Radio controls and indicators

Your Tait Orca handportable controls and indicators

include the on/off/volume control, the 16-way selector, side

panel keys, keypad, and various radio indicators.
Many of the keys can have functions assigned to both short

and long presses. A short keypress is defined as less than

one second. You may need to experiment to become familiar

with how long short and long keypresses are.

On/off/volume control

Rotating the on/off/volume control clockwise turns on the

radio and increases volume. Rotating the control counter-

clockwise decreases volume and turns off the radio. This

also controls the volume level of indicators and confidence

tones.
To preserve battery life, it is recommended that you turn off

the radio when it is not in use.

16-way selector

Each position on the 16-way selector can be prepro-

grammed for:

Trunking mode preset calls: Change to the assigned

position and press the PTT to initiate a trunked call.

Conventional channels: Change to the assigned position

to automatically switch the radio into conventional

mode.

Changing network: Change to the assigned position and

press the PTT to change to a different trunking

network.

What preset calls, networks and conventional channels are

available for your radio may be listed on the custom settings

page on the inside back cover of this manual.
The label displayed for each position on the 16-way selector

can describe what option is available.
