How to delete the programming of switches one did via K3's intern config menu

Hi;

Can anyone tell me how to delete a programmed function switch
completely.

What happened:

Demonstration one of my ham buddies (yet no K3 user J) the K3 and its
abilities, I carelessly programmed the PF2 with some stuff of the
"config" menu. Normally an (PF2) a macro was stored, which switched off
the buid in atu and set power to 60 watts in case I want to use the pa.

I thought, this wouldn't be a great act and tried to write back the
marco with the K3 utility program, but I failed. Obviously the utilities
are not able to write over a programmed function done via the config
menu - can this be?

Can someone tell me, how I clear/delete this programmed function done
via the config menu, in order being able again to write back my
macro????

I have already tried an to load up an empty macro without success. It
seems that I first have to delete the programming I did via K3's intern
config menu but I can't find out how to do it. There is no access from
the utilities; there must be a function, surely a switch combination,
witch deletes the programmed function....

Many thanks in advance!

Peter - DL1MDZ

Peter,

Do you have an eariler backup of the k3 done via the utility.

If yes you could try a restore.

If the restor does not overwrite what you have changed, maybe a master
reset of the k3 and then the restore would do the trick

Otherwise the real experienced one's need to give advice.

In reply to this post by astro-peter

Can you assign another function, like toggling SPKR+PH, to the PF key?
