Secondary Menu Functions
M E N U normally shows the primary menu. To access the secondary
menu, tap
D I S P L A Y (after tapping M E N U ). As you go back and
forth between the two menus with
D I S P L A Y , you'll see P R I and
S E C . Scrolling and editing are done the same way in both menus.
All secondary menu functions are listed and described here.
Parameters accessed with
D I S P L A Y are marked (*); see below.
S L C H Squelch level
R A T E S
R A T E switch selections
D O T Dot/space ratio (keying weight)
F P L Y Fast Play switch selections
P O R T RS232 interface on/off (Port Test*)
S P L T
S P L I T , R I T , X I T configuration
P o 2 8 10 / 12 meter SSB power output limit
R T T Y RTTY (data) mode control
R T C Real-time clock control
R I T RIT/XIT offset range (up to +/- 4.8 kHz)
A C C Accessory output control
D 1 9 Leave at default (n ) unless K60XV option installed
P A K2/100 final stage mode selection (Fan Mode*)
T R N 1 - 3 Transverter band setup (Parameter*)
D I S P L A Y Switch Usage in E D I T Mode: The D I S P L A Y switch is
used to access supplemental parameters when editing certain menu
entries (marked "*" above). You will normally not need to change
these settings. Entries which use
D I S P L A Y include:
Menu Entry
D I S P L A Y Usage
P O R T Sends an RS232 test message if P O R T is O N
P A Selects PA fan mode (see KPA100 manual)
T R N 1 - 3 Selects transverter parameters (see page 102)
Squelch (SLCH)
Squelch defaults to O F F . You can set the threshold to 1 -1 0 ,
corresponding to the S-meter's bargraph segments. Transmitting
holds squelch open for about 10 seconds.
Tuning Rate Selection (RATES)
The R A T E S menu entry lets you specify how the R A T E switch
works. The four options are:
3 N 3 rates, normal order (10/50/1000 Hz steps)
3 R 3 rates, reverse order (1000/50/10 Hz steps)
3 C 3 rates, CW optimized (10/20/1000 Hz steps)
2 2 rates (10/50 Hz steps only)
Keying Weight (DOT)
D O T sets the internal keyer's dot/space ratio (keying weight). The
range is 0 . 9 0 -1 . 4 0 , roughly 90% to 140% of "normal" weighting.
The default is 1 . 1 0 .
Fast-Play CW Messages (FPLY)
CW messages are normally played by tapping M S G , then 0 -8 .
During contests, some operators prefer to have one-touch access,
which we refer to as Fast-Play.
To use Fast-Play: First, program
P F 1 or P F 2 as F P o n for use in
turning Fast-Play mode on/off. Next, use the F P L Y menu entry to
select a switch group. For example, if you have F P L Y 2 - 5
selected, you can use
2 , 3 , 4 , and 5 for Fast-Play. (The T A P
functions of these switches won't be available in CW mode; H O L D
functions are unaffected.) When Fast-Play is on, the letter F will
replace the mode letter c once every few seconds as a reminder.
A tap of any Fast-Play switch will play its message buffer one time.
To auto-repeat, you must still use
M S G as described on page 94.
