Setup Mode Programming
The following series of procedures is designed to allow you
to set the programmable features of your radio. Correctly
following these steps results in a minimal amount of radio
setup programming time.
During setup programming, the matrix display will show text
describing the programming action you are now performing.
NOTE
When in the Setup mode, if you stop programming for
longer than 15 seconds, your entry will be saved and
the radio will go back to the Marine Standby mode.
When you return to Setup mode and continue
programming you will see the last "value" displayed.
While in the Setup mode, you will not receive any
signal reception except when setting squelch.
