To enter the menu system, give a single long press to the “Select” button. Use the TUNE knob to
scroll back and forth between the sub menu groups listed. To enter one of them, press the “Select”
button. To return to the main operating mode, press the “Exit” button.
The golden rule while in the menu system, is to press the “Select” button to go in to a deeper
menu level or edit an item, and the “Exit” button to back up.
In order to edit a menu item, navigate to the menu item then press the “Select” button to start
editing. When you have finished editing the item, press the “Exit” button to save it.
NOTE that changes to configuration parameters in most cases only take effect on the radio, when
you leave the menu system and return to the main operating mode. During viewing or editing of
menu items, the radio remains in receive mode on the currently selected VFO frequency.
5.1 Saving current operating parameters (VFO frequency etc)
When you power down QMX by pressing the VOL knob, the display will show “Shut down” briefly
before powering down QMX. At this time, various important operating conditions of the transceiver
are stored in non-volatile storage (EEPROM) that is retained while the power is off. Next time you
switch on QMX, it will power up in the same state that you left it!
The list of items saved is:
Mode (CW, Digi etc)
VFO Mode (A, B, Split)
VFO A frequency
VFO B frequency
Tune rate
RIT
RIT tune rate
Volume level (audio gain)
Keyer speed
5.2 Types of configuration menu item
There are five types of menu configuration item, and editing these is a little different depending on
the type.
1) LIST: a fixed list of values applicable to that menu item, for example Keyer mode; certain
boolean parameters are also equivalent to a list containing only two items (ON/OFF,
DISABLE/ENABLE, NO/YES).
2) NUMBER: a numeric parameter such as a stored frequency preset
3) TEXT: a text configuration item such as a stored message
5.3 Editing a configuration menu parameter
To start editing a parameter, navigate to the desired parameter in the appropriate menu, and then
press the “Select” button. When editing is active, you will see a cursor appear under the digit being
edited.
