• tot.OF:
Turns OFF the function.

Approximately 10 seconds before the Time-out timer
is activated, the transceiver emits a beep tone as a
warning.
BE CAREFUL!
When using the BP-263
battery
case
, the batteries will become hot if this Time-out
Timer function is turned OFF or set to a long time
period, and transmission is made for long periods.
The initial Set mode can be accessed at power ON,
and allows you to set seldom-changed settings. In this
way, you can “customize” the transceiver to suit your
