pulled out position so that both voice and
ident can be heard.  When this knob is
pushed in, the ident tone is attenuated.
The volume of voice/ident can be adjust-
ed by turning this knob.

Pilot Configuration

This mode can be accessed by

pressing and holding the Nav Mode
Button for more than 2 seconds and then
pressing the Nav Frequency Transfer
Button for an additional 2 seconds, while
continuing to hold the Nav Mode Button.
When the Pilot Config Mode is entered
the unit will show the “SWRV” mnemonic
which is the unit software revision level.
Adjustment pages can be accessed by
MODE button presses.

The pilot may adjust two parameters

in the pilot configuration, the display min-
imum brightness and sidetone volume
level.

Minimum Brightness (BRIM) will

have a range of 0 - 255.  The dimmest is
0 and the brightest is 255.

Sidetone volume level is adjusted

when SIDE is displayed.  Values from 0 -
255 may be selected with 0 being least
volume, 255 being the greatest.

Subsequent presses of the MODE

button sequences through SWRV, BRIM,
SIDE, and then back to SWRV.

Momentarily pressing the Nav

Transfer Button exits Pilot configuration
mode.  The Nav returns to its pre-Pilot
Config state with the new brightness and
sidetone levels stored in non-volatile
memory.

Default Mode

Turning on the KX 155A or KX 165A

while pressing either the COMM or NAV
frequency transfer button will bring the
unit up in the Direct Tune Mode.
120.00MHz (120.000MHz in 8.33 kHz
KX 165A) will be the active COMM fre-
quency and 110.00 MHz will be the
active NAV frequency.  This will aid the
pilot in blind tuning the radio in the
unlikely event of display failure.
