How does RDS work?
The RDS ( Radio Data System) function is al-
ways active for the radio navigation system. In
addition to their programming, the radio
stations also transmit RDS information that is
picked up by the RDS receiver in coded form.
The following functions are controlled by the
codes received:
– Program identification (PI code)
The radio is able to identify the station received
by its PI code.
– Program Service Name (PS code)
The PS code communicates the station name
that appears in the radio information display,
e.g. Radio 21.
Because a number of stations use the station
name for advertising purposes, you can select
a fixed name for the station in the “Audio set-
ting” menu (access the menu via the “Settings”
menu field).
– Alternate frequencies (AF code)
Because the stations on the FM waveband,
e.g. Radio 21, have a limited range of
reception, the programming is transmitted by
several different transmitters on different
frequencies. The AF code communicates all
the frequencies that come into question for the

RADIO NAVIGATION SYSTEM19
AUDIO
corresponding programming to the system.
RDS then ensures that the system
automatically tunes into the frequency with the
best reception for the station selected. This
process takes place virtually inaudibly.
–Traffic program code (TP code = Traf-
fic Program)
This code informs the system that the station
currently playing is a traffic information station.
“FM1 1 Radio 21 TP”, for example, will ap-
pear in the display.
– Traffic announcement code (TA code
= Traffic Announcement)
On the basis of the TA code, the system is able
to identify a traffic announcement. When the
radio or CD player is set to “very quiet”, the
system will automatically switch to the traffic
announcement in the programmed volume. At
the same time, the system will also switch to
mono reception. A message such as “TP1 NDR
2 Info TP” will appear on the screen.
– EON (Enhanced Information Concern-
ing Other Networks)
EON is an RDS function that ensures that all
the traffic information broadcast by a radio sta-
tion network is transmitted to the system.
Larger radio station networks, e.g. NDR, often
transmit different programming at the same
time, e.g. NDR 1, NDR 2, NDR 3, etc.
Regardless of the programming that you may
be listening to, the system will transmit any traf-
fic announcement broadcast by the other sta-
tions in the same station network. ExampleExample ExampleExample
Example
You have tuned the radio into NDR 3. If there
is a traffic announcement on NDR 2, the
system will automatically switch to this
frequency for the duration of the message.
After the end of the traffic announcement, the
system will switch back to NDR 3.
– Emergency announcements
Emergency announcement have priority over
all other functions. “Alarm” will appear on the
screen during an emergency message. Selecting a fixed RDS name
