traffic programme station reception with RDS-EON
Traffic announcement priority
on/off
If the priority for traffic announcement pro-
grammes is activated, “A” will light up in the
display.
To switch the priority on or off:
• Press the TA button.
If you press TA while a message is being
broadcast, this message will be interrupted.
The unit will then switch back to the previ-
ous mode. The priority for other traffic mes-
sages remains active.
Please note that several buttons have no
function while a traffic announcement is
broadcast.
Warning beep
If you leave the reception area of the traffic
programme station currently tuned into, you
will hear a warning beep after approximate-
ly 30 seconds.
This alarm tone will also be emitted if you
press a preset button for a station which
does not send the traffic information signal.
- The radio will switch to the linked sta-
tion NDR2 for the duration of the
“POP” programme.
During CD operation, the set will also switch
to the programme offering the selected PTY
within the broadcasting network.
After the PTY programme has ended the
system will switch back to the previous
mode (radio or CD).
Note:
As already mentioned, these functions are
only supported by a limited number of RDS
stations at the present time.
The abbreviation “EON” stands for En-
hanced Other Networks, which means that
information is exchanged within a radio net-
work.
Many FM radio stations provide their serv-
ice area with traffic messages at regular in-
tervals.
Along with their programmes, all traffic pro-
gramme stations transmit a special carrier
signal, which is decoded by your car radio.
If this signal is identified, “T” will appear in
the display (Traffic programme).
In addition to these, there are also stations
which do not actually transmit traffic infor-
mation themselves, but by using RDS-EON
it is possible for them to forward the traffic
messages broadcast by another traffic pro-
gramme station in the same radio network.
If you want to have the priority for traffic
announcements activated while listening to
one of these stations (e.g. NDR3), “A” must
appear on the display panel.
If a traffic announcement is broadcast, the
radio will automatically switch to the linked
traffic programme station (in this case,
NDR2) for the duration of the message and
return to the original programme (NDR3)
afterwards.
