BK Radio GPH-CMD User Manual

12 BK Radio
Once 20 channels are entered, subsequent
presses of the [*] key will cause the radio to
beep and momentarily display the message
‘CMND FULL’. When operating in the
Command Group, the continuously rotating
channel selector will “stop” at the highest
programmed channel. For example, if only 4
channels are programmed, when the channel
selector is rotated past the 4
th
channel the
radio will beep and remain on the 4
th
channel.
OPERATING FROM THE COMMAND GROUP
The Command Group can be entered by
pressing the [#] key twice. Operation in the
Command Group is indicated on the display by
the ‘CMND’ icon.
Adding or deleting a channel to/from the
Command Group’s scan list also changes the
channel’s status in its home group.
It is not valid for a priority channel to be set to
a channel in the Command Group. If, while
operating in the Command Group, the [PRI]
key is pressed to designate a priority channel,
the “target channel” that is pointed to by the
Command Group channel will be marked as
the priority channel.
MODIFICATION OF THE COMMAND GROUP
When the Command Group is active, a short
press of the [*] key deletes the knob-selected
channel, while a long press (4 seconds)
deletes all channels in the Command Group.
When a channel is deleted, the display
momentarily shows ‘CHAN DELETED’, and
the following channels move up in the list. For
example, if channel 5 is deleted, channel 6
becomes the new channel 5, channel 7
becomes the new channel 6, etc. When all
channels are deleted, the radio beeps
continuously and the display shows ‘CMND
EMPTY’ along with the ‘CMND’ icon.
Exit the Command Group to add new
channels.
