6.2 UNDERSTANDING THE MENU SYSTEM
Your TX-505 transmitter has a menu-driven configuration system that provides
you with a navigable interface for making various operational changes to both
the PRAIRIE BLASTER and TX-505. Throughout the scope of this manual you
will find many references to the Main Menu. It is important that you are familiar
with and understand how the menu system works.
The Main Menu can be accessed at any time while operating the TX-505
transmitter. To bring up the Main Menu simply press and hold the rotary
selector knob for 2-3 seconds. The normal screen will change to reveal the
Main Menu.
By default, any time you enter the Main Menu, the “TURN OFF
TRANSMITTER” option will be highlighted. The line that is highlighted will be
referred to as the
selected item
throughout this manual. You can move the
highlight bar using the rotary selector knob to change the selected item by
rotating the knob clockwise or counter-clockwise. A selected item can be
activated by pressing down on the rotary selector knob. In this case, with
“TURN OFF TRANSMITTER”
being the selected item, pressing the rotary scroll
knob down would result in the TX-505 turning off.
The Main Menu has sub-menus. These sub-menus will provide you with access
to making various system changes. The two main sub-menus are PRAIRIE
BLASTER CONTROL and TX505 CONFIG. Each one of these sub-menus has
other menu items inside.
The following chart will display the layout of the menu. The factory default value
of each setting will be NOTEd in bold:
