• Pressing a function key or the [ENTER] key (which is considered to be
[F0]) causes the 8525 to transmit.
• Completing data entry into a “transmit on entry” field also causes the
8525 to transmit.
There are several ways to configure the 8525/8530 vehicle-mount to complete a data field:
• Pressing [ENTER] after entering data.
• Pressing a function key after entering data.
• Pressing an arrow key after entering data.
• Filling an auto-tab field.
