5.1 Keypad/Display Overview
The KST-2000A/B equipped with an optional keypad/display provides the user with a
simple method of controlling or monitoring the KST2000 transceiver.
The keypad/display unit is a weatherproof 16 character LED display with 6 keys to
provide data entry to the KST-2000A/B. The display characters can easily be seen in
bright sunlight as well as dark environments. While the keypad/display is a weatherproof
device, a case mounted swing away cover elements adds a second layer of protective
isolation. This second cover will ensure the keypad/display is protected from the natural
elements such as the sun, rain, and snow and can also protect the display during a system
installation or transportation
