Chapter 6 - is devoted to problem solving. It identifies some of the
error messages that you might encounter and provides solutions
and alternatives for them.
The Appendices follow Chapter 6 and contain the following refer-
ence materials:
A. Glossary - Definitions of frequently used words.
B. Function Keys - A listing of what function keys you will run
across and a definition of what function the key will per-
form.
C. Acceptable Values - The range of values the PC Program-
mer will accept for a specific field.
D. Primary & Inverted Digital Codes - A table indicating
usable Digital Channel Guard codes.
E. Channel Guard Tone Frequencies - A table indicating
standard EIA Channel Guard tone frequencies.
F. Work Sheets - Prepared forms to assist you in organizing
data prior to entering it in the program.
Screen diagrams are used throughout this manual to help clarify
section discussions. Each item being discussed is denoted by a
number for easy identification.
Please pay particular attention to NOTES as they contain pertinent
information that you should be aware of.
IMPORTANT TERMS
Default Value - The KPC-300/400 radio programming software
provides predetermined (default) values in a majority of the data
entry fields within the program. Exceptions to this rule are fields
requiring variable names, dates, and serial numbers. The default
values assume that the radio will be used without optional features.
Before changing these default values, we recommend that you be
familiar with the operational implications of adding a particular
feature or option to the radio being programmed.

Error Messages - Each time data is entered in the program a
validity check is made to ensure that reasonable values were en-
tered. In the event that the data does not fall within the acceptable
range of values, an error message will be displayed in the center of
the screen indicating such.
Field - Refers to the area of the screen/window which allows data
entry. When moving the cursor across the screen, this area is
readily identifiable by a reverse video bar.
Help - Throughout the KPC-300/400 radio programming soft-
ware, "Help" denotes or refers to on-line assistance. This can be
accessed by pressing the F9 Help key from any field or the Shift
F9 Help key from any window.
Personality - Used generically to refer to information that is stored
in the radio that makes one radio perform differently from all other
radios. That information can be created, deleted, or modified and
stored on a disk for later use or reference.
Prompt Line - A line of text located in the bottom of the window.
As the cursor is moved from field to field, this text will change
providing instructions for entering data in the field.
HOW TO USE WORK SHEETS
Work sheets can be found in Appendix F. They are pre-printed
forms to assist you in organizing personality information prior to
the actual programming of the radio. You are encouraged to make
copies of these work sheets and fill them in before beginning
programming. Doing so can prevent costly and time consuming
mistakes. The work sheets can then be used for future reference.
Empty blocks in the work sheets are provided for you to fill in the
desired values. Blocks with information already typed in represent
toggle fields in the program where the appropriate response
should be circled.

HOW SCREENS WORK
Each screen is divided into three areas: (1) screen title, (2) screen
windows, and (3) active function keys. The title tells you where you
are in the program hierarchy. Windows provide for input of data
to the screen. Active function keys provide access to commands (or
actions) available for a particular screen. The function key com-
mands are labeled along the bottom of the screen. Only the
function keys with labels are enabled.
A window is a section of a screen that displays previously stored
information, enables programming alternatives, or accepts data
currently being entered. There may be more than one window
within a particular screen. Each window is outlined within the
screen presentation.
There are two types of windows: active and passive. The active
window is available for data entry or revision and can be identified
by its highlighted borders. The passive window is displayed but is
unavailable for program execution. If windows have overlapping
borders, the active window is presented in the foreground.
Like the screen, windows are divided into three distinct sections.
They are: (1) window title, (2) work area, and (3) prompt line. The
window title describes the function currently being performed.
The work area is the space provided for your input to the window.
The prompt line is printed information in the lower portion of the
window defining in further detail the action to be taken in the work
area.

HOW SCREENS WORK
Each screen is divided into three areas: (1) screen title, (2) screen
windows, and (3) active function keys. The title tells you where you
are in the program hierarchy. Windows provide for input of data
to the screen. Active function keys provide access to commands (or
actions) available for a particular screen. The function key com-
mands are labeled along the bottom of the screen. Only the
function keys with labels are enabled.
A window is a section of a screen that displays previously stored
information, enables programming alternatives, or accepts data
currently being entered. There may be more than one window
within a particular screen. Each window is outlined within the
screen presentation.
There are two types of windows: active and passive. The active
window is available for data entry or revision and can be identified
by its highlighted borders. The passive window is displayed but is
unavailable for program execution. If windows have overlapping
borders, the active window is presented in the foreground.
Like the screen, windows are divided into three distinct sections.
They are: (1) window title, (2) work area, and (3) prompt line. The
window title describes the function currently being performed.
The work area is the space provided for your input to the window.
The prompt line is printed information in the lower portion of the
window defining in further detail the action to be taken in the work
area.

This program uses a series of presentation screens to guide you
easily through the programming of a unit. There are two major
categories of data entry screens:
• Current Personalities Screen
• Channel Data Screen
Current Personalities Screen - The Current Personalities Screen
lists the file names of all stored radio personalities presently main-
tained in this directory. From this screen you can create a new
personality (file) or make changes to existing personalities. You
then have the option of initiating one of the actions indicated by
the function keys at the bottom of the screen.
Channel Data Screen - Data defining the radio personality is
entered into the Channel Data Screen which can be accessed from
the Current Personalities Screen by pressing function keys F2
Change or F4 New . Within this screen you can define the opera-
tional characteristics of the radio.

USING THE KEYBOARD
Figure 1-3: Keyboard
It is important that you be familiar with the keyboard of your
computer system. Each keyboard is different in relation to the
placement of some of the keys. In the PC programming software
package, there are categories of operational keys:
• Function
• Character
• Editing
• Movement
• Special Usage

The following sections give an overview of which keys are included
in these categories and what their uses are. However, in some
screens, such as the Current Personalities Screen, only the use of
cursor keys is allowed because selection operation is all that is
needed.
Function Keys
The purpose of a particular function key is dependent upon the
window that is currently highlighted at any given point in the
program. In other words, a function key may be labeled differently
from one window to the next. Be sure that you fully understand the
purpose for any function key prior to pressing it.
The command, or action, associated with a particular function key
is labeled in the lower portion of the window. There are two types
of function keys: active and in-active.
Active function keys are labeled. By pressing a
particular function, the software executes the ac-
tion delegated to that particular key.
Inactive function keys are not labeled and do not
have operational capabilities during the execution
of a given window.
The function keys are alphanumerically labeled F1 - F10. These
keys perform specific functions, depending upon which window
they appear in. The following Function Key Table represents their
functionality in the KPC-300/400 Programming Software.
