VX-8GR/GE OPERATING MANUAL 21
ADVANCED OPERATION
Now that you mastered the basics of VX-8GR/GE operation, let’s learn more about some
of the really neat features.
KEYBOARD LOCKING
In order to prevent accidental frequency change or inadvertent transmission, various keys
and switches may be locked out. The possible lockout combinations are:
KEY: Just the front panel keys are locked out
DIAL: Just the top panel DIAL knob is locked out
KEY&DIAL: Both the DIAL knob and Keys are locked out
PTT: The PTT switch is locked (TX not possible)
KEY&PTT: Both the keys and PTT switch are locked out
DIAL&PTT: Both the DIAL knob and PTT switch are locked out
ALL: All of the above are locked out
To lock out some or all of the keys:
1. Press and hold the m key for one second to enter the Set Mode.
2. Rotate the DIAL knob to select Set Mode Item 46: LOCK.
3. Press the m key briefly to enable selection of this Menu
Item.
4. Rotate the DIAL knob to choose between one of the lock-
ing schemes as outlined above.
5. When you have made your selection, press the PTT switch
to save the new setting and resume normal operation.
To activate the locking feature:
Press the
p
(
PWR
)
switch briefly. The “k” icon will appear
on the LCD. To cancel locking, press the
p
(
PWR
)
switch again.
Even when “ALL” keys have been locked out, one
key actually is not locked out: the
p
(
PWR
)
switch
remains available so you can unlock your keypad when you want to!
