2.2.1 Programming Guide

• The channel to be edited depends on the position of the MN/GD and the G1/G2 front

panel switches. Table 2-1 below shows the commands divided into command levels: one,

two, three, and four.

• Radio’s default Command/Operator Level 1 is the only command level not displayed in

the 4

character position on the lower row of the display.

• To step through the Command Level, press the

key (refer to Table 2-1). The radio

defaults back to the command level 1 in approximately 5 seconds.

the radio only, the radio may not respond in real time, or as expected when the Maintenance

(Level 4) is enabled!
