Automatic PTY search

Automatic PTY search

When selecting a programme type, an automatic search may be activated in two ways.

1. Six programme types are allocated to the 6 programme keys (station selection keys). The preset allocation may be altered as required.
2. A programme type may be selected from the stored list and an automatic search may then be started.

The procedure is described below:

1. Reactivate PTY function

Press the TP for longer than 2 seconds until the message «PTY ON» appears on the display. Then the last type of programme selected will appear on the display (e.g. «POP»).

2. setting programme type

Give a short press to a key from 1 to 6. An automatic PTY search is started for the next station offering the selected programme type and the programme type is briefly displayed (e.g. "POP"), followed by the station code and the message "PTY".

Alternatively, press one of the keys A or B repeatedly until the required programme type appears on the display.

Press one of the keys A or B for more than 2 seconds until the automatic PTY search starts. La ricerca automatica PTY si arresta automaticamente sull'emittente successiva che offre il tipo di programma pre-selezionato, e mostra il tipo di programma (es. «POP») e la scritta «PTY».

NOTE: If no station offers the selected programme type, the last station tuned is played and the PTY function is abandoned.

3. deactivating the PTY function

This occurs automatically after about 10 seconds.
