4) If you just wanted to change the tutor WPM rate do nothing else. Turn off the unit and then
back on to use the new set speed (which will be saved for all your sessions until you change
it again)
If you are doing the initial setup or want to change other features carry on and do NOT turn off the
unit as above.
5) As soon as you release the key (or button) in step 4 hold it again, after a second or two you
will hear 'VT' in Morse. This is now going to allow you to set the Vari-Tone feature ON or
OFF.
If you want the Vari-Tone (VT) on continue to hold the key. After a second or two you will
hear a high pitch tone (2000Hz), this tells you that VT is on. If you wanted this option off
then when you hear the 'VT' Morse signal release the key and a second later you will hear a
low pitch tone (1000Hz).
6) As soon as you hear the low or high pitch tone start hold the key again. You will now hear
'KM' for keyer mode. This mode allows you to set Iambic A or Iambic B with Dot memory. If
you continue to hold the key after the KM signal you will hear another high pitch tone, this
means you are in Iambic B mode, if you release the key as soon as you hear KM you will hear
a low pitch tone. This means you have selected Iambic A mode.
7) All settings will be saved in the chip until you repeat this process again at some point in the
future.
8) Turn off the unit and now you're ready to practice.
How to use the uCPO
The uCPO is easy to use despite having many different modes and uses.
NEW! Using the Tutor mode without a Key
With the unit turned off push and HOLD the small push button on the front of the uCPO while
turning it on. Hold the button less than a second and then release. After a short pause the tutor will
start, just hold the button for a second to change tutor modes. All the features detailed below in the
'Morse Tutor Mode' section will be available to you
Straight Key Practice oscillator Mode.
Make sure you have wired your key to a 3.5mm MONO plug. Turn off the uCPO and plug the key into
the front panel. Turn on the uCPO, that's it! Adjust the volume to suit. The uCPO automatically
senses the straight key since it uses a MONO plug unlike the paddle key.
Paddle/Bug/ Practice Oscillator Mode.
Turn off the uCPO. Plug your key in, turn on the uCPO. Tap away. Now the speed control will be
active and you can set the speed from about 10 to 35wpm, the 12o'Clock position is approx. 20
wpm.
