CONTROLS (CONT’D)

SYS Momentary switch. The SYS (SYSTEM) button is

used to select system changes. System may be

incremented by pressing and releasing the SYS

button. Alternately, when the display shows the

System name, the CHANNEL/SEL buttons may be

used to increment or decrement the system selec-

tions. (NOTE: The radio may be programmed with

wrap around on the system selection; this would

allow the radio to switch from the highest to lowest

system with one change instead of ramping all the

way through the list.)

CHANNEL/SEL Ramp Switch. The CHANNEL/SEL button is

used to increment or decrement the current channel

selection. It is also used as described above to

increment/decrement the System. In conventional

mode, these buttons change the channel selection.

CLR Momentary switch. The CLR button is used to exit

from the menu operation, monitor a conventional

channel or end a special/individual call.

HOME/

EMERGENCY

Momentary switch. The HOME or EMER-

GENCY button is used to select a home system,

or channel. The radio may be programmed to revert

to a particular system or channel within the se-

lected or home system. It may also be programmed

to send an emergency message (GESTAR) when

pressed and held for approximately one second

(either on the selected system or on the Home

system).

FLEX KEYS

used menu selections quickly. They can also be

programmed as a HOME, External Alarm, Public

Address, T99 decode, and Scan add/delete.

messages to the user. The line contains eight Dot Matrix LED characters. The

7 status indicators are used to show the various operating conditions of the

radio.
