6 COMMUNICATING
■ Function Commands
Commands to the keyer are entered in Morse code using your paddle. The keyer disables output keying. When
the function is complete, output keying is enabled, and the previous operating speed is restored.
1 Press [CH 1]+[CH 2].
• The keyer will send “F”.
2 Send a Function command from the table.
• If an incorrect command is input, a multi-dit error tone will be sent.

Description
Toggles the automatic character spacing feature ON or OFF. The keyer confirms
the new state by sending "ON" or "OFF". Auto-spacing helps form properly
spaced characters within a word. Character crowding is prevented by forcing at
least 3 space elements whenever more than one space is detected. This effect is
especially noticeable at low speeds. Without auto-spacing, character spaces are
determined by the operator.
Decrements the serial number by 1, effectively canceling the automatic increment
applied when last played from a message. The decrement function
accommodates re-sending the last serial number, as might be needed when a
repeat of a contest exchange is requested.
Sets the speed used for function entry to dd wpm, where dd are two digits in the
range 06 ~ 30. This speed is used to enter commands and load messages. It is
independent of operating speed and is unaffected by the analog speed control.
Alternatively, "dd=00" makes the function speed track the operating speed.
Causes the keyer to enter the Hand-key mode. Keying output will follow closures
of the dot and dash paddle levers, allowing hand-sent code. Normal iambic keyer
operation is regained by any button closures.
Increases keying on-time and decreases keying off-time by dd milliseconds,
where dd are two digits in the range 00 ~ 25. Although similar to increasing
weight, this adjustment is independent of speed. This setting is used primarily to
correct keying distortion introduced by the transceiver using Break-in operation.
Toggles the load mode between Character and Real Time. The keyer confirms
the new mode by sending "C" or "R" as appropriate.
Initializes the contest serial number to dddd, where dddd are four digits in the
range 0000 ~ 9999. Four digits must be entered (with leading zeros if needed).
Toggles the input queue ON or OFF. The keyer confirms the new mode by
sending "ON" or "OFF" as appropriate. When OFF, message button activations
are acted upon immediately, canceling any message in progress. When ON, up
to eight button presses are remembered in order and acted upon in succession as
each message completes.
Reverses the dot and dash paddles as may be desired for left-handed operators.
Sets the current operating speed to dd wpm, where dd are two digits in the range
06 ~ 60. The speed function establishes the current knob position at the entered
speed. The knob can then be employed to vary the speed faster or slower over a
total range of 3:1. Control via the knob is linear and increases speed clockwise.
Increases the operating speed by d wpm. d is a single digit in the range 0 ~ 9.
Decreases the operating speed by d wpm. d is a single digit in the range 0 ~ 9.
Allows an operator to select emulation of the timing characteristics of other keyers.
Sets code weight to dd percent, where dd are two digits in the range 25 ~ 75.
Weight is the duty cycle of a continuous string of dots, which is 50% for perfect
code. A higher weight produces a heavier sound, and a lower weight causes
characters to sound lighter. Once set, weight remains constant and independent
of speed.
Continuously keys the output for purposes of transmitter and amplifier adjustment.
Tuning is stopped by simply tapping either the dot or dash paddle.
Controls the way that zeros and nines are sent in the serial number. See "Serial
Number Options".
