17. Keypad Lock
There may be times when you don’t want
to inadvertently press a key on the radio’s
keypad. In this case, you can select
Keypad Lock by pressing the I key
(below the PTT key on the left hand side)
for two seconds. This will cause the key-
pad lock indicator two be shown, and the
Radio Status Display will show KEY
LOCK ON. (Fig. 18) While the keypad is
locked, the keypad will not respond to
key presses. Press the I key for another
two seconds to unlock the keypad. This
will extinguish the Lock indicator, and
show KEY LOCK OFF on the Radio
Status Display.
• When keys are locked, only the PTT
key and I key function.
• Locking the keypad can be confus-
ing. When the radio doesn’t seem to
be operating properly, see if the
LOCK indicator is on.
