Exactly that's the purpose. "Leave the setting unchanged", if the current setting is NEITHER 5, 30, or 60 seconds (but one of the settings that you can only select in Tytera's standard menu). This item ("Unchanged") is there to indicate that the current setting different from the options further down the list.

It's difficult to find a concise description that fits on the tiny display. When you select "unchanged", it does nothing (but leave the setting, whatever it is, unchanged).

Without the "unchanged" item, which of the other 3 (5, 30 or 60 seconds) should be marked when entering that menu screen, for example when the current setting is 10 or 15 seconds ?

Hope this explains why that menu items behaves as it does. "It's not a bug but a feature". I am open for a better name, though.

All the best, Wolf .

Hmmm but its not like you say, i know that its not very important its only a Report I select 5 sec in original menu i select 60sec in md380tools menu and write " 60sec" after i select" Unchanged" and menu write "60 sec" but I expect to write the value of original menu "5 sec"

Another exemple In original menu i set Always In Md380tool menu i set 5 sec say to me "5sec tmr" Now i want change in menu Md380tool i set Unchanged but say to me "5sec tmr"

No, because you already overwrote the 5 sec with the 60 sec in your second step. If it would act as you described in your last line, we would need an additional memory location, to store the original value from the original ("Tytera") menu. Unnecessarily complex imo. "unchanged" cannot UNDO the change that you performed by writing "60 sec". There is only one memory location for this. Both menus (the one in the original menu and the one in the MD380Tools menu) both control the same memory location.

"unchanged" doesn't do anything when you press the 'confirm' button when selecting this item. Again, it's purpose is an indicator only, to indicate that none of the other three items is currently in use. An alternative text (label) would be "none of the settings listed below is currently in use" but that's too long for the display. So I called it "unchanged" because that's what it does when selecting/confirming it - it does no change anything, similar as pressing the "back"-button.

I hope this isn't too difficult to understand. "unchanged" or "other setting" or "don't change" or whatever you prefer.

Closing issue. This seems to work as intended.
