October 2008 5300 ES Series Mobile Radio Operating Manual 3-11
General Operation
3.8 Radio Tune Test Mode
Entering Tune Test Mode on the 5300 ES radios is done by pressing <F2> during the
radio’s self test. If this button is pressed during the self test, the self test completes and the
“SERVICE” message is displayed.
The radio cycles through several informational displays, which are described in Table 3.1.
To stop a display, press <F2>. To continue displays, press the <F3> button. To quickly
cycle through the displays, continue to press <F3>. You cannot go back to displays that
have already been shown.
Upon completion of the information displays, the radio enters a menu mode. The default
option is the RF Test Mode, and the message, “RF TEST”, is displayed.
As there is only one other test mode, Control Top and Keypad Test Mode (displaying the
message “CH TEST”), pressing <F2> cycles between these two modes. Pressing the F1
allows the user to enter into the test mode that is currently displayed.
