9.4 MENU

The menu function accesses features that are not available directly from the keypad. The

order and specific number of menu items available is configurable through programming.

Upon radio power up, the menu item at the beginning of the menu list will always be

displayed first. Subsequent access to the menu function will return the last menu item that

was shown in the display. To enter the menu mode, press MENU. The ramp control,

MENU, and CLEAR are used during the selection process. All of the selection mode rules

previously detailed apply to the menu item selection process with the exception of direct

access. The radio will continue to receive and transmit normally while in the menu function.

A new item is displayed by using the ramp control to scroll through the list in

increasing and decreasing order. The displayed menu item is made active by pressing

MENU.

After entering the menu selection mode, the following generic display format will appear.

M E N U

Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y

Line 1 indicates the radio is in the menu selection mode. Line 2 indicates the menu item

(YYYYYYYY) that is to be viewed or changed (some menu items provide radio information

and do not have changeable parameters).

An example of the menu item selection process and menu item parameter change is

detailed below for the contrast menu item.

1. Press MENU to enter the menu mode.

2. Press the ramp control until the display shows:

M E N U

CONTRAST

3. Press MENU. The contrast menu item is activated and the display will be similar to the

following:

CNTRST = X

Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y

Line 1 shows the active menu item and its current parameter setting (XXX). Line 2

shows the currently selected system or group name (YYYYYYYY).

4. The menu item's parameter setting shown in the display can now be changed by using

the ramp control to scroll through the list of parameter values. Once the desired

setting is reached, press MENU to store the value and return to the normal display. For

menu items that display radio information, use to scroll through a list of

informational displays. The menu items are listed in Table 9-4.
