The ARCP-590 has newly adopted a listing by category in the menu function. The new listing by category as well as the conventional general listing allows quick access to the desired function.

Figure 8-3 Menu Function

The ARCP-590 enables a user to set the delay time for switching from transmit to receive in order to address the delay that occurs when using KNS over a network. Formerly, the last part of the transmitted voice was sometimes cut off when switching from transmit to receive due to the difference of delay time of control commands and of audio signals. In order to solve this problem, the timing to actually switch back to receive can be delayed for the time period specified in ARCP-590 after the user operates the switchover.

From the Tool pulldown menu, select “c”. In the Setup TX Control dialog box of transmit control you can select delay time from the Switching the delay time from transmit to receive while the transceiver is connected to the network dropdown list for switching back from transmit to receive when controlling over a network connection.
