To change the rate using the variable rate selection, press 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 to execute the change.
Notes:
1. When the TX rate has been programmed, the transmitter is automatically turned
off to prevent swamping of other channels. To turn the transmitter on, use the
TX-IF Output function.
2. Code Rate 3/4 not compatible with a combination of a CSC Closed Modulator
Type and Sequential Encoder.
