Receive Battery Saver Setup
An important feature of the VXA-220 is its Receive Bat-
tery Saver, which “puts the radio to sleep” for a time in-
terval, periodically “waking it up” to check for activity. If
somebody is talking on the channel, the
VXA-220 will
remain in the “active” mode, then resume its “sleep”
cycles. This feature significantly reduces quiescent bat-
tery drain, and you may change the amount of “sleep”
time between activity checks using the Menu System:
Press the [ F
] key mo-
mentarily, then press the
[
(
SET
)] key to acti-
vate the Menu (“SET”)
mode.
Rotate the
DIAL
selec-
tor knob to select Menu
Item “RSAV.”
Press the [ ENT
( )] key
to enable adjustment of
this Menu Item.
Rotate the
DIAL
selector knob to select the desired
“duty cycle” (receive:sleep). The selections available
are 1:1, 1:2, 1:3, 1:4, 1:5, and ABS
or oFF. The de-
fault value is 1:1.
When you have made your selection, press the
[
ENT
( )] key to save the new setting, and then press
the PTT key to exit to normal operation.
: ABS: Automatic Battery Saver, based on activity on
the receiver.
The setting of 1:5 will promote the greatest conservation
of battery capacity, but the receiver’s response time to in-
coming calls will be slowed somewhat.
Note
: This feature does not operate during Scan or Dual
Watch.
