Navigation and Editing

The Menu button enters "Menu" mode.

When in menu mode, the up/down buttons select the next or prior display option.

If a value is editable, the name of the value is shown on the top line, and the value of the item is shown on the bottom line.

To edit a value, press the "edit" button. Now the up/down buttons will scroll through the lit of available options for that value. Press "edit" to accept the currently shown value, or press "menu" to revert to the saved value.

When not in "menu mode", the 2x2o display shows the radio status:

  • the top line displays the radio name and selected band.
  • the bottom line displays the selected antenna.

When not in menu mode, the up/down buttons can be used to select other antennas that are compatible with the current band.

When not in menu mode, the "edit" button will cause the network configuration to be shown on the display.
