Using Mode Select Feature
Mode Select allows a long press to save the radio’s current
zone and channel to a programmable button, keypad button or
a softkey; then once programmed, the short-press of that button
or softkey jumps the transmission to the saved zone and
channel.
There are two methods to save the selected zone and channel:
• Softkeys
• Programmable buttons and keypad buttons (digit 0 to 9)
Note: Your radio must be preprogrammed to allow you to use
this feature.
Saving a Zone and Channel to a Softkey
Five softkeys are available for you to save the frequent used
zone and channel.
Procedure:
1 Toggle your zone and channel to the required zone and
channel.
2 < or > to MS1, MS2 ... or MS5.
3 Press and hold the Menu Select button directly below the
softkey.
4 You hear a short, medium-pitched tone when the zone and
channel is saved.
Note: To change the programmed zone and channel, repeat
this procedure.
Short press of the programmed softkey changes your current
transmission to the zone and channel programmed in this
softkey.
