monitoring status, the battery status of the associated
receiver (relative charge left or time of operation) and
the relative RF signal strength.
The receiver modules are numbered one through six
and correspond to the following physical layout:
Receiver Detail Screen
Pressing a front panel Receiver Select Button opens
the corresponding Receiver Detail Screen. This screen
displays more detailed information about the selected
receiver and is used for setting the operating frequency
of the selected Receiver Module and offering informa-
tion such as transmitter Frequency Select Switch set-
tings, RF signal strength and audio attenuator level, etc.
This screen is also the only means for tuning a receiver
module.
Tuning a Receiver Module with the LCD
There are several methods to set the operating frequen-
cy for individual receiver modules. (See also DivMode
Setup Screen.)
If there is no indication for a Tuning Mode for the select-
ed receiver module, then rotating the MENU/SELECT
control allows the selection of any of the 256 available
frequencies. Stopping at any frequency sets the se-
lected receiver module to that channel in real-time.
If there is an indication that one of the group tuning
modes is active for the selected receiver module, then
rotating the MENU/SELECT control selects only the
frequencies that are part of the selected Tuning Group.
(See Tuning Setup Screen for information.) Stopping at
any of the freselected channels sets the receiver mod-
ule to that frequency in real-time.
The operating frequency of a receiver module can also
be set through the Scan Function. (See Scan Function
for more information.)
Tuning Group Select Shortcut
To instantly select or change a Tuning Group from the
Receiver Detail Screen, hold the FUNCTION button,
then press a Receiver Select button according to the
chart below:
Receiver Info Screen
From the Receiver Detail Screen, pressing the front
panel Receiver Select Button for the selected Receiver
Module again displays the Receiver Info Screen. This
screen temporarily displays the receiver module loca-
tion, operating frequency block, compatibility mode, out-
put audio level and transmitter battery condition. This
can be a voltage level or an elapsed time depending on
the TXBatt set up. (See TxBatt.) After approximately
five seconds, the display returns to the Receiver Detail
Screen.
The Level setting on this screen is a user-selectable
audio output attenuator setting and should not be
confused with the instantaneous Audio Output Level
displayed in the Receiver Detail Screen. The latter is a
measure of the channel’s instantaneous audio output
level.
