Vertex Standard FT-1000MP Auto-in, ScAn-ALL, Sc-dL-ti, NotcH, DiSPLY, EtS-SEL, Tr-diSP, BriGHt

Menu Selection and Settings

2-5 Auto-in 3-1 diSP-rES

Auto Memory Write - When enabled, active chan- nels found during scanning are automatically written into ascending memory channels of Group 1, or all groups, until full.

Display Resolution - Selects 10 Hz, 100 Hz, or 1 kHz display frequency resolution for the Main- and Sub- VFO displays. Note that this setting does not affect tuning step size.

2-6 ScAn-ALL

Memory Scan Skip - Enables/disables the memory scan skip feature. When OFF, memories marked for scan skip will be passed over during scanning. When ON, all memories are scanned.

2-7 Sc-dL-ti

Scan Delay Time - Selects a scanning delay time of 1 ~ 5 seconds. This determines how long scanning pauses on activity before resuming.

2-8 nb

Noise Blanker - Selects the IF Noise Blanker Type and its blanking level. Set this menu to “A1” ~ “A15” to activate the narrow pulse blanker, or “B1” ~ “B15” to activate the wide pulse blanker. Higher settings allow weaker noise sources to be blanked more effectively. Short-cut: Press & hold [FAST] & press [NB].

2-9 notcH

Notch Operation - Selects Notch Filter operation:

IF NOTCH - Manual IF notch operation using the front panel knob with the same name. The EDSP notch is not accessible in this mode.

Auto DSP - When the EDSP is engaged (menu se- lection 0-9is set to “on”), the [NOTCH] button serves as an On/Off switch for the EDSP auto-notch filter. The EDSP notch filter automatically locates exist- ing heterodynes and notches them out. Any addi- tional heterodynes are also notched as they appear. The IF Notch is accessible only when the EDSP is turned off (menu selection 0-9is set to “off”).

Select - If EDSP is engaged (menu selection 0-9is set to “on”), and the [NOTCH] button is pressed, both the EDSP Auto-Notch and IF notch operation take effect simultaneously. With EDSP disabled (menu selection 0-9is set to “off”), the manual IF notch is still available (by pressing the [NOTCH] key).

Short-cut: Press & hold [FAST] & press [NOTCH].

3-0 F-diSPLY

Frequency Display Format

Carrier - Displays the actual carrier frequency, with- out any offset added. When changing modes, the frequency display remains constant.

Offset - When changing modes, the frequency dis- play changes to reflect the added BFO offset.

3-2 EtS-SEL

Expanded Tuning Scale - Selects the display for- mat of the expanded tuning scale located above the main frequency display:

Dial - Permits sub-resolution tuning and display using small sub-increment segments that expand outward as the dial is turned.

Clarifier - Permits viewing relative Rx or Tx Clarifier offset from the displayed frequency. A single seg- ment moves left or right from center as the CLAR knob is rotated.

3-3 tr-diSP

Transverter Display - Selects 50, 144, or 430 to be displayed in the 1’s, 10’s, and 100’s of the MHz places, for operation with a transverter.

3-4 briGHt

LCD Display Brightness - Enables adjustment of the display intensity between High or Low.

3-5 PnL-diSP

Panel Offset Display Mode - Selects one of four parameters to be viewed in the smaller sub-display to the right of the Main VFO frequency display:

Clarifier - Displays “clarified” frequency offset ΔFrx or ΔFtx from original frequency.

Channel Freq. - Displays the operating frequency contained in the selected memory channel.

Offset - Displays the frequency difference (offset) between the displayed Main VFO and Sub VFO fre- quencies.

A1 (CW) Pitch - Displays the current CW pitch set- ting.

Note: When the Clarifier is switched on during opera- tion, it will over-ride any setting of the Panel Sub- Display which may be different from “Clarifier.”

3-6 S-bArdSP

Sub-Meter Bar Graph - Enables the S-meter bargraph segment display for the Sub VFO.

3-7 P-HoLd

Main Meter Peak-Hold- Enables/disables the peak-hold feature, and selects the display’s bar/seg- ment persistence (delay time) from 10 ~ 2000 msec.
