Page 28 FT-897D OPERATING MANUAL
AM/FM TUNING DIAL OPERATION
In the AM and FM modes, the DIAL knob is locked out (via
the setting of Menu Mode No-004
[
AM&FM DIAL
]
) so as
to allow “channelized” tuning on these modes. To adjust the
operating frequency, simply rotate the MEM/VFO CH knob.
If you wish to enable the DIAL for tuning in the AM and FM
modes, change the setting of Menu Mode No-004
[
AM&FM
DIAL
]
. See page 56 for details.
The “channelized” mode of tuning on AM and
FM automatically rounds off the frequency to
the next “logical” step when you rotate the
MEM/VFO CH knob one “click” in either direction. This
eliminates the inconvenience of having to preset the fre-
quency to an “even” channel.
RECEIVER ACCESSORIES
AUTOMATIC POWER-OFF FEATURE
The APO feature helps conserve battery life by automati-
cally turning the transceiver off after a user-defined period
of time within which there has been no dial or key activity.
The available selections for the time before power-off are 1
~ 6 hours, as well as “APO Off.” The default condition for
the APO is OFF, and here is the procedure for activating it:
1. Press and hold the
[
F
]
key for one second to enter the
Menu mode.
2. Rotate the MEM/VFO CH knob to recall Menu Mode
No-007
[
APO TIME
]
.
3. Rotate the DIAL knob to select the desired time period
after which the radio will automatically shut down.
4. Press and hold in the
[
F
]
key for one second to save the
new setting and exit to normal operation.
Once you have programmed a time interval, the APO count-
down timer will start whenever some front panel action (tun-
ing, transmission, etc.) is completed.
When the APO is activated, the “ ” icon will appear at the
center top on the LCD. If there is no action by you within
the time interval programmed, the microprocessor will shut
down the radio automatically.
Just press and hold in the POWER switch for one second to
turn the transceiver back on after an APO shutdown, as usual.
The APO feature will be disabled while using
the Beacon or ARTS features, even if the APO
feature is set to “ON.”
