The VST1 Transmitter has three modes for conguring the unit: Local Mode, Preset Mode, and Remote Mode (see manual for details). Local Mode utilizes DIP switches for conguring equipped options and rotary switches for frequency selection as shown below:
Pre-set Mode, selected when the two 10-position (BCD, 0-9) switches are set to zero and the 16-position (binary, 0-F) is set to any position 1-F, allows local selection among 15 pre-set congurations. The VST1 transmitter ships from the factory with the 15 pre-sets congured with all options “ON” and set to their max settings with the frequencies set per the table below. Pre-sets may be changed as outlined in the ICD (Interface Control Document) via the communications port. Pre-sets are reprogrammable using Remote Mode, selected when all three rotary switches are set to zero. “Remote Only” VST1 transmitters have no rotary switches installed. See the product manual for more details.
