Press the left key to move the cursor position to the left. 
If there is no value in the destination, the following occurs.

Press the down key and the set value at the digit where the cursor is displayed will get smaller. 
 
 
 
 
 

(Power settings screen) 

 
When that digit becomes 0, the digit is automatically borrowed. If the down key is continuously 
pressed, the value goes: 
900 

 800 ... 100 

 90 ... 10 

 9 ... 1 

 0 

in that order. The lower limit of the set value is 0. The upper limit is the rated value. If the value 
exceeds the limit, the buzzer (long sound) sounds and the value is ignored. 
 
Press the "RESET" key while configuring to set the value to 0[W]. Press the "ENT" key to confirm the 
set value and RF output operation will become possible. Press the "ENT" key once again and the 
settings can be reconfigured. 
 
Press the "ENT" key during operation and the cursor will appear. The RF output settings can be 
changed during operation. The actual output is controlled simultaneously with each change. 
Press the "ENT" key once again and the cursor will disappear and the set value is confirmed. 
 
Move the cursor and change the set value.
