Keypad
These sixteen keys select the various operating features of the transceiver during re-
ception, and generate DTMF (Dual Tone Multi Frequency) tone pairs during transmis-
sion. One or two beeps will sound whenever one of the keys is pressed (if the beeper is
active). The labels on the faces of the keys indicate their primary functions, while the
labels above fifteen of the keys indicate alternate functions, which are activated by
pressing the [
F/W
] key first, and then another key within five seconds. When referring
to alternate key functions in this manual, we show the alternate key label followed by
the primary label in parentheses ( ). Primary key functions are referred to by the labels
on the keyfaces.
Remember to press the [
F/W
] key first (momentarily, unless otherwise indicated) when
you want to use an alternate key function. All key functions are described in the “Op-
eration” section, and summarized on the “
VX-150
Operator’s Quick Reference Card.”
