There may be situations where you want to “Mask” memories so they are not visible
during memory selection or scanning. For example, several memories used only in a city
you visit infrequently may be stored, then “Masked” until you visit that city, at which time
you can “Unmask” them for normal use (except for Memory Channel “1”).
1.
Press the
c
key, if needed, to enter the Memory Recall (“MR”) mode.
2.
Press and hold in the
f
key for 1/2 second, then rotate
the
DIAL
to select the memory channel to be “Masked”
from view.
3.
Press the
d
key. The confirmation message (
MASK?
) will
appear on the display. Press the
d
key once more, the
display will revert to memory channel #1. If you rotate the
DIAL
to the location you just “Masked,” you will observe
that it is now invisible.
4.
To Unmask the hidden memory, repeat the above procedure: press and hold in the
f
key for 1/2 second, rotate the
DIAL
to select the masked memory’s number, then
press the
d
key to restore the memory channel’s data.
Watch out! You can manually store data over a “Masked” memory, deleting
previous data, if you’re not careful. Use the “next available memory” stor-
age technique to avoid over-writing a masked memory.
