Preset/Default Settings
A “PRESET” selection in the menu permits the storing of up to
five different user-definable configurations. Customized names,
using letters, numbers and symbols, can also be created and
stored for Presets 1–5. In addition, a Default (“DEF”) choice
permits returning all transmitter functions to their factory-
default settings.

To store Preset configurations:
1. Touch the Set button once to move to Menu mode.

2. Touch the Up arrow twice to move to “PRESET” in the LCD 

window.

3. Touch the Set button once and “LOAD” (or “STORE”) will 

appear in the LCD.

4. Touch the Up or Down arrow once, if needed, to change the 

selection to “STORE”.

5. Hold the Set button until “STORE” changes to 

“PRSET1” (or the name of the currently loaded Preset).

6. If desired, touch the Up or Down arrow to cycle through the 

available choices: “PRSET1” through “PRSET5” (or their 
previously changed names).

7. Accept or enter a name for the Preset:

a. To accept the standard name (PRSET1 – PRSET5, or the 

previously stored name) for a new Preset configuration 
and to update (overwrite) any previously stored 
configuration choices:
a1. At the desired Preset, hold the Set button until the first 

character blinks.

a2. Hold the Set button again until “STORED” appears in 

the window. This stores the standard Preset name with 
the associated function choices and returns the 
transmitter to normal operation.

b. To enter a custom name for a Preset:

b1. At the desired Preset, hold the Set button until the first 

character blinks.

b2. Using the Up or Down arrow, move through the 

available characters (see box below) until the desired 
character is reached. Touch an arrow button for single 
steps, or hold it down to scroll through the characters 
at increasing speed.

b3. Touch the Set button once to accept the first character 

and move to the second character, which now is 
blinking. Use an Up/Down arrow to find the desired 
second character; touch the Set button once to accept 
it and move to the third position. Repeat this selection 
process until the character for the sixth position has 
been selected. (It is not necessary to change or step 
through all six characters before storing the result. At 
any point in the process, simply hold the Set button 
until “STORED” appears in the window.)

b4. Once the sixth character has been selected as desired, 

hold the Set button until “STORED” appears in the 
window. This stores the custom Name with the 
associated function choices and returns the transmitter 
to normal operation.

Note: If a correction or change is desired while entering 
characters, simply touch the Set button once when the 
sixth (last) character has been reached. The window will 
flash “ESCAPE.” Touching the Set button once more will 
start the name-entry process over at the first character. 
(To leave any characters as they are, simply touch the Set 
button once to skip over them.)
