April 2001
Part No. 001-9800-203
The following function keys are used in the
Create/Edit System screen to perform special
functions:
F3 (Lookup Freq) - This key displays the applicable
channel table when programming a channel number.
With the channel table displayed, the cursor can then
be moved to the desired channel and F7 (Select Freq)
pressed to redisplay the screen and enter the high-
lighted channel number.
F4 (Edit Channels) - Moves the cursor to the channel
table at the bottom of the screen (LTR only).
F5 - (Edit System) - Moves the cursor to the system
information table at the top of the screen (LTR only).
F6 (Setup Groups) - Displays the group programming
screens shown in Tables 4-3 (LTR) and 4-4 (conven-
tional).
F7 (Group Options) - With conventional systems
only, displays the second Group Options screen shown
in Table 4-4 (two screens are required to program all
the conventional group parameters). Changing the
Assign (ASN) or alpha tag in one screen also changes
it in the other.
F8 (A/D Bank) - Each system must be linked to a
bank. Refer to Section 4.6.6 for more information.
Copy System
This screen is used to create a new system by
copying information from another. The system to be
copied is selected from a list and then the alpha tag for
the new system is entered. This function does not copy
anything to a disk file; it only copies to a new system
in the buffer.
Delete System
This screen is used to delete a current system.
The system to be deleted is selected from a list. This
function does not delete anything on disk; it only
deletes the selected system in the buffer.
4.6.6 CREATE/EDIT/DELETE BANK
Introduction
Although only high tier models have a bank
select feature, at least one bank must be created with
all models (see Section 3.5.2). The programmed
systems must then be assigned a bank. If a
programmed system is not linked to a bank, it is not
selectable and cannot be scanned.
The process of linking a system to a bank also
assigns the system number that is used to program the
low tier Channel Display table (see description which
follows) or is displayed when a high tier system is
selected. Therefore, first create a bank and then link
the programmed systems to that bank. More informa-
tion follows.
Create Bank
The Create Bank function is used to create a new
bank. As previously stated, at least one bank always
must be created. Banks are identified by an alpha tag
which can have up to eight characters. With low tier
models, if a bank already exists, another cannot be
created until the current bank is deleted (see “Delete
Bank” which follows).
After the bank alpha tag is entered, the Create/
Edit Bank screen is displayed. This screen is used to
edit information unique to a bank. This screen and the
parameters it programs are described in Table 4-2.
Edit Bank
The Edit Bank function is used to change parame-
ters of the previously created bank. The bank to be
edited is selected and the Create/Edit Bank screen is
then displayed (see preceding “Create Bank”
description).
Copy Bank
With high tier models which can have more than
one bank, this screen is used to create a new bank by
copying information from another bank.
