Basic Functions
Battery Life Indicator
Your Radio has a built-in feature to alert you when your
battery life is low (approximately 5-10% charge remain-
ing):
•
Two (2) short, low-pitched tones will sound every 10
minutes and upon release of the PTT button.
Time-Out Timer
Time-Out Timer limits the amount of time you have to
transmit. Preprogrammed from 1 to 255 seconds or Off.
•
When you reach the time limit, a continuous, low
pitched tone will sound (until you release the PTT)
and your transmission will be cut off.
Idle Timer
Your Radio has a built-in Idle Timer that can be pro-
grammed from 0-30 seconds that will take you out of any
service you have entered if no action has taken place
within the given amount of time.
•
For example, if you enter Person Link Service but do
not initiate a Person Link, your Radio will
automatically return to Group Talk Service, so as not
to tie up system resources.
