Setting the Sensitivity Level When in or Mode

of unintended noises triggering a transmission and helps the radio
pick up soft voices.

the display.

3. Press to set or to continue set up.
3 = High Sensitivity for quiet environments

QT Noise Filtering
The QT noise-filtering feature helps to ensure uninterrupted
communication with other Motorola radios that have this feature.
This feature also filters out unwanted transmissions from other
radios. This is useful in places where there is heavy radio traffic,
such as amusement parks or ski resorts.
Note: QT noise filtering is not available when the radio is scanning.
To turn QT noise filtering on or off:
1. Press
until displays. The current setting On/Off will flash.
2. Press or to turn noise filtering On or Off.
3. Press to confirm your selection or to continue set up.
To transmit to a radio that has QT noise filtering turned on:
1. Select the same channel and Interference Eliminator Code as
the other radio.
2. Press to send a call tone. This allows your voice to pass
through the QT noise filter on the receiving radio.
3. Press and speak normally.
Note: If you skip step 2, the beginning of your message may not be
heard on the receiving radio. For a 30-second period, starting after
the last transmission, all transmissions received on the selected
channel and code will pass through the QT noise filter.
Keypad Tones
You may enable or disable the speaker key tones. You will hear the
key tone each time a button is pushed.
1. Press until appears. The current setting On/Off will flash.
2. Press either or to turn On or Off.

• The transmitted talk confirmation tone
Transmitting a Talk Confirmation Tone
You can set your radio to transmit a unique tone when you finish
transmitting. It is like saying “Roger” or “Over” to let others know
you are finished talking.
1. With the radio on, press until the appears. The current
setting On/Off flashes.
2. Press or to turn On or Off.

Special Features

1. Press
and hold until displays.
2. When in lock mode, you can turn the radio on and off, adjust the
volume, receive, transmit, send a call tone, and monitor

To unlock the radio, press and hold until is no longer
displayed.
Scanning Channels
Use scan to search the 22 channels for transmissions from
unknown parties, to find someone in your group who has
accidentally changed channels, or to quickly find unused channels
for your own use.
There is a priority feature and 2 modes of scanning (basic and
advanced) to make your search more effective. The basic scan
mode uses the channel and code combinations for each of the 22
channels as you have set them (or with the default code value of 1).
The “Advanced Scan” mode will scan all channels for any and all
codes, detect any code in use, and use that code value temporarily
for that channel.
Priority is given to the “home channel,” that is, the channel (and
Interference Eliminator Code) your radio was set to when you start
the scan. This means the initial channel (and code setting) is scanned
more often than the other 21 channels, and your radio will respond
quickly to any activity occurring on the home channel as a priority.
To start Scanning:
1. Briefly press the key. The scan will appear in the
display, and the radio will begin to scroll through the channel
and code combinations.
2. When the radio detects channel activity matching the channel
and code combination, it stops scrolling and you can hear the
transmission.
3. To respond and talk to the person transmitting, press within
five seconds after the end of the transmission.
4. The radio will resume scrolling through the channels five
seconds after the end of any received activity.
5. To stop scanning, briefly press the key.
To start Advanced Scanning:
1. Set the Interference Eliminator Code to “zero” or OFF.
2. Briefly press the key. The scan will appear in the
display, and the radio will begin to scroll through the channels.
No Interference Eliminator Codes will filter what is heard.
3. When the radio detects channel activity with ANY code (or NO
code), it stops scrolling and you can hear the transmission. Any
Interference Eliminator Code that may be in use by that party
will be detected and displayed.
4. To respond and talk to the person transmitting, press within
five seconds of the end of the transmission. The radio will
transmit using the newly detected Interference Eliminator Code.
5. The radio will resume scrolling through the channels five
seconds after the end of any received activity.
6. To stop scanning, briefly press the key.
Scanning Notes:
1. If you press while the radio is scrolling through inactive
channels, the transmission will be on the “home channel”.
Scanning will resume five seconds after the end of your
transmission. You may press the
key to stop scanning
at any time.
2. If the radio stops on an undesired transmission, you may
immediately resume the scan by briefly pressing or .
3. If the radio repeatedly stops on an undesired transmission,
you may temporarily remove that channel from the scan list by
pressing and holding
or for three seconds. You may
remove more than one channel in this way.
4. To restore the removed channel(s) to the scan list, turn the radio
off and then back on, or exit and re-enter the scanning mode by
pressing
.
5. You cannot remove the home channel from the scan list.
6. In Advanced Scan, the detected code will only be used for
one transmission. You must note the code, exit scan, and set
that detected code on that channel to permanently use the
detected code.
