a) TA SEEK mode:
When newly tuned station does not
receive
TP
seconds, the radio retunes to next
station which has not the same
station (PI) as the last station, but
has the TP information.
When TP information gets lost at the
current station for retune time which
is set by RETUNE SHORT or
RETUNE LONG, the radio start to
retune to next same PI station.
When PI station does not catch in
one cyclic search, the radio retunes
to next station with TP information.
Note: In TA SEEK mode, the current
station can be changed to the
completely different station because
the unit searches TP station when
the field (signal) strength of the
current station is very weak, or the
current station has no "TP" signal.
(The higher priority is TP rather than
PI.)
b) TA ALARM mode
When this mode is selected, any
automatic
activated. Only double beep sound
(ALARM) is output. So, in this mode,
the unit keeps the current station
anyhow. (The PI priority is higher
than TP.)
When newly tuned station doesn't
have TP information for 5 seconds,
beeps
come
information gets lost at the current
station for retune time, the beep
sound is output.
When newly tuned station has not
RDS
signal,
suppressed somewhat.

While AF switching is implemented in

out.
When
"PI
SEEK"
C201 station, AF can switch to 100
MHz, which is non genuine AF (where,
different PI with same AF) in short
"DIP".
If a car cruises that critical area back
5
and forth, an oscillation phenomenon
can be occurred, because the different
PI code can be received from 100
MHz with "XXX" PI.
The car radio has special procedure to
reduce even this kind of unavoidable
situation however there is a limit to be
escaped
perfectly.
In that serious case, 2 mode is
selectable as follows:
98
100
PI: C201
- PI SOUND mode:
When above different PI sound (DIP)
is heard once in a while, the DIP's
sound will be heard for a short time.
-
PI MUTE mode:
Under above same situation, a mute
sound will be heard for a short time.

When PI information gets lost at the
current station for retune time which
is set by RETUNE SHORT (30 sec.)
or RETUNE LONG (90 sec.), the
radio start to retune to next same PI
station.

MASK: DPI/ALL
MASK DPI mode: masked only the
AF which has Different PI (DPI).
MASK ALL mode: masked the AF
