Miscellaneous Settings
Password
The FT-25R/E includes a password feature which can minimize the chance of the
transceiver being used by an unauthorized party.
When the password feature is activated, the Transceiver will ask for the four-digit password
to be entered when it is first turned on. The password must be entered from the keypad.
Setting Password and Turning the Password Feature ON or OFF
1. Press and hold the F key to enter the Set mode.
2.
Press the [▲] or [▼] key to select Set Mode Item “
22 PASSWORD ”.
3. Press the F key to enable adjustment of this Set Mode Item.
4. If a previous password is stored, press the F key to clear the password.
5. Press a [ 1
] - [
0
] key, or use the [▲] and [▼] keys
to select the first digit (0-9) of the desired number.
If using the [▲] and [▼] keys, press the F key to
accept the first digit and move to the next position.
6. Repeat step 5 until the password is completed.
• After inputting the correct 4 digit password, the cursor will move to the “OFF” or “ON”
position.
• To correct a mistake, press the F key repeatedly until the cursor returns to the first
digit position.
• We recommend that you write down the password number, and keep
it in a safe place in the event it is forgotten.
• If the password is forgotten, the transceiver may be turned ON by
performing the “ All Reset ” procedure (see the Operating Manual).
However, the “ All Reset ” procedure will clear the password, as well
as all memories, and will restore all other settings to factory defaults.
7.
Press the [▲] or [▼] key to select “
OFF ” or “ ON ”.
8. Press the PTT switch to save the new setting and return to normal operation.
Changing the Channel Steps
The FT-25R/E synthesizer tunes the operating frequency in optional channel steps of: 5;
6.25; 10; 12.5; 15; 20; 25; 50; or 100 kHz per step, as well as an automatic (“ AUTO ”) step
selection based on the current operating frequency. The FT-25R/E is set up at the factory
in the “AUTO” configuration, which probably is satisfactory for most operation. However,
another step setting may be important to your operating requirements. The tuning step
increments are easily changed using the following procedure:
1. Press and hold the F key to enter the Set mode.
2.
Press the [▲] or [▼] key to select Set Mode Item “
30 STEP ”.
3. Press the F key to enable adjustment of this Set Mode Item.
