PAGE 60 AR5000 OPERATING MANUAL
Notes: You can enter a PASS frequency down to the
100kHz order only (as a PASS frequency is valid within a
range of ± 10kHz). The PASS frequency can be entered
anywhere within The AR5000’s receive range but it must
be noted that the search rate will slow down if the pass
frequency is entered outside of the selected program
search range as the AR5000 microprocessor will need to
check pass frequencies even if they are outside of the
program search range. It is advisable not to enter pass
frequencies outside of the selected program search range
for this reason.
13-3 Editing pass frequencies
It is also possible edit the contents of the pass list once
frequencies have been registered. This can be useful
when reviewing the contents of the pass list, to allow
changing of frequencies slightly or over-writing those not
required when you have used all 100 and want to add
another!
