Frequency, RF Power, AGC, Mono/Strereo and other parameters are set using
two buttons and LCD.
. Filtered MPX. Filtered audio.Filtered RF.Continues tuning across entire FM
band.

How to use FM Transmitter v.8
to change frequency push left button, push again to move blinking cursor to digit you want to change. Push right button to set value.
to store new settings move blinking cursor to menu number (lower right corner) then push right button.
Menu #0 - set frequency #0 and AGC:
"Lvl" is Level, each step is about 10%.
"Rcv" is Recovery Time, set 0 for no recovery - this way high input will be attenuated but will never recover
Recovery 1 to 9 set time where shortest recovery is 1 - gain will increase about 10% every 3 seconds till average signal will equal "Level" , set 2 = (3s*2)*(3s*2) 36seconds, setting 9 = (3s*9)*(3s*9) - it may take half an hour for complete recover.
Menu #1 - set frequency #1 and Audio Low Pass Filter:
standard setting is 15kHz but you may change it to anything from 1kHz to 29kHz
Menu #2 set frequency #2 and set 19kHz pilot level, each step is about 10% , don't try to change pilot level unless you have proper test equipment.
Menu #3 set frequency #3 and RF Power output. Built-in RF
voltage detector used to calculate output power
U*U/50.
RF power reading is meaningless if bad or no load connected, use 50 or75
ohm dummy load to set RF power
Special codes entered from any menu:
001.11 MHz - to (un)hide power-on screen "www.fmkit.com" and firmware version
003.33 MHz - to (un)lock the transmitter. Locked transmitter won't accept any new settings till you enter 333 again.
