Password
The
FT-65R/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 a 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-65R/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-65R/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.
