Traffic program station reception with RDS-EON

Radiotext

This is an RDS function which transmits text

from the radio station selected.

Depending on the radio station, these texts

will vary in content, e.g. short news reports,

program information, advertising.

For further information, refer to “Program-

ming with DSC – Radio”.

Switch traffic announcement

priority on/off

If the priority for traffic announcement pro-

grams is activated, “TA” will light up in the

display.

To switch the priority on or off:

• Press TA.

If you press TA while a message is being

broadcast, the message will be interrupted

for all operating modes for the duration of

this message only.

The unit will then switch back to its previous

status. The priority for all other traffic mes-

sages will remain active.

Please note that several buttons have no

function during traffic announcements.

Adjust the volume for traffic announce-

ments and the beep tone

Although this volume was preset at the fac-

tory, you can alter it using the DSC function

(see “Programming with DSC – TA VOL-

UME”).

Beep tone

When a traffic program station is activated

(”TA” in the display), you will hear a warn-

ing beep approx. 30 seconds after you leave

the reception area of the traffic program sta-

tion you are currently tuned into.

The abbreviation “EON” stands for En-

hanced Other Networks which means that

information is exchanged between the ra-

dio stations belonging to the same broad-

casting network.

Many FM broadcasters provide traffic mes-

sages for their service area at regular inter-

vals.

All traffic program stations transmit a spe-

cial carrier signal along with their programs,

which is decoded by your car radio. If this

signal is identified, “TP” will appear in the

display (Traffic Program).

In addition to these, there are also stations

which do not actually transmit traffic pro-

grams themselves, but by using RDS-EON

it is possible to receive the traffic messages

broadcast by another traffic program station

in the same radio network.

If you wish to have the priority for traffic an-

nouncements activated while listening to

one of these stations (e.g. NDR 3), “TA”

must appear in the display.

If a traffic announcement is broadcast, the

radio will automatically switch to the linked

traffic program station (in this case, NDR 2)

for the duration of the message and return

to the original program (NDR 3) afterwards.
