☞

After selecting a top-level menu screen, press the

ENTER

key

to display a related submenu or edit/selection screen:

•

Submenu Screens

are usually linked to other related

same-level screens. Pressing the

key

displays these

other related submenu screens.

Example:

With this submenu screen displayed:

pressing the

key

displays this related,

same-level submenu screen:

•

Edit/Selection Screens

always have a first line ending

with a “?”. Pressing the

key

changes the value/

choice enclosed by parenthesis (second line on screen).

Example:

With this submenu screen displayed:

pressing the

key

displays this related choice:

Use

arrow keys

to edit/change the value/choice enclosed

by parenthesis (examples shown above and below).

A choice can be changed by simply using the

and

keys

. Numerical values can be adjusted using the

and

keys

to select a digit, and

and

keys

to adjust its value.

With the desired value/choice displayed, press the

ENTER

key

to enter (store) it into the non-volatile transmitter mem-

ory. The previous screen will then re-appear.

NOTE:

You can always press the

ESC key

to abort saving

a new setting. The original setting will be retained.
