IMPORTANT!
Make a backup file of the transceiver's settings, such as stored memory channels, filter settings, to the SD card before
updating the firmware.
The CPU will be automatically reset when the firmware update is done, the transceiver's memory contents will be
cleared and ALL settings will be returned to their default settings.

Turns the timer for SEND or Keying signal transmission
ON or OFF.
When using a PC with an old USB driver installed, and
an IC-7300 through a USB cable, turning ON the timer
prevents an unintentional sending of the SEND or Keying
signal when:
• Connecting a USB cable to the PC and IC-7300.
• A virtual serial port communication is established.
• Starting up the PC while it is connected to the IC-7300.
• Connecting or disconnecting another USB device to or
from the PC, while the IC-7300 is connected to the PC.
OFF: Sends the SEND or Keying signal immediately.
ON: Pauses for a few seconds before sending the signal.
L If you change this setting to "OFF," first update the
transceiver's USB driver and make sure the SEND or Keying
signal will not be unintentionally sent.
