* The Factory Default setting for all BFM Microphone types is “Serial”
** Since BGM is normally broadcast it is convenient to prevent it from showing a “Busy”
condition on the microphone.
*** It is possible to increase the offset to allow messages above 8 to be selected

e.g. instead of messages 1 to 8 the unit can be set for messages 4 to 12.
