DIRECT MODE OPERATION (Conventional System
Only)

The direct mode (or talk-around) provides short range, line of sight
communications. One of the buttons on the control unit must be pre-
programmed for this feature to function.

1. Make sure the radio is ON and then select the desired conventional

system and channel.

2. Press the pre-programmed button to toggle the talk-around function ON.

3. Ensure that the channel is not busy by pressing the

(Scan

Version) to momentarily disable any channel decoding and unmute the
receiver or observe the unlit

BSY

indicator. If the Channel Busy

Lockout feature is programmed for the selected channel, the radio will
not transmit when the channel is busy.

4. Press and hold the PTT button. The

indicator will light and a short

beep sounds (if pre-programmed) indicating that communication can
begin.

5. Release the PTT button when the transmission is complete and listen for

a reply.

6. When the communications is completed, press the pre-programmed

button to toggle the talk-around function OFF.
