PROGRAMMABLE BUTTONS

Your radio has four programmable buttons. 
Your dealer/programmer can program these 
buttons as shortcuts to various radio features.

Check with your dealer/programmer for a 
complete list of functions your radio supports.

Programmable buttons include:

The four front buttons (

C

D

E

, and 

F

).

The three buttons (A, B, and C) of the 
optional DTMF microphone.

Some buttons can access up to two features, 
depending on the type of button press:

Short Press 

— quickly pressing and 

releasing the programmable buttons,

– 

or

 –

Long Press 

— pressing and holding the 

programmable buttons for a 
preprogrammed period of time,

– 

or 

Hold Down 

— pressing and holding down 

the programmable buttons while checking 
status or making adjustments.

The table on page 13 summarizes the 
programmable features available and shows 
the page number where the feature is 
explained.

In the “Button” column, have your dealer/
programmer record the name of the 
programmable button next to the feature that 
has been programmed to it. 

The dealer/programmer can use the 
abbreviations (P1, P2, P3, or P4) shown in the 
radio illustration on page 7.

Also, where appropriate, have your dealer/
programmer indicate whether the button press 
requires a short press, a long press, or needs 
to be held down.
