Receiving note
• Vibration function (Depends on the version)
When the matched RX code signal is received, the transceiver
may vibrate for a specified time period, depending on the pre-
setting. Push any key or [PTT] to stop the vibration.
NOTE:
• The transceiver cannot stop the vibration suddenly after push
-
ing any key or [PTT].
• The vibration sound may be heard at the communication
party, or be recorded if the recording function is activated
when [PTT] is pushed to stop the vibration.

Transmitting notes
• Transmit inhibit function
The transceiver has several inhibit functions which restrict trans
-
mission under the following conditions:
- The channel is muted.
(‘Inaudible’ condition; “
” does not ap
-
pear).
- The channel is busy.
-
A signal with the un-matched (or matched) CTCSS (or DTCS)
tone is received.
- The selected channel is a ‘receive only’ channel.
• Time-out timer
After continuous transmission for the pre-programmed time period,
the time-out timer starts, causing the transceiver to stop transmit-
ting.
• Penalty timer
Once the time-out timer starts, transmission is further inhibited for
a period determined by the penalty timer.
