Use the following description with Figure 3-3, which shows the details of the main menu.
Menu item ... and its purpose
CHAN
Channel mode: the radio uses a set of preset parameters. Up to 200 sets of parameters
can be defined and stored in the Micom, where each set is assigned a channel number (1
to 200). You can use Figure 3-4
to find details on the selections available on the CHAN
menu.
FREQ
Frequency mode: you can select manually the frequency (free tune mode) and the other
parameters to be used. You can use Figure 3-5 to find details on the selections available
on the FREQ menu.
ALE
ALE mode: when you want to call other radio, the radio automatically sets up a link on
the best free frequency that can be found. You can also call specific radio sets, a group
of radio, or broadcast to all the radio sets. The sets of parameters needed for this
operation mode are stored under net numbers (1 to 20), the radio sets are identified by
addresses stored by the radio in a directory supporting up to 100 addresses.
SCAN
SCAN mode: when neither the ALE, nor the CCIR mode, is used, you can define a set
of channels to be scanned before starting a call. The scan parameters are always loaded
by the MRC together with the other operational parameters, and cannot be changed
using the Micom panel.
BIT
BIT mode: lets you check that the Micom is OK.
LOCK
Lock the radio to prevent unauthorized use. To lock and unlock, you enter a password.
PROG
Programming mode: lets you program (select and store) the required parameters. Refer
to Chapter 4 for details on the selections available on the PROG menu.
PSW

SPKR
