CPU Resetting and Memory Backup
The FT
-1
OO's
memory data
is
maintained, even when DC power
is
turned off, via a lithium
backup battery with an estimated lifetime
of
approximately five years. No data essential to
the fundamental operation
of
the transceiver
is
stored in "volatile" memory, so when the
battery's voltage ultimately is depleted the transceiver will not be disabled; you will
just
observe that the memories will have disappeared.
In some cases
of
erratic operation, it may be advisable to reset the microprocessor to it
factory default condition, so as to determine whether or not a part failure has caused im-
proper action, as opposed to some operational error.
This section describes the procedures for tow types
of
microprocessor resets.
RESET PROCEDURES
To reset
the
customized
Menu
settings
to
their
factory
defaults:
I. Tum the transceiver Off.
2. Press and hold
in
the [HOME] and [FUNC] keys; while holding them in, press and

the
[PWR]
switch for
1h
second to

To
reset
the
VFO
and
memories,
but
leave
the
customized
MENU
settings
as
you
have
set
them:
1.
Tum the transceiver Off.
2. Press and hold
in
the
[DSP]
and [LOCK] keys; while holding them in, press and
hold
in
the

key for
Y2
second to tum the transceiver On.
