5.1 GETTING STARTED
To access the main-menu of the VSI-Pro, simultaneously hold down the “Down” & “Up” buttons and press and
release the “Reset” button and then release the “Down” & “Up” buttons. This will take you to the main programming
menu. To navigate through this menu, simply use the “Down” and “Up” buttons to position the cursor in front of the
desired function, then press “Set” to access that function.
If you have difficulty entering the main-menu, try the following procedure exactly. With your left thumb, lightly press
and hold in the two buttons to the left (Up & Down). While holding down these buttons, press and release the “Reset”
button with your right thumb. Then release the other buttons.
5.3 REGISTER SELECT
To select a specific register, press the “Up” or “Down” button to move the cursor to “REGISTER SELECT“ and press “Set”.
The REGISTER SELECT menu will bring up a sub-menu consisting of registers shown in Figure 10-A. You can go to the
next or previous page by placing the cursor in front of “NEXT” or “PREVIOUS“ and then pressing “Set”. To select the
desired register, press the “Up” or “Down” button to move the cursor to that register and press “Set”. After selecting the
register, exit out of the REGISTER SELECT menu by pressing the “Up” or “Down” button to move the cursor to “EXIT” and
then pressing “Set”. In the main-menu, press “Reset” to activate the programing for that specific register. REGISTER
SELECT automatically formats the VSI-Pro to match your register’s communication settings. However, if you need to
change these settings, you can do so through the COMMUNICATION menu described later in this manual.

proceed with additional programming.
