SCAN DELAY
Scan delay lets the radio receive a response to a transmission before
scanning the other channels for activity. If you find that your scanner is
restarting before message replies are received, you can ask your dealer
to increase the scan delay time (0-7.5 seconds).
This timer is also used to allow for Talkback Scan.
HI/LO POWER
Each channel in the radio can be individually programmed to always
transmit in low-power mode, regardless of the radio’s
[LPW]
button
(or microphone keypad
[FCN]
menu setting). If the programming for
the channel allows high-power transmissions, the power level can be
selected with the
[LPW]
button or the keypad
[FCN]
menu.
DTMF ENCODING
Radios with keypad-equipped microphones can be programmed to
enable DTMF (Dual Tone Multiple Frequency) encoding. To send DTMF
tones (similar to the tones used by a standard push-button telephone):
1. Press and hold the PTT switch.
2. Press any of the keys on the microphone’s keypad.
You will hear a sidetone.
The FCN, PRI, ENT, and CLR keys respond as DTMF tones A, B, C, and
D, respectively.
ANI ENCODING
ANI encoding (Automatic Number Identification), if enabled, transmits a
sequence of DTMF tones each time you press the PTT switch. You will
hear a sidetone. Your dealer can program the ANI number to be sent.
If DTMF and ANI are both enabled, the ANI tone sequence is transmitted
only after the LAA0290 microphone’s
[ENT]
key is pressed while the
PTT switch is activated. You will hear a sidetone.
TIME-OUT TIMER
The transmit Time-Out Timer limits the duration of calls and guards
against accidentally locking on the transmitter and tying up the radio
system. Your dealer can program the duration of the Time-Out Timer
(15-225 seconds, or disabled).
