Time-out Timer
The purpose of the Time-out Timer is to prevent any single person from using a channel for an extended period of time .
If you continuously transmit for 10 minutes, the transceiver will stop transmitting and a tone will sound. To stop the tone,release the PTT
switch.You can press the PTT switch again to resume transmittign
Battrey save
The Battery Save function decreases the amount of power used when a signal is not being received and no operations are being
performed (no keys are being pressed,and no switches are being turned).
While the channel is not busy and no operation is performed for 10 seconds,Battery Save turns ON.When a siganl 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 the battery power goes below a pre-determined value ,the LED will blink red. When a tone sounds, the transceiver
stops transmitting.Replace or recharge the battery pack.
Monitor
When no signals are present, the squelch on the transceiver automatically mutes the speaker so you will not hear .Background noise.to
manually deactivate the squelch, press and hold the Monitor key. This is useful when you want to adjust the volume level , or when you
need to hear a weak signal.
The LED indicatorlights green while the Monitor key is pressed.
Quiet Talk QT
and Digital Quiet Talk DQT
Some channels may have pre-programmed QT/DQT tones . A QT/DQT tone is a subaudible tone which allows you to ignore (not hear)
calls from other parties who are using the same channel.
When you receive a signal that has a tone different from the one set up in your transceiver,you will not hear the signal.likewise,signals
that you transmit will only be heard by parties whose QT/DQT tone matches the tone set up in your transceiver.
Note
Although using channels set up with QT/DQT tones relieves you from listening to unwanted calls,it does not mean your calls will
be private.
