PROGRAMMING AT
THE BELTPACK
INTRODUCTION TO PROGRAMMING ON THE
BELTPACK
In programming the Beltpack, the general considerations are:
• It is necessary to have a radio connection to be able to engage
programming mode. It is not generally possible to enter
programming mode unless the normal working display is present.
• To access the main programming menu, hold both the UP and
DOWN keys pressed together for at least 3 seconds. This calls up
the main programming menu.
• The Beltpack saves programming data when you press enter on a
menu which does not have an UP arrow at the right hand end. To
exit without saving, press the UP and DOWN buttons
simultaneously for 3 seconds.
• Generally buttons auto-repeat when held pressed.
• The "cursor" is the highlighted item and it cycles round to the other
end of the menu when it reaches one end.
• The icon shown in a box is the currently selected item.
• If the right hand end of the menu contains an UP arrow, selecting
this and pressing Enter will take you back up one level in the
menu structure and will eventually return you to the main working
display.
• The backlight times out after 15 seconds.
The menus in Program Mode are presented graphically as a menu
map. The screen pictures shown in this document refer to beltpacks
running V4A or later of the firmware. Beltpacks with different versions
of the firmware may display slightly different screens.
SELECTION OF KEY AND PAGE
Several areas of the programming set up a mode or function on a
particular key. It is, therefore, necessary to select both the key and the
page on which it appears prior to entering the required programming
menu. The ‘Select Assignment’ display (below)
