        codes in the scrambler unit and manually activate it when needed.
        The code selection is memorized until changed.
        (for V/Sc or a BCD addressable signaling board installed at
        CN108- see service manual for details and operation)
        
     2. Operator-selectable Tone(QT/DQT) Control:

        collector output at control head rear accessory plug.


3.2- [ SCAN INFORMATION ]

 3.2.1- RESUME TIME A & B:
  Scan resume time interval from the end of a received call to the time
  scan automatically resumes. (0 to 5 sec. @ 0.1 second steps)
  [Resume time A] is active while on hook normal scan 
  [Resume time B] is active only while off hook scan is selected.

 3.2.2- OFF HOOK SCAN:
  If enabled-"Y", the mobile is able to scan even though the mic
  is off hook.  default: "N" 

 3.2.3- PRIORITY 1 & 2: (program choices for both P1 and/or P2)
  a) None-No priority ch.; If P1=None ,then P2=None automatically
  b) Fixed-A fixed channel (set by this computer programming ONLY).
  c) Selected CH.- The currently selected channel via the channel or
                   group/channel controls.
  d) Operator Selectable- Operator can "program" the pri. ch. from the
     front panel keys.
     To set P1: select ch., hold Scan key, hit Monitor key 3 times.
     To set P2: select ch., hold Scan key, hit Monitor key 2 times. 
     To set P1 or P2 to "None": use above procedure, except hit D/A key.
    Note: Only one P1 and one P2 can be programmed, even for multi-group
    mobiles

 3.2.4- GROUP SCAN:
  (KCH-4 Full featured panels only; 2 g. x 16 ch., 10 g. x 16ch.)
  [Single]- Scans only the currently selected channel group.
  [Multi]- Scans all channel groups (added groups & ch.s).

 3.2.5- LOOKBACK TIMES:
  Priority channel checking intervals while receiving on a non-priority
  channel. The mobiles CPU chooses either Lookback time A or B depending
  on the priority channel activity--Program both times.
  [Lookback A]: Priority channel is not busy (no carrier present).
  This time is typically set shorter than Lookback B, since the priority
  ch. should be checked more often so as not to miss a call.
  Lookback A: 350-2900ms in 50ms steps; default=350ms
  [Lookback B]: Priority channel is busy, but tone squelched.
  This time is typically set long since the priority ch. is busy with 
  a user with a different tone.
  Lookback B: 350-5450ms in 50ms steps; default=2050ms

 3.2.6- REVERT CHANNEL (for this program list-hit ENTER to open window):
  Revert Ch. is the programmable off-hook destination channel. The
  choices made available in the screen are dependent on two factors:
  (1) Whether P1 and/or P2 are used (P1 only, both or neither)
  (2) How P1/P2 are set (fixed, selected, Operator-selectable.)
  The choices made available will be 3 or more of the following:
  (a) Selected Ch.- Channel selected by controls prior to scan
      initiation.
  (b) Last Called Ch- last channel a call was received on.
  (c) Last Used Ch.- last channel a transmission was made on.
  (d) P1
  (e) P2
 *(f) P1 > P2
 *(g) P1 > P2 > Last Called Ch..
 *(h) P1 > P2 > Last Used Ch.

  *[f to i]: Are sequences made available when one or both priorities
  are set for "Operator Selectable". In these sequences, if a priority
  channel is "de-selected as a priority ch; i.e., set to None", then
  the next listed channel becomes the Revert Channel.
  *[g,h,& i]: if either priority is set for "Fixed", then it will not
  appear in these sequences on the program screen.


3.3- [ FEATURE OPTION ]

 3.3.1- TIME OUT TIMER: TX time out is able to set from 15 to 225 seconds
  in 15 sec. steps. default: OFF

 3.3.2- BUSY CHANNEL LOCKOUT: TX inhibited when the channel is busy.
  default: NO

 3.3.3- OFF HOOK DECODE ENABLE:
  If enabled-"Y", the mobile is still tone squelched even though the mic
  is off hook (valid for QT/DQT decode, 2-Tone & DTMF decode options).
  default: "N" (off hook condition disables decoder)
  Note:
  (a) This only "disables" the effect the mic-hook condition has on
      the "monitor" condition. For the 2-Tone & DTMF options, hitting
      PTT or the monitor key will disable their muting. 
  (b) The mic-hook condition still starts & stops scanning. The Off-hook
      Revert Channel function is still valid (see Scan Information).

 [Supervisory Tones]: User friendly acknowledge and warning beeps.
 "Yes" is enabled and "No" is disabled.]                               
 3.3.4- POWER ON TONE: Beep tone at radio power up. 

 3.3.5- CONTROL TONE : Key and selector knob echo-back beeps.

 3.3.6- WARNING TONES: PLL unlock, Time-out timer & Busy ch lockout
  alert tones

 3.3.7- ROLL OVER: channel knob selection method. 
  Yes- Channel Rollover: continuous channel selection with no stops.
  No-  First & last channel electronic stop: selection attempts past the
       first or last channel are prevented and also indicated with an
       audible speaker beep.

 3.3.8- PRIORITY CHANNEL TEMPORARY DELETE ENABLE:
  Normally, the priority channel cannot be deleted from the scan map via
  the "temporary delete" feature. If "Yes" is chosen, this is overridden.
  Hold D/A key for two seconds to delete the priority channel temporary
  when scan stops on it. The Priority Ch. will remain deleted until the 
 "Scan" mode is cycled off/on.

 3.3.9- TX AUDIO MONITOR: (Dual control head configuration only)
  Enables monitoring of the transmission audio from the active control
  head by the idle control head.
  Yes- enabled, No- Disabled

  Yes- enables the Operator-selectable 1 of 16(8) code feature, BUT
  disables the pre-programmed  per channel code settings in the Channel
  Info. screen- Scrambler Code column (this column will disappear).
  See service manual for details. 
  No- disables this feature; the per channel programming can be used.

 3.3.11- OPERATOR SELECTABLE TONE(QT/DQT) (16 code menu) 
  This feature is made available ONLY after a front panel key has been
  assigned for this feature in the Edit- Key Selection section (3.1)
  Allows the operator to select 1 of 16 tone pairs from a "lookup" menu,
  then activate it manually (regardless of the pre-programmed tone pair
  in the Channel Info. screen). See service manual for details.
  Hit enter; a blank 16 code menu for operator-selectable tone pairs
  is displayed for fill-in.

  filename.

	4.0 *** [ PROGRAM HELP ] ***

For Reading and writing between computer & mobile:
a) SET THE RADIO IN PROGRAM MODE:
   -Radio power off.
   -Hold down the OPT (KCH-3 BASIC front) or KEY1 (KCH-4 FULL front)
    button while powering up the mobile (power switch).
   -Keep the OPT/KEY1 held down more than 2 seconds
   -When  "PG" (KCH-3 BASIC front) or "PROGRAM" (KCH-4 FULL featured
    front) appear in the LCD, release the OPT/KEY1 button.
   -Mobile is now in program mode (it will not RX, TX or function
    normally).

b) CONNECT THE KPG-4 INTERFACE CABLE:
   DB-25 connector to the computer's serial port (COM1 or COM2) and
   the RJ-11 modular end to mobiles mic jack. 

c) READY FOR READ/WRITE OPERATIONS (Note: Be sure that the COM level in 
   the Setup (5.1) section of this program is properly set to match that
   of your computer.)

4.1- READ PROGRAM DATA FROM RADIO
 Reads all program data from the radio--select & hit enter.
   
4.2- WRITE PROGRAM DATA TO RADIO
 Writes all currently loaded program data into the mobiles EEPROM memory.
 Verify that the model type & configuration in the current data matches
 that of the target mobile you are about to program.
