Radio-wide Features
4.3 Feature Enable / Disable
One of the function buttons may be programmed to enable/disable certain features. These
features have binary ON/OFF states, and the programmed button toggles the feature to the
alternate state. Figure 4.2 identifies features that may be enabled or disabled using the
programmed button. One short beep indicates the feature is ON; two short beeps indicate
the feature is OFF.
Enter the feature you wish to use with function buttons or the menu. Features are exited
using function buttons or the Clear <F3> and Menu <F4>. Function button and Clear/
Cancel <F3> exit the feature without saving. Menu/Select <F4> exits the feature and
saves changes. Use the Left and Right buttons in ways that make sense for the specific
function.
4.4 Menu Mode
Most functions that can be controlled by an option button can also be controlled by the
menu mode. The functions that can be controlled by the menu mode are shown in Table
4.1. Functions can be controlled by both an option button and a menu parameter if desired.
