“Long press” activates scan mode.
5
Volume Knob Switches the transceiver ON/OFF and adjusts volume
level of received signal.
6
Rotary encoder Turning rotary encoder changes the settings of several
parameters (frequency, IC-volume, VOX …).
Pushing the rotary encoder toggles between the digits
and acts as an enter key.
Long press is detected when the user presses and holds the key for at least 2 seconds, otherwise
short press is assumed.
When any user action is done (e.g. pressing a key) and the operation performed by this control is
not allowed at this time, then for a short period of time whole content of the display is inverted.
Beside the main functions described in the table above, the controls are also used for further
functions. This will be described in the dedicated chapter.
