meter has not been calibrated. (The SIG menu entry is used for this
purpose; it is described later.)

should see BAT (battery) flash briefly on the LED. Your approximate
power supply or battery voltage will then be displayed and will flash
slowly.
Return to frequency display mode by holding BAND + RIT

displayed.
Keyer
Plug a keyer paddle into the key jack (J3). The paddle must have a
stereo (2 circuit) plug. If you don't have a keyer paddle, you can still
test the DOT and DASH lines by unscrewing the shell from the
supplied stereo plug and inserting it in the KEY/PADDLE jack. Use a
clip lead or a screwdriver to short the tip or ring terminals to the
ground terminal to trigger dots or dashes.
Tap MENU and rotate the VFO knob to locate the INP menu
entry (CW input device selection). Hold EDIT to see the parameter.
Turning the VFO knob selects HND (hand key or external keyer),
PDN (paddle normal) or PDR (paddle reverse). Tap
MENU twice
to return to the VFO display.
The keyer speed may be varied from 8 to 50 WPM. Display the
keyer speed by holding SPEED, then adjust it using the VFO knob.
Tap any switch to return to the frequency display. (The KX1 does not
transmit when adjusting the keyer speed.)
While listening with headphones, test the keyer paddle to verify
that both dot and dash are working.
