Group And Channel Selection
Several methods, some of which depend on programming, can be used to
select a new group or channel. These procedures are presumed to be starting
from the normal receive display.
METHOD 1
If group selection is programmed to the SYSTEM/GROUP/
CHANNEL knob, select a group by turning the SYSTEM/
GROUP/CHANNEL knob to the desired group. The display
registers the new group name on line two. If the wrap option
is OFF and the knob is moved to a position greater than the
number of programmed groups, the highest programmed
group will remain selected.
METHOD 2
If group selection is programmed as the primary function of
the RAMP control

registers the new group name on line two.
METHOD 3
Press

to enter the group select mode and follow the
selection mode rules detailed earlier. Presses of the RAMP
control will now scroll through different groups.
LAST SYSTEM/GROUP OR CHANNEL RECALL
(Supervisory Radio Units Only)
This feature, enabled through ProGrammer, allows the user to recall the last
selected system/group after an EDACS emergency or home function, a
conventional emergency or home function, or system/group key function. For
example, if the Home button (pre-programmed) is pressed, the radio will go to
the designated Home system/group or channel. If the Home button is pressed
again, the radio returns to the previous system/group or channel. At this time,
the user can toggle between the Home system/group or channel and the
previous system/group or channel. The operation is the same for the SG1-SG5
buttons.
