1.3.2 Command Types
There are two basic types of commands: inherent, and interactive:
Inherent commands
These are simple 'one-touch' commands, they do not need any further input from the user.
Example: the display brightness control commands (up/down arrows, keys 2 & 8)
Interactive commands
These commands require further input from the user, and they must end as follows:
accept the entry and exit
abandon the entry and exit
Example: the 'Frequency' command requires that the user enter a frequency, before exiting.
1.3.3 Command Groups
The commands can be characterized as belonging to one of three groups:
Operating commands are those which perform a function directly related to the use of the radio.
Edit commands allow the user to Edit the RF channel parameters (frequency, mode etc).
Configuration commands affect how the radio operates, including how other commands work.
1.3.4 Command Reference
Throughout the manual the commands will be referred to by level and number to make it clear what
command is being referenced. The short form used is as follows:
Level - abbreviated as 'L' followed by a number, a dash separator, and a command number.
Examples:
The 'edit frequency' command is: level one, command number 7. So the short form is: L1-7. Since
under normal circumstances the transceiver is in level 1, to access the command simply press '7'.
Level two, command number 3 is shown as: L2-3. To get to this command you must first go to
level 2 (by pressing the '0' key), then enter the command key, '3'.
