3-2 March 6, 1997
Controls Common to All Modes and Features
Primary Operating Modes [Mode]
Press the Mode key to switch between the main operating modes (Voice,
CW, Data). Each time you press
[Mode] , the operating mode changes to the
next mode. The active mode is indicated by a LED and is displayed on the
LCD as a two or three character name.
Secondary Operating Modes and Features [Shift]
The
[Shift]
key selects modes and operating features with light blue letter-
ing by pressing and releasing [Shift] before pressing the mode or feature
key. The shifted modes include Setup [Shift+Mode][Shift+Mode] and
Test Instrument [Shift+Mode] . Shifted operating features include Input
Channel [Shift+Chan] , memory store [Shift+Store] , and Speaker Mute
[Shift+ Spkr] .
Many specialized mode dependent functions are controlled, for example, by
pressing
[Shift+Tone], [Shift+Random], or [Shift+Function]. The
availability of any of these and response vary depending upon many factors
including operating mode. See mode specific sections for information.
If you press the [Shift] key and decide not to complete the shift operation,
pressing the [Shift] key a second time before pressing another key will can-
cel the shift operation. If a mode or operating feature does not require a shift,
pressing
[Shift] and that mode or operating feature key cancels the shift and
does not execute the mode or operating feature. The shift operation will au-
tomatically cancel if you do not press a key within three seconds after press-
ing
[Shift] .
Speaker Control [Spkr/Chan]
The [Spkr] key will mute both A and B speaker outputs. The r icon near the
top middle of the display is visible when the speaker outputs are active. The
speaker output setting does not affect the headphone outputs or the line out-
puts.
