with CTCSS decoders time to un-squelch before any Morse code is
transmitted.
7.17.8 Transmit Time Out Time
If programmed to 0 this function is off. Programming from 1 to 999 seconds
will set the repeater to drop out after the number of seconds programmed
in this register. The time out timer is designed to limit conversation length.
7.17.9 Transmit PTT Drop Out Time
This register programs how many seconds the repeater’s transmitter will stay
keyed after loss of COR/COS/CTCSS input. Normally this is programmed
for 2 to 7 seconds. After PTT In is detected, the ID-1 will turn on its PTT
out, as long as the PTT In remains active. After loss of the PTT In, the PTT
out will remain active for the programmed period of time before dropping,
thus allowing another unit to answer before the repeater drops. The ID-1
must be installed in series with the PTT line (i.e. ID-1 installed at break in
station PTT line) for this function to operate.
7.17.10 Output Control
Setting the output Control to “After PTT” will cause the ID message to be
sent following the last activation of the COR/COS/CTCSS, inhibit or
PTT inputs, provided the time is met that is programmed in the register ID
repeat time. setting the output control to “continuous” will cause the ID or
message to be sent at the expiration of a period equal to the delay time. For
example, if register ID repeat time is programmed as 10, the ID or message
will be sent every 10 minutes. This will occur during a conversation if one
is in progress when the timer goes off.
