Feature Activation (PGMs)
By activating or deactivating the VDMP3’s 8 Features, it is possible to activate the PGM utility keys or PGMs that are programmed in the control
panel.
For example, when activating VDMP3 Features, the following message is played:
“Press 1 to activate / deactivate Feature 1”
“Press 2 to activate / deactivate Feature 2”
...

“Press star (#) to hang up”
Magellan / Spectra SP
VDMP3 features can activate the first 8 PGMs as programmed in the control panel.
EVO
VDMP3 feature numbers correspond to EVO utility keys according to the following table:
NOTE: If a utility key in the EVO control panel is programmed with a timer, the VDMP3 will not recognize PGM deactivation when the set timer
elapses. As a result, the VDMP3 may indicate that the PGM is ON when actually the timer has elapsed and the PGM is in fact OFF.
