Useful Functions
Verifying Firmware Versions
First, connect the transceiver or operation panel to the computer, and then turn the transceiver or operation panel ON.
Select “Product Information” from the Model dropdown menu. The transceiver firmware version will appear on the
MCP‑2A.
Note:
◆ To confirm the firmware version of the TNC microprocessor, the firmware version of the operation panel must be 2.00 or later
and “APRSxx” or “NAVITRAxx” must be shown on the display.
Increasing Size of Characters
Using MCP‑2A, select from three sizes of characters with “Font” in the View pulldown menu.
Note:
◆ Use an Operating System function to change the size of characters on the Menu bar.
◆ If you configure the font size for other than 96 dpi for the Menu bar and also select a font other than Normal for MCP-2A,
some of the displayed items may not fit within a window.
Configuring the Names for PM or Memory Groups
It is possible to configure the name for each memory with “Memory Group Name” or “Programmable Memory Name” in
the Setup pulldown menu.
Configuring User Names with MCP-2A
It is possible to configure the user’s name or callsign with “Callsign Setting” in the Setup pulldown menu. The character
string that is input is shown in the About MCP-2A window, in the Title bar and in the splash window when the software
starts. In addition, when the Start sending the Morse code checkbox is checked, the character string configured will
be played back using Morse code when the software starts.
Note:
◆ Depending on your particular computer used, it may not be possible to play back Morse code.
