Message Time of Reception (24 hour format) and message number.
Decimal Argos ID Code.
Frequency in MHz of received message / First Data Byte.
Next three data bytes.
Additional screens of data are viewed by using the DN key. When the last data screen of a message is
displayed, additional pressing of the DN key will allow the user to display the previous message.
Additional pressing of the DN key will then review the data screens of the previous message followed
by the next previous message. By pressing the DN key all stored messages may be reviewed by the
user. By pressing the UP key the user will move back up through the displayed messages, displaying
only the first screen of multi-screen messages. Message review is scrolled using the DN and UP keys,
one message at a time with the most recent message displayed first. The scroll speed increases when
the UP or Dn key is depressed for more than 2 seconds. When the last message is scrolled, a message
indicating end of messages is displayed.
The screen may be exited by three methods.
1) Pressing the FN key returns to the Main Screen at anytime in Message screen.
2) Pressing the UP key until the newest message is displayed then returns to Main Screen.
3) From the “End of MSGS” screen, pressing the DN key again will return to the Main Screen.
When Update mode is off and the user is looking at data screens other than the first received message
screen, and a new message is received, the receiver will “beep” indicating a new message was
received, but the display will remain unchanged. The user must depress the FN key to leave the
current data display.
