2.5.4   Frequency Changes

At any time during the modification process, if you have made a mistake and do not wish to save the changes 
you  have  made, 

do  not  press  the  Menu/Execute  switch

;    simply  do  nothing  for  approximately  30  seconds,   

and the system will return to the normal operating mode or scroll to 

“R”

 and push the menu/Execute switch and 

select 

“NO”

 in the 

“SAVE SETTINGS?”

 window.

To change the FREQUENCY:

Operate the Menu/Execute switch until you get to the menu item you want to change see Figure 2.5 
for the sequence of menu options. The following display is for changing the downconverter frequency:

F = 8100.000

R

Pressing  the  Up/Down  switch down will toggle the display to:

F = 8200.000

R

By  using  the horizontal rocker switch the  cursor  can  be moved left or right .

F = 8200.000

R

NOTE: CHANGES DO NOT TAKE PLACE ON FREQUENCY UNTIL YOU GO TO 
THE SAVE MENU AND INDICATE YOU WANT TO SAVE THE CHANGES.

When the display indicates the value desired you can push the Menu/Execute switch to get to the next item:

G = +30

R

OR you can scroll to “R”, push the Menu/Execute switch to get to:

SAVE SETTINGS?

Y N

Selecting 

Y

 will save the new settings. Selecting 

N

 will revert to the previous settings.

Pushing the Menu/Execute switch then takes you to this:

F = 8150.125  G=30

REF = INT

Figure 2.5 gives the menu items and how to make changes.
