MENU SETUP
WHAT IS A MENU?
Many functions on this transceiver are selected or
configured via a software-controlled Menu instead of
physical controls on the transceiver.
Once familiar with
the Menu system, you will appreciate the versatility it
offers.
No longer is the number and complexity of
features restricted by the physical controls and
switches on the front panel.
MENU A/ MENU B
The transceiver has two menus.
These menus are
called Menu
A
and Menu
B.
The menus contain
identical functions; however, each menu can be
configured independently.
For example, you may enjoy two different kinds of
operating activities but you like to configure the
transceiver differently for each activity.
Menu
A
could
be configured with one set of transmit signal
characteristics, DSP settings, programmable buttons,
frequency steps, etc.
Menu
B could be configured
completely differently.
By switching from Menu
A
to
Menu
B, you could instantly change Menu
configuration and button assignment to suit your
current operating style.
Or, two operators may share a
single transceiver.
By dedicating one Menu per
operator, each would always enjoy the best
configuration.
Note:
The COM communication parameter setting in Menu No. 35
is shared by Menu A and Menu B.
