The above functions should be set in by software only, not by key
operation.

MONI
key
again to resume squelch. This is factory default operation.

MONI
key to resume squelch.This is set by
programming software as an option.
Many repeaters require a CTCSS tone
or a DCS code encode setting as a “key”
to access the system, so-called “selective-
calling”. Sometimes, CTCSS or DCS
decode features are used on the output of a
repeater so they can be used as a squelch.
In this mode, regardless of the main squelch
status, the audio can be heard ONLY when
the matching tone/code signal is received.
The combination of CTCSS squelch and
DCS function is not available; only one or the other may be used for a
given channel.The operation is available on VFO and memory mode.
Dealer-Preprogrammed units can't operate this function manually. In
the memory mode, the setting is temporary; changing the channel or
turning off the radio will erase the setting.
Press
1.
TS/DCS
key. The current setting will be displayed with
T/SQ/
DCS
icons and relative frequency/code. Press the same key to
select
T/SQ/DCS
setting.
The numbers (such as 88.5) represent the CTCSS frequency in
2.
Hz. When it is displayed with the icon only, the unit transmits
the sub-audible tone while the PTT is pressed (encode) and the
repeater access is enabled (assuming the repeater is using 88.5Hz
tone).
Press the same key again so that the
3.
icon shows up on the
display. This is the CTCSS decode frequency. This enables CTCSS
squelch (or Tone Squelch, TSQ).
Press it again so that the 3-digit number and
4.
icon is displayed.
This is the DCS code, and it enables DCS encoding and decoding.
For 2-4, rotate the main dial or press the [

change tone or code. Press any key ( Except
