" After [SET·SKIP] released Bank selection Bank channel selection t Push and hold [VFO/MR·S. MW] for 1 sec. to program the bank and exit select memory write mode. 30 5 MEMORY OPERATION Memory bank selection q Push [VFO/MR·S. MW] to select memory mode in the desired band (left or right). w Push [MHz·TS] to enter memory type selection mode. [VFO/MR·S. MW] [MHz·TS] [DIAL] Transferring bank contents The bank contents of programmed memory channels can be cleared or transferred to another bank. INFORMATION: Even if the bank is cleared of memory channels, the memory channel contents still remain programmed. q Select the desired bank contents to be transferred or erased from the bank in the main band. Push the main band's [VFO/MR·S. MW] several times to select memory mode. Push the same band's [MHz·TS] then rotate the same band's [DIAL] to select the desired memory bank. · Bank's indicator appears at top of the memory channel. e Rotate the same band's [DIAL] to select the desired bank (A to H, J to R, T, U, W or Y). · Only programmed banks are displayed. r Push any key for the main band or any of the shared keys below the display to set the bank indication. · Bank's indicator appears at top of the memory channel. Push any key for the main band or any of the shared keys below the display to select the bank then rotate the same band's [DIAL] to select the desired contents. [VFO/MR·S. MW] [MHz·TS] [DIAL] t Rotate the same band's [DIAL] to select the contents in the bank. y To return to regular memory mode, repeat steps w­r and select "bAnk --" at step e. · Memory bank indication Bank indicator appears 31 MEMORY OPERATION w Push [VFO/MR·S. MW] for 1 sec. to enter select memory write mode. · "!" indicator and the memory channel number blink. 5 r Rotate the same band's [DIAL] to select the desired bank indicator to transfer or erase. · Push [ATT·PRIO] to toggle the bank or bank channel selection. And using the bank scan is helpful. While pushing and holding [MODE·SCAN], rotate [DIAL] also to select full (ALL) or programmed scan (P00­P49). 34 6 SCAN OPERATION Scan edges programming Scan edges can be programmed in the same manner as memory channels. Scan edges are programmed into scan edges, 0A/0B to 49A/49B, in memory channels. q Push the desired band's [VFO/MR·S. MW] once or twice to select VFO mode. w Set the edge frequency of the desired frequency range: Set the frequency using the same band's [DIAL]. to enter select memory write mode. · "!" indicator and the memory channel number blink. r Rotate the same band's [DIAL] to select one of scan edge channel, 0A to 49A. to program. · 3 beeps sound and VFO mode is automatically selected. · Scan edge 0B to 49B is automatically selected when continuing to hold [VFO/MR·S. MW] after programming. y To program a frequency for the other pair of scan edges, 0B to 49B, repeat steps w to r. · If the same frequency is programmed into a pair of scan edges, programmed scan will not function. [EXAMPLE]: Programming 144. 000 MHz into scan edge 1A. Push VFO/MR S. MW Rotate for setting frequency, etc. Push VFO/MR S. MW for 1 sec. Beep Beep Rotate Push VFO/MR S. MW for 1 sec. and continue to push Release VFO/MR S. MW Beep Beep Beep Beep 35 SCAN OPERATION 6 Skip scan D Skip channel/frequency setting You can set the selected memory channel as a skip channel which is skipped during memory skip scan. In addition, it can be set as a skip channel for both memory skip scan and frequency skip scan. Push the main band's [VFO/MR·S. MW] once or twice to select memory mode, then rotate the same band's [DIAL] to select the desired memory channel to be a skip channel. · "!" and memory channel number appear. D Skip scan setting [ q Push the main band's [VFO/MR·S. MW] once or twice to select VFO mode. e Push [SET·LOCK] or [ATT·PRIO] several times until "PSC" appears. [SET·SKIP] [VFO/MR·S. MW] [DIAL] 6 w Push and hold [SET·SKIP] for 1 sec. [. . . ] q Select any of SSB, AM or FM mode in the desired band (left or right). e Push [SET·SKIP] or [ATT·PRIO] several times until "AnF" appears. [SET·SKIP] [ATT·PRIO] [DIAL] The NR (Noise Reduction) function reduces noise components and picks out desired signals which are buried in noise. The received AF signals are converted to digital signals and then the desired signals are separated from the noise. e Push [SET·SKIP] or [ATT·PRIO] several times until "nr" appears. [SET·SKIP] [ATT·PRIO] [DIAL] r Rotate same band's [DIAL] to toggle the ANF function ON and OFF. r Rotate same band's [DIAL] to select the NR level from 1 to 15 or OFF. t Push any key for main band to exit set mode. t Push any key for main band to exit set mode. 65 OTHER FUNCTIONS 11 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 DATA cloning (IC-PCR2500 control software must be installed) Cloning allows you to quickly and easily transfer the programmed contents from a personal computer to a receiver using the IC-PCR2500 control software.
