Entering Data
The DTMF keypad is required to enter alphanumeric data into the radio. In
addition, the type of character that displays depends on whether
ALPHA or
NUMBER is set in the display setting from the global (GLOBAL) submenu.
For numeric characters, a keystroke on the DTMF keypad displays the number
and moves the cursor to the right. When finished, press
Enter.
For alpha characters, press the key bearing the desired letter on the DTMF
keypad multiple times as required to show it on the display. Use the scroll
buttons to navigate across the line. When finished, press
Enter.
Scan Operation Menu
Access the main menu, scroll to highlight
SCAN, and press Enter. Choose to
enable or disable the scan function, select the scan mode, and enable or disable
priority channels. For scan mode, select
SCAN for normal scanning, SEARCH
for a scan of all frequencies programmed into the radio, and
ZONE for
scanning all zones in the zone scan list. Priority
(PRITY) scanning includes
none (
OFF), one (PR1), or two (PR2) predefined priority channels. Activity on
priority channels overrides all other modes except emergency.
Select Menu
Access the main menu, scroll to highlight
SELECT, and press Enter. Choose
programmed channels, zones, banks, and enable or disable the talk-around
mode.
ZONE permits an alternate zone selection, and BANK permits a bank
selection different than the one used in the programmed bank scan. Talk-
around (
TKRD), when on, forces the transmit frequency to an equal receive
frequency for a selected channel, useful for direct radio-to-radio
communication when a repeater is unavailable.
