Memory Load Mode

1. Many of the steps you went through in the KEYER SEND mode could be repeated in MEMORY
LOAD mode. To enter the memory load mode set the memory switch to LOAD, and note the
LED will come on.
2. Press [1][#], [2][#], [3][#], [4][#], [5][#], [6][#], [7][#], [8][#], [9][#], [0][#]. This will clear all the
memory locations. Verify this by switching the Mode Switch out of memory load. Press any
numbered button on the keypad. Nothing but a feedback tone should result, indicating the stor-
age location is empty.
3. Return the memory switch to LOAD. Press [1] and send a short message, one word at a time,
with the paddle. Upon completion of the message, press the [#] button which terminates mes-
sage loading.
4. Switch out of LOAD and press [1]. Immediately upon release of [1] the message you recorded
will be sent. You may change speeds if you like and repeat the message again by pressing [1].
5. Press [1] and play back the message again. Between words in the message playback, press
the dot paddle and hold momentarily. The message will halt without inserting an extra dot. Now
you may send anything with the paddle. By pressing [*][5], the message will resume sending
from where you interrupted the message. This is a very useful feature for inserting a signal re-
port, for example, in the middle of a message.
6. Return the memory switch to LOAD and press [2]. With the paddle, key in the word "test" and
press [*][*][8][*][*][8][*][*][8]. Again, with the paddle, send "test" and then press [*][*][8][*][*][8].
Now send "test" again with the paddle and press [*][*][8]. Send "test" one more time, followed
by the letter "K" with the paddle. Press [#] to terminate the message.
7. Switch to memory LOAD and press [2] on the keypad. The message should play back a series
of the word "test" with progressively shorter spaces between words.
8. Switch to memory LOAD and press [*][9] to enter the REAL TIME memory loading mode. Press
[3], pause for a short while and then send a message, one word at a time, with the paddle. Ter-
minate the message by pressing [#].
9. Switch out of memory LOAD and press [3]. Immediately, upon release of [3], the message will
commence playing back with the exact same pauses as were present between words during
the loading operation. This is called the REAL TIME Loading Mode. The other (AUTO WORD
SPACE) loading mode will insert a maximum of one word space between characters unless
you use the [*][8] or [*][*][8] instruction in the loading operation.
10. Switch to memory LOAD and press [*][*][9]. Now press [4] and send "NR" with the paddle and
press [*][0] which inserts the Serial Number Generator at this point in the message. Now send
"K" with the paddle and terminate the message by pressing [#] on the keypad.
11. Switch out of LOAD and press [4]. The Keyer should play back: NR 01 K. Press [4] again and
the Keyer should play back NR 02 K. Now press [*][0] and then [4]. The Keyer should now play
back NR 02 K again (It repeated the same serial number.) Now press [*][*][0][1][6][1][#] and
then press [4] again. Now the message should read NR 161 K.
12. Press [4] again and press the dot paddle between 162 and K to halt the message (right after
the serial number).
13. Return the Mode Switch to LOAD and press [*][5] (for Edit). Now, with the paddle, send DE
K1XX K. Press [#] to terminate the message loading.
