The Home Page
The HOME PAGE is the primary operational page of the P-2000. The HOME PAGE becomes visible when the
P-2000 is ready for user input, immediately after the power up and initialization sequences have completed. When
viewing the HOME PAGE, Radio 1 (Also called FM1 or Transceiver #1) is always displayed on the top section.
Radio 2 is always displayed on the bottom section. All keypad-initiated operations are performed on the active
radio. The active radio easily distinguished by the bright blue color. The cursor is the square box that is located
either around the channel number or around the channel alpha identifier. It can be quickly toggled between the
channel number and alpha identifier using the Select Knob.
The following illustration is an example of what the HOME PAGE looks like.
The home page is divided into 3 areas – FM 1 information (top), FM 2 information (middle), and an area for system
status or system prompts (bottom). Notice in the picture above that the area in blue contains the information for FM
1. FM 1 will always be on the top. The names “FM1”, “FM2” can be changed in the system setup so that users can
change it to something more meaningful to their use such as “VHF” or “MAIN”.
ACT/SBY - The normal operating mode of the P-2000 is very similar to most ATC COMM radios. The user tunes
the Standby channel and then “flip-flops” it into the Active channel position using the TRANSFER button. The
radio is loaded with Active channel. The standby channel is ONLY used as a scratchpad for selecting the next
channel.
As an alternative to using the ACTIVE/STANDBY mode, the operator can press and hold the transfer button for 3
seconds and the STANDBY channel will disappear and now the user can tune the active channel directly. Either
mode can be selected in the System Setup Mode as the default mode of operation.
Notice the square box (CURSOR) around the SBY channel number 104. This indicates the system will tune the
Standby channel number. The cursor can be moved around the Alpha Identifier and channels will be selected
alphabetically.
STATUS LINE - The status line is located on the very bottom of the display and it is where the user will be
prompted to either input more information via the keypad. It is also used to display the Message Indictor used to
show there is a system message to view. In this case the user should put the MSG button to show the Message page.
