Reference
While the preset key assignments are displayed, pressing another
menu key displays the new menu. ESC has no function.
Editing the Presets
Press the front-panel UTIL key, then select CONFIG and ASSIGN
PRESET. A
list of the five presets will be displayed (Figure 3-9).
Use the knob to select the preset to be edited. (The selected preset
will be indicated by an arrow cursor along the left side of the screen.)
Now you can either edit the selected preset or set it to auto.
=
To edit the preset, select EDIT PRESET. An editing menu
similar to Figure 3-10 will be displayed. An arrow cursor along
the left side of the screen indicates the selected field. Use the
function keys to select the field to be edited: TOP LABEL (the
top line of the on-screen label), BOTTOM LABEL (the bottom
line of the label), or FREQ (frequency to which the preset will
tune the instrument). Edit the fields as desired, using the
standard editing techniques, which are described on page 3-1.
=
To set the preset to auto, select AUTO PRESET. This will allow
that preset key to be programmed by the press-and-hold method.
Note that internally generated auto channel/frequency labels will
replace the previous labels for this preset.
Press-and-Hold Method of Programming
If a preset has been set to auto, it can be programmed with the press-
and-hold method. This method is similar to tuning an automobile
radio. Note that only presets set to auto, as shown in Figure 3-9, can
be tuned in this manner.
To use the press-and-hold programming method, enter a mode that
has presets available, such as | channel mode. The five presets will
be labeled along the bottom of the screen; choose which preset you
will be programming, and locate the function key (FI—F5) that is
assigned to it. Use the knob or keypad to tune the instrument to the
desired channel or frequency, then press and hold your chosen func-
tion key for 3 seconds. When the preset is programmed, the
RFM 150 will automatically change the on-screen channel / frequen-
cy label. If you release the key in less than 3 seconds, it will not be
programmed; instead, it will tune the instrument as usual.
