9 Setup, Timer and Config menu options

The SETUP menu allows access to the three receiver

setup memories: A, B and C. The CONFIG menu allows

various manual / automatic options to be set and the

auxiliary output levels adjusted. It is also the route to the

filter calibration routine. Both of these menus differ from

all of the other receiver menus in that item selection is

made by rotating the spin-wheel. Both menus have eight

items so it doesn’t take too long to find the one that you

want. Once the required item is chosen a soft-key is used

to action or change the selected item.

9-1 Setup menu options

The SETUP menu is selected by pressing the

button - Setup is displayed above the spin-wheel.

Turning the spin-wheel will produce to following

items. These are actioned by pressing the

button:-

button)

SETUP menu is selected)

SetB:Save Saves the current receiver settings

Deflt Set Loads the receiver with all of the

A load operation is confirmed with a Loaded .. message

displayed briefly at the top left of the LCD. Save operations

are confirmed with a Saved .. message.

The three SETUP MEMORIES can save your favourite

receiver set-ups, one for casual listening, one for serious

DXing, one for data communication or whatever you

choose. Each mode can have your own choice of filter

bandwidth, pass band offset, BFO setting and AGC speed,

along with global settings of the tone controls, auto

/ manual synchronous AM, auto / manual RF attenuator

and line output levels. Using the setups can avoid having

to recall many different menus, and provides a useful short

cut to changing listening modes.

If you suspect that some settings are wrong, or want to

return the receiver to a known condition the LOAD

DEFAULT facility is available. This will ensure that sensible

filters are selected for each mode of reception, no PBS

offset, no BFO offset for CW and DATA modes, maximum

IF gain with AGC on, auto synchronous AM, auto RF

attenuation, flat tone control settings, standard line output

levels etc. The SETUP MEMORIES are not affected by

the LOAD DEFAULT operation, only the current receiver

settings are changed.

9-2 Timer settings

The AR7030 is equipped with a 24-hr clock and timer.

The clock is permanently displayed on the LCD while the

set is connected to external power and switched off. When

the receiver is on, the clock display can be turned on by

pressing the

button.

When the set is off, the clock is displayed and the LCD

illumination is dimmed (not switched off completely) to

make the AR7030 useful as a bedside radio... admittedly

it makes an expensive clock radio alarm. If no power is

applied the clock will not be displayed, but it is kept running

by a small, internal, rechargeable battery.

Timer operation allows the AR7030 to be programmed to

switch on at a predetermined time and stay on for a period

of time before switching off again. Also a sleep timer allows

the receiver to switch off automatically after a set period

(up to 4 hours - for insomniacs).

The TIMER menu is accessed from the SETUP menu. If

necessary press

, then press the soft-key.

The run time (in minutes) displayed at the top left is used

for both the timer operation time and the sleep timer. In

fact when timer operation starts the sleep mode is invoked

to provide a count-down display and then switch the

receiver off.

Setting the sleep timer: The sleep timer (and timer mode

run time) is set in

minutes

. From the TIMER menu, use

the spin-wheel to set the Run = time (shown at the top

left). Pressing the

soft-key will add 60 minutes to

the time, which can be between 1 and 255 minutes.

To activate the sleep timer press the soft-key.
