MR20PA User's Manual - page 10 8 SELECT · Beep (when you press a button): ON/OFF · Clock On (determines if clock will be displayed when radio is turned off): ON/OFF · LCD1/2 (LCD brightness level): 1/2 RDS Radio Settings · SEEK RDS/ALL This setting determines the behavior of the radio SEEK function when RDS tuning mode. If ALL is selected, the SEEK function will stop at both RDS and nonRDS stations. Otherwise, it will only seek RDS stations. RDS/ALL · TA (Traffic Alert) SEEK/ALARM When TA mode is on, the radio monitors the Public Information channel which is piggy-backed on the FM channel you are currently enjoying. If such a channel is not detected or is weak the tuner will SEEK another PI channel and monitor it. ( This is the TA SEEK setting). If ALARM setting is chosen, if a signal is insufficiently strong, instead of monitoring an alternate station for PI information, the radio will produce a double beep (alarm) and silence itself, and display "LOST TP TA. " TA SEEK/ALARM · TA VOLUME This setting determines the volume level of the Traffic Alerts as they play. 0-40 (18 is default) · REG ON/OFF This setting determines the behavior of the radio reception when AF (Alternate Frequency) mode is on. The AF system continuously monitors the signal strength of a station and compares it with other stations on the same network. If another station is stronger, it changes to that station. Since sometimes in different regions stations on the same network will play different programs, the AF system can interrupt the current program. For information on assigning using the PTY function, please see page 17 of this manual. 17 AS/PS (Automatic preset setup, preset scan function) When pressed and held for several seconds, the tuner will search and store the first six strong stations as presets in the current radio band.
