Keypad
The 6-key (MTS 2000 II) or 15-key (MTS 2000 III)
keypad controls or inputs data to many of your MTS
2000 radio’s features. Both keypads’ top three keys
access many of these features. In addition, the 15-key
keypad’s upper 12 keys are arranged, and function,
like a standard telephone keypad. The bottom three
keys of both keypads are the left arrow key, HOME key,
and right arrow key.
Selecting a Feature
A unique feature of the MTS 2000 radio is its use
of the display to give you quick access to many of the
radio’s features without having to have a dedicated
mechanical key for each feature.
The names of the features (CALL, MUTE, etc.)
are shown on the display, three at a time, with key-like
outlines to make them look like keys.
Selection of features is controlled by the three
keys directly below the feature names: the left key
controls the left feature, the middle key controls the
middle feature, and the right key controls the right
feature.
Left and Right Arrow Keys
The left ( ) and right ( ) arrow keys are used to scroll the display forward or
backward through the radio’s features and lists. There is no end point to the list, so
if you continue to scroll in one direction, the display will “wrap around” back to the
beginning of the list. If you hold either key down, the display will scroll at a faster rate
until the key is released.
The left arrow key is also used for editing when you are entering information
manually from the keypad. Pressing the left arrow key will backspace, and erase the
display, one character at a time. If you have erased all the digits, an additional press
of the left arrow key will return the display to the preprogrammed list.
HOME Key
The HOME key will always return you to the home (default) display. In most
cases, this is the current zone/mode. In addition, if you are using a feature that
requires it, pressing the HOME key will also cause information to be saved in
memory before going to the home display. Some radio features will automatically go
to the home display when they are completed, without having to press the HOME
key, thus reducing the number of keypresses required.
