Auto Store In Expert Status; Power Save; Changing Power Save Parameters - AOR AR8000 Operating Manual

First place the AR8000 into "M.RE" mode by switching on the receiver and
pressing the [SCAN] key once (unless it is in SCAN mode in which case you
should press [2VFO] followed by [SCAN]).
Select memory bank "J" by pressing the bank identifier via the keypad [0J].
The [DIAL] or UP / DOWN keys may be used to review the memory channel
data.
What to do with the automatically stored data
Once data has been stored, it may be deleted (as described earlier in this
section), scanned by pressing [SCAN] [J] or MOVED to another memory bank
and channel (see section 8-5 of this manual) to form the basis of a useful data
bank.
15-2 Switching AUTO STORE OFF/ON in EXPERT status
In EXPERT status, the CONFIGURATION menu is used to switch the AUTO
STORE facility ON or OFF.
To access the configuration menu press [FUNC] [LOCAL]. Make sure that the
EXPERT status is selected, if not use the UP/DOWN key to move the cursor
alongside the "NEWUSER" option and rotate the [DIAL] so that the legend
"EXPERT" is displayed.
Press the [DOWN] key one further time until the
option "AUTO-STORE BANK-J STORE ON" is
displayed. To disable the AUTO STORE facility,
rotate the [DIAL] until the option "OFF" is displayed.
Press [ENT] to accept the new parameters and
return to SEARCH, SCAN or VFO mode (which ever
was previously in use).
(16) POWER SAVE programming in EXPERT status
The AR8000 has a POWER SAVE facility to enable the receiver to operate for
longer periods of time between battery recharging. Power save is default OFF
in NEWUSER status to save any possible confusion while the receiver is in a
"dormant" cycle.
When power save is ON, the receiver will automatically switch On and Off but
the display will appears permanently On. Only the AR8000 "receive" circuitry is
switched On and Off (switching the receiver off for short periods of time is what
saves power!), the microprocessor is left On permanently.
When activated while in EXPERT status, two parameters may be changed to
affect the way the receiver monitors when in VFO mode, these are "DELAY"
and "CYCLE".
