Programmable Features
Any reference in this manual to a control that is
“preprogrammed” means that the control must be programmed
by a dealer or qualified radio technician using the radio's
programming software, in order to assign a feature to that
control.
The programmable buttons can be programmed as shortcuts to
radio functions or preset channels/groups depending on the
duration of a button press:
Press Pressing and releasing rapidly.
Long press Pressing and holding for the preprogrammed
duration (between 0.25 seconds and 3.75 seconds).
Hold down Keeping the button pressed.
