Numeric Keypad Frequency Selection

Status Update).

To select a frequency when nine or fewer function tones are enabled, press the corresponding button 1

 When ten or more frequencies are enabled, use keypad buttons 2 through 9 to select frequencies 2

through 9.

 To select frequency 1, press 0, then 1.
 To select frequencies 10 through 16, press 1, then press 0 through 6.
If a disabled frequency is selected, the display shows:

. Pressing the

exits the frequency selection mode without changing the selected frequency. To scroll through the
enabled frequencies display, press

After the desired frequency has been selected, the operator may:

 Press the

button to select the frequency and exit the frequency selection mode.

 Press the

MONITOR

button to select the frequency, exit frequency selection mode, pause 250 ms and

send a monitor burst to monitor the newly selected frequency.

 Press and hold the

TRANSMIT

button or handset PTT bar to select the new frequency, exit the

frequency selection mode and begin transmitting on the newly selected frequency.

Frequency Display

When shipped from the factory, the desk set’s LCD display shows

FREQ: XX

, with XX being 1 to 16,

depending on the selected frequency.

Each time the unit is powered up, the status of the base/radio is unknown. The desk set LCD display
flashes the last selected frequency when the unit was powered down. The display continues flashing until
a transmission or frequency change is entered, or a parallel unit initiates a transmission or frequency
change.

Each time a guard tone is detected on the line, the desk set assumes the status of the base/radio is
unknown until a function tone is decoded at the proper time.

Note that the display remains flashing even when a monitor command is initiated after power-up. This is
because the monitor command does not control which frequency is being monitored and the state of the
base/radio is still unknown.
