Viking Portable 600 Radio Operating Manual 4-5
Radio-wide Features
When the menu mode is used, the <F1> and <F2> buttons become dedicated menu mode
control switches (see following illustration). The <F1> button is Back/Clear, and the
<F2> button is Menu Select/Enter. If the menu mode is disabled, these buttons can be
programmed for other functions.
Figure 4.1 Menu Mode Buttons
Only the enabled menu items which apply to the selected channel type are displayed. For
example, if a conventional channel is selected, only the enabled functions for conventional
channels are displayed.
When in the menu mode, messages continue to be received on the selected channel.
However, the display does not indicate who is calling. Pressing the PTT switch exits the
menu mode and keys the transmitter.
The menu mode operates as follows:
1 To select the menu mode, press the <F2> button. Up to three menu parameters are then
displayed as shown in the preceding illustration.
2 To scroll up or down through the menu parameter list, press the Up/Down buttons. The
selected parameter is indicated by a dark bar.
3 To display the available modes for a highlighted parameter, press the <F2> button. The
currently selected mode is indicated by an asterisk.
4 Press the Up/Down buttons to highlight the desired mode. Then press the <F2> button
to select that mode.
5 To step back to the previous level or exit the menu mode, press the <F1> (Back)
button.
