Upon entry, the current receive rate is displayed with the flashing cursor on the first
character of the code rate on line 1. Line 2 displays the data rate. Press [
← ] or [ → ] to
make the selection. To select the currently defined variable data rate, select TX-V, and
press [ENTER] twice.
To change the rate using the variable rate selection, press [ENTER] when TX-V is
displayed. A flashing cursor is displayed on the first character of the coding type on
line 1. Press [
← ] or [ → ] to move the flashing cursor, and [ ↑ ] or [ ↓ ] to increment or
decrement the digit at the flashing cursor. Press [ENTER] to execute the change.
Notes:
1. When the RX rate has been programmed, the receiver is automatically turned off
to prevent swamping of other channels. To turn the receiver on, use the RX-IF
Output function.
2. Code Rate 3/4 not compatible with a combination of a CSC Closed Modulator
Type and Sequential Encoder.
