• Input the channel number using the keypad buttons.

The input channel number will be selected, assuming it was a valid channel. If you input an invalid channel number,
the display will reappear as depicted above, giving you the opportunity to input a valid channel number. You can
press the HOME button to cancel the input operation and return to the HOME PAGE.
Selecting a Channel by Alphanumeric Identifier
It is sometimes desirable to select a preset channel by name as opposed to number. This can be performed as
follows.
• Place the cursor under the alphanumeric identifier field of the radio you want to tune the channel on. The
following illustrating shows the cursor under radio 1’s alphanumeric identifier field.

• Rotate the VALUE knob clockwise to select the next channel in alphabetic order. Turning the VALUE knob
counterclockwise will select the previous channel in alphabetic order. Continue to turn the VALUE knob until
the desired channel is displayed.
1) The manual channel cannot be selected this way.
2) The cursor will not move under the alphanumeric identifier field if the manual channel is
selected.
Selecting the Manual Channel
The manual channel is used to tune channels not already programmed as presets into the C-5000’s memory. Each
radio has its own manual channel. The manual channel is located at channel number 0, and is displayed as “..M”.
You can select the manual channel by either entering channel 0 from the keypad, or by dialing it in using the
cursor/value knobs. The following illustration depicts a C-5000 with the manual channel for radio 1 selected.
