Receiver On...
The LCD display will light up. If two or more of the RF LCD segments
light up at this point, there may be RF interference in the area. If this
occurs, change operating channels (select another frequency).
How to Make Operating Channel Changes
Operating channel changes (frequency changes) may be made in two
ways: manually and automatically.
To change channel manually
1. Use the Up/Down arrow buttons to reach the desired channel
number.
2. Hold the Set/Scan button until the channel number stops flashing
to set the receiver to the channel indicated. NOTE: Before the
channel has been set, a touch (momentary press) of the Set/Scan

To change channel automatically
1. Hold the Set/Scan button. The Automatic Scan/Set Mode will
automatically scan for and set the next open channel. LCD screen

There is about a half-second delay after the transmitter is switched to
the "On" position before the receiver's Tone Lock squelch un-mutes the

When the transmitter is switched on and in normal operation, the
receiver's RF signal level indicators will display as dark segments (signal
strength indicators) from bottom to top at the left side of the LCD
display.
