AUXILIARY FUNCTIONS
TIME-OUT TIMER (TOT)
Time-out Timer prevents the prolonged use of the same channel and energy waste resulting from
continued transmission.
If the radio continuously transmits signals for a period over the preset limit (set by your dealer, max
time is 5 minutes), the transceiver will stop transmitting and a beep will sound. To stop the tone,
release the
PTT
button. Press the
PTT
button again to resume transmission.
Battery Save
This function minimizes the amount of power used when a signal is not being received and no
operations are being performed (no buttons are being pressed).
While the channel is not busy and no operation performed for 10 seconds, Battery Save turns ‘ON’.
When a signal is received or an operation is performed, Battery Save turns ‘OFF’.
LOW BATTERY WARNING
Low Battery Warning alerts you when the battery needs to be recharged.
While transmitting, if power of the battery goes below a pre-determined value, the red light will
flash, a tone sound, and the radio will stop transmitting. Please replace or recharge the battery.
