Changing channels on the main receiver


There are two different ways to select a channel on the main transceiver:

Step or scroll through the channels using the CHAN switch or the ► and ◄ arrow buttons. To
sequentially change channels; press the CHAN switch right (+), or the right arrow button ► to increment
by one channel, press the CHAN switch left (-) or the left arrow button ◄ to decrement by one channel.
Holding the switch or button causes the transceiver to scroll through the channels. A remote channel
switch may also be connected to the rear connector of the transceiver to provide the same function.

Jump directly to a specific channel by pressing the keypad buttons of the required channel number and
then press the Enter button. When the channel number setting is numeric

Goto Channel:

is displayed.

When the channel number setting is alphanumeric

Goto Label:

is displayed. See section

3.6.8.5 for

more information on setting the channel number mode.

If the channel number entered is too big, a message indicating the maximum channel number

CH #> MAX (---)!

is displayed briefly. If the channel number entered is not in the current zone then

the message

CH# Not In Zone!

is displayed briefly. If the channel number entered is not valid then

the message

Invalid CH#!

is displayed briefly. The channel numbers that must be entered depend on

the display setting's channel number mode field (Chan #). When the channel number mode is set to
numeric, leading zeros are not required; in alphanumeric, all three channel characters must be entered.

Changing zones on the main receiver


When zones are turned on (from the edit zones menu) the lower display can show the current zone. To
show the current zone, press the DISP +/- switch until

is shown. To change the

current zone press the up and down arrow buttons. Only the channels in the current zone and channels
with zone set to All may be selected. If the current zone is the All zone then every channel may be
selected.
