System Language
(Default: English)
Display > System Language(SYSTEM LANGUAGE)
Set the system language of the transceiver to English or Japanese.
• English : The system language of the transceiver is English.
- Only alphabetical characters and symbols can be displayed.
If Japanese characters (Kanji, Hiragana and Katakana) are
included, the LCD shows “=” or “_” instead of that character.
In this case, you can only delete “=” or “_” in the transceiver's
edit mode.
- The Display Language item will be hidden.
• Japanese : The system language of the transceiver is Japanese.
Kanji, Hiragana and Katakana characters, and the 2-bytes
symbols can be displayed on the LCD.
To display such characters in the DR mode or Menu mode,
Display Language must be set to “Japanese.”
Choose your language carefully
When the system language of the transceiver is set to Japanese, the ID-
31A/E has the capability to display both English and Japanese charac-
ters. HOWEVER, if you select Japanese, all menu items throughout the
ID-31A/E system will be displayed in only Japanese characters. There
will be no English item names. Unless you are fluent in reading Japa-
nese characters, use this feature with extreme caution.
If you change the ID-31A/E’s language to Japanese, and can’t under-
stand the menu system in the new setting, you will have to change the
language back to English by doing a partial reset of the ID-31A/E CPU.
A partial reset will not clear your call sign databases.
To do a partial reset of the CPU, do the following steps:
1. First, turn OFF the transceiver power.
2. While holding down [V/MHz]
, push
to turn ON the power.
- The transceiver displays “PARTIAL RESET,” then the partial reset is com-
pleted.
