Instruction Manual

2-10
4 – Fast Guard Program
This command transfers the displayed main memory positions’ parameters to the Guard Memory position
according to the position of the G1/G2 front panel switch.
The selected Guard channel will now contain the information from the selected Main channel memory.
This feature may be disabled via Maintenance Command (Level 3) ‘4’.
‘ENTER’ – accepts this transfer.
‘ESC’ - abandons the transfer.
5 – Scan Mode: ON/OFF
This command allows the user to start and stop the Scan operation.
Select Scan and follow the command key with a number from 0 to 5, this will start scanning using the selected
scan list, if 0 was selected then scanning will be terminated.
NOTE: Scan operation automates the process of selecting pre-programmed channels that have been saved to
memory, it DOES NOT sweep the frequency band!
6 – PTT Timer: Enable/Disable
This command toggles the operation of the PTT timer. When ENABLED, the timer will stop the unit from
transmitting after the programmed time-out period, this protects against accidental PTT lockup. The user can
re-start the timer by releasing PTT for a moment.
!CAUTION! When DISABLED the PTT timer will not protect against continuous transmission.
The default is: PTT Timer ENABLED.
7 – Frequency: Scroll Mode
This command places the unit into frequency scroll mode, when in scroll mode the frequency may be changed
as follows:
2 (up arrow) – scroll frequency up in 2.5 kHz. steps.
8 (down arrow) – scroll frequency down in 2.5 kHz. steps.
4 (back arrow) – scroll frequency down in 1 MHz. steps.
6 (forward arrow) – scroll frequency up in 1 MHz. steps.
‘ENTER’ – accepts this entry.
‘ESC’ - abandons the entry.
8 – Rx/Tx Simplex/Split Pair Operation
This command allows you to quickly change the transmit frequency, when operating on a split pair
(repeater/semi-duplex mode), to the receive frequency to allow direct communications.
ie/ If you are transmitting on 152.000 MHz and receiving 152.555 MHz, press 8 (in command level 2) to
transmit on 152.555 MHz.
To return to the split pair condition, you must recall the memory channel again.
‘ENTER’ – accepts this entry.
‘ESC’ - abandons the command and returns to the normal operating mode
