Function key timer

Push [FUNC] to enter the Function mode, and then 

push a keypad key to activate its second function.

 • While in the Function mode, “ ” is displayed on the 

LCD.

Set the time between when the Function mode is 

entered, and how long it remains activated after you 

push the keypad key to activate its second function. 

 

(Default: F0.At)

 • F0.At: 

 Exits the Function mode immediately 

after a key is pushed to activate its 

second function.

 • F1/2/3.At:  The Function mode remains activated 1, 

2 or 3 seconds after a key is pushed to 

activate its second function.

 • F .m: 

 The Function mode remains activated 

until [FUNC] is pushed again, even after 

a key is pushed to activate its second 

function.

LCD backlight

Select the LCD Backlight function. 

(Default: LIG.At)

 • LIG.OF:   Turns the backlight function OFF.

 • LIG.ON:   Lights continuously while the transceiver 

is ON.

 • LIG.At:   Turns ON when an operation occurs, and 

turns OFF after 5 seconds.

VOX gain

Set the VOX gain to between 1 and 10. Higher values 

make the VOX function more sensitive to your voice.

To turn OFF the VOX function, select “VOX.OF.” 

 

(Default: VOX.05)

NOTE:

 Set the microphone gain before setting the 

VOX gain. See page 11-4 for details of the VOX 

function.

MIC gain

Set the microphone gain to between 1 and 4, to suit 

your preference. Higher values makes the microphone 

more sensitive to your voice. 

(Default: mic.2)

NOTE:

 When using the VOX function, we 

recommend setting the microphone gain to 3. 

However, you can adjust it to suit your operating 

environment (including your headset performance).

VOX delay

The VOX Delay is the amount of time the transmitter 

stays ON after you stop speaking.  (Default: VXd.10)

 • VXd.05: 0.5 seconds delay

 • VXd.10: 1 second delay

 • VXd.15: 1.5 seconds delay

 • VXd.20: 2 seconds delay

 • VXd.25: 2.5 seconds delay

 • VXd.30: 3 seconds delay

VOX time-out timer

Set the VOX time-out timer to between 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 

10, and 15 minutes, to prevent accidental prolonged 

transmission by the VOX function. To turn OFF the 

function, select “Vto.OF.” 

(Default: 3)

The “VOX time-out timer” item in the Set mode

The VOX time-out timer 

is set to 3 minutes.

VOX time-out timer 

is set to 15 minutes 

(maximum).

The VOX time-out timer must be set shorter than the 

Time-out timer, otherwise the VOX time-out timer will 

not function.
