AUDIO-VIDEO
What is RDS? RDS station following T r a f fi c i n f o r m a t i o n f u n c t i o n
Your radio automatically checks
and selects the best frequency
for the radio station to which it is
tuned (if the station broadcasts on sev-
eral transmitters or frequencies).
The frequency of a radio station covers
approximately 30 miles (50 km). The
change from one frequency to another
explains the loss of reception during a
journey.
If the station to which you are listening
does not have several frequencies in
the region in which you are currently lo-
cated, you can deactivate the automatic
frequency following.
Radio Data System (RDS) func-
tion on the FM waveband permits:
- tuning to the same station while travelling through different regions
(if the transmitters of this station
cover the area through which you
are travelling),
- t e m p o r a r y t u n i n g t o t r a f fi c i n f o r m a - tion announcements,
- display of the name of the station, etc...
Most FM stations use RDS.
These stations transmit non-audible
data in addition to their programmes.
The data transmitted in this way allows
you access to various functions, mainly
displaying of the name of the station,
t e m p o r a r y t u n i n g t o t r a f fi c i n f o r m a t i o n
announcements or automatic station
following.
RDS allows you to continue listening to
the same station by means of the fre-
quency following. However, in certain
conditions, this RDS frequency following
cannot be provided throughout the coun-
try. Radio stations do not cover the whole
country, which explains the loss of recep-
tion of the station during a journey. T h e T r a f fi c P r o g r a m ( T P ) f u n c t i o n
permits automatic and temporary
switching to an FM station broad-
c a s t i n g t r a f fi c i n f o r m a t i o n .
The radio station or the source that you
are listening to at this point is paused.
O n c e t h e t r a f fi c i n f o r m a t i o n h a s e n d e d ,
the system switches back to the radio
station or the source that you were lis-
tening to initially.
Regional following mode Some stations are organised in
a network.
In different regions, they broad-
cast different or shared programmes
depending on the time of day.
You can follow:
- a regional station only,
- the entire network, with the possibility that you will be listening to a different
programme. Programme types
Some stations offer the option
of listening to a themed type of
programme as a priority, select-
ed from the list available below:
