MAIN MENU:
The main menu allows you to select the configuration sub-menus, so you can set-up the VEC-162 to decode the
various signals of which it is capable. There are six main menu OPTIONS:
1. SIGNAL SETUP
2. BAUD RATE SETUP
3. PRINTER SETUP
4. RAM SETUP
5. REVERSE SETUP
6. PRACTICE KEY
Press the OPTION button to change the menu options, then press the SELECT button to enable a sub-menu.
When the PRACTICE KEY option is displayed and you press the OPTION button, the VEC-162 returns to the
beginning of the main menu, SIGNAL SETUP.
SIGNAL SETUP
The SIGNAL SETUP sub-menu allows you to choose the type of signal that you want the VEC-162 to decode.
There are seven sub-menu selections:
1. CW
2. RTTY 170
3. RTTY 425
4. RTTY 850
5. ASCII
6. AMTOR FEC
7. MAIN MENU
Press the OPTION button to change the sub-menu options. Once the signal type you want is displayed on the
LCD, press the SELECT button to begin decoding the type of signal you selected. When you press the
SELECT button again, the VEC-162 will exit signal decoding, and return to the SIGNAL SETUP sub-menu. If
you are in the RTTY mode, and the VEC-162 is not decoding the signal, you may have the signal baud rate set
improperly. In this case, you can press the OPTION button to exit decoding and go to the BAUD RATE SETUP
sub-menu. At the BAUD RATE SETUP sub-menu, you may select another baud rate setting, then return to the
SIGNAL SETUP sub-menu and re-enter the previous RTTY mode. To exit this sub-menu without selecting a
signal type, press the OPTION button until the display reads MAIN MENU, then press the SELECT button to
exit.
