Function Modes
Press the Power (Func) switch for 0.5 seconds to place the tuner in function mode. In this mode
you can set the SWR threshold for Automatic tuning, set the power meter scale range or manually
store tuning parameters.
All LEDs light to show Function mode has been entered until the Power (Func) button is
released. Once the Func Button is released, the three LEDs for Thresh, Scale and Store will be on.
While in function mode, pressing the Scale Ant 1 (Scale) button will toggle the meter between its
