KCU 1051 DISPLAY AND CONTROL OPERATION

This section describes the user interface to the HF system.

This is a brief explanation of the operation of the KCU 1051 display
and controls used to enter the manual channel and ALE databases
(Figure 3-9).

DISPLAY

The display has 2 lines of 16 characters. Both upper and lower case
letters can be displayed. The use of upper and lower case letters
makes some abbreviations easier to read, for example “MSGRCV”
could be “MsgRcv”

PAGES

The display is arranged in pages. A page is a presentation of specific
dat

a in an organized format. Figure 3-10 shows

the page organiza-

tion. There are four top level pages; ALE, SEND, MAN and SYS.
ALE mode is enabled on the ALE and SEND pages. The MAN (man-
ual) page allows the manual database of 100 channels, to be
reviewed, entered, and used for receive and transmit. The ALE
channels can also be reviewed and used for receive and transmit on
the manual page. However, the ALE database can be programmed
only in the sub-pages below the SYS (system) page. On the System
Page, placing the cursor over the top right field allows selection of
subsequent system pages.
