GT dealer programmable functions

Ask your dealer about programming your GT series with the following 

functions:  

The programmable buttons A/B/C/D can be tailored according to your 

need�  

In general, the radio will beep a “DU” sound when the programmed 

function is enabled (by either long press or short press)�  Repeat the same 
procedure to disable this function, and the radio will beep a “DuDu” sound 
as indicator�

 

1]  Priority Call: The radio will shift from the present working channel onto a pre-defined 

priority channel�  

2]  Emergency Siren/Call: Either a siren tone will sound at your own end or an Emergency 

code will be sent to others over the radio channel� Emergency Call is enabled by de-
fault and will automatically divert the radio to Channel 16� The cycle repeats 3 times 
before returning to normal�  

3]  Lone Worker: Provides a function that requires a user to press any button on their radio 

at least once every 15 minutes (programmable)� If the user fails to do so, the radio will 
send a pre-programmed emergency call sequence� Before sending the emergency 
call, a DUDUDU sound will sound to remind the user to press any button to re-start the 
timer�  Press C key for 3 seconds to turn on or turn radio off and back on to disable�

4]  Call 1/ Call 2: Transmits pre-set selcall (5 tone, 2 tone, or DTMF)
5]  Lock / Unlock: Prevents users from activating some function by accidental�  Once 

you activate the lock function, buttons C & D will be locked and a beep will sound 
sound when you press either�  Channel selection knob can also be locked via the PC 
programmer�

6]  Tx Power Selection: A Du sound indicates low Tx power; a DuDu sound indicates high 

Tx power�

7]  Whisper: It will increase mic sensitivity to make weak audio at your side to be heard by 

others loudly; however, background noise at your side will be increased too�

8]  Auto Tx: The radio will automatically transmit background audio without user needing 

to press the PTT�  The time intervals for auto Tx & Rx modes can be set through PC pro-
grammer� Turn off the radio to disable auto Tx� It is activated by the Emergency func-
tion and is programmed to Transmit for 10 seconds and then receive for 10 seconds� 
The cycle repeats 3 times before returning to normal�

9]  Voice Privacy/Scrambler: To provide basic protection against users of radio scanners 

or others who may be monitoring your channel, the GT incorporates a voice inversion 
scrambler to offer more confidential communications.  Other radios at the same fre-
quency will receive only distorted audio noise� It can be enabled by pressing button C 
while turning the radio on� To turn off scrambling turn radio off and back on�
