5. Functions of Programmable
Buttons
Long Press Duration: Amount of time that the radio-
user is required to press (and hold down) a button, for
the press to be interpreted by the radio as a long
press. A short press is defined as any button-press
that is shorter than the duration.
The dealer can assign one of the following auxiliary
functions to the long press or short press of the
programmable button 1 and programmable button 2:
● None: No function is assigned.
● Monitor Momentary
Press and hold th e preprogram med Monitor
Momentary button to open squelch for monitoring the
tra n smi ssi o n on t he cha n nel w h eth e r the
CTCSS/DCS, audio squelch conditions match or not.
Release it to exit monitor mode.
● Monitor
Press the preprogrammed Monitor button to open
squelch for monitoring the transmission on the
channel whether the CTCSS/DCS, audio squelch
conditions match or not. Press it again to exit monitor
mode.
● Squelch Off Momentary
Press and hold the preprogrammed Squelch Off
Momentary button to open squelch momentarily, and
release it to resume normal operation.
● Squelch Off
Press the preprogrammed Squelch Off button to open
squelch, and press it again to resume normal
operation.
● Channel Annunciation
Press the preprogrammed Channel Annunciation
button, the current channel number can be heard.
● Scan
Press the preprogrammed Scan button to start
scanning (the scan list should be effective), press it
9 10
again during the scanning to stop scanning.
● High/Low Power Switch
Press the preprogrammed High/Low Power Switch
button to switch the current channel power between
high and low.
● Battery Check
Press the preprogrammed Battery Check button, the
current battery power level can be heard. There are
four levels in all. Level 4 indicates that the battery
power is full, and level 1 indicates that the battery
power is low.
● Squelch Adjust
Press the preprogrammed Squelch Adjust button to
change the current squelch level, and the squelch
level after the change can be heard.
● VOX
VOX function enables you to use the radio without
manual operations. This function can only be set by
the dealer, and you have to be equipped with the
specified earphones.
Before using VOX, you must set VOX gain level.
Such setting enables the radio to identify the voice
volume. If the microphone is too sensitive, the
background noise will trigger the radio to transmit. If
the microphone is not sensitive enough, it cannot
receive your voice when you speak. Make sure to
adjust the VOX gain level to proper sensitivity.
6. Scan Function
(this fun ction can b e disable d by the deal er)
If the scan function is enabled, you can press the
preprogrammed Scan button to start scanning and
press it again to stop scanning.
Explanations:
● After scan pauses, there are two ways to resume
scanning:
(1) Time operate: After pausing on an active channel,
the radio will resume scanning after a preprogrammed
delay. The scan delay time can be preset from 0.5 to
5 seconds.
(2) Carrier operate: After pausing on an active
channel, the radio will resume scanning after a
preprogrammed delay after the channel becomes
inactive. The scan delay time can be preset from 0.5
to 5 seconds.
● The revert channel during scan can be designated
through PC software. There are following options
available:
(1) Last Rx channel:
When pressing the PTT button during scanning, the
radio will transmit from the last channel that received
a call.
(2) Designated Tx channel:
When pressing the PTT button during scanning, the
radio will transmit from the selected channel.
(3) Priority channel (the priority channel must be set)
When pressing the PTT button during scanning, the
radio will transmit from the priority channel in the scan
list.
(4) Last Tx channel:
When pressing the PTT button during scanning, the
radio will transmit from the last channel that transmits
signals.
(5) Selected channel:
When pressing the PTT button during scanning, the
radio will transmit from the channel selected by the
channel selector knob.
11 12
● You can choose to set one of the following 3
operations when the channel is switched during
scanning:
(1) No operation.
(2) Scan the current channel: The scanning will pause
on the current channel, and the pause time will be the
Dropout Delay Time. However, this channel will not be
added to the scan list.
(3) Exit scanning.
● Power-on scanning: If this function is enabled, the
radio will start scanning after the radio power is turned
on.
7. Auxiliary Functions
7.1 Time-Out Timer (TOT)
(1) TOT Function
The time-out-timer can prevent the user from
continuously talking overlong and prevent the radio
from heating due to continuous transmitting.
If you continuously transmit longer than the preset
TOT time, the radio will make an alert tone and stop
transmitting. To stop the warning tone, release the
PTT button.
(2) TOT Pre-alert
The radio will make an alert tone in advance before
the TOT terminates the transmission. After the alert
tone, when the time of transmission exceeds the
preset time, the TOT timer will act.
(3) TOT Rekey Time
A period in which the radio is forbidden to transmit
after its overtime activity.
During the period, if the PTT button is pressed, an
alert tone will be sounded, and the transmission is
forbidden.
(4) TOT Reset Time
The time delay from releasing the PTT button to the
resetting of the timer is limited.
The countdown will go on if the time after releasing
the PTT key is shorter than the reset time.
7.2 Busy Channel Lockout (BCL)
If the channel on which a user attempts to transmit is
being used by another party, BCL function restricts
the transmission in order to avoid interfering with the
other parties' communication, and the radio will make
an alert tone, and returns to the receiving state.
7.3 Battery Saving
The battery saving function can reduce power
consumption of the radio when no signal is received
and no operation is conducted (no button is pressed
and no knob is turned).
If the radio hasn't receive any signal or no operation
is being conducted for 8 seconds, the radio will
enter Battery Saving Mode. When a signal is
received or any operation occurs, the radio will exit
the Battery Saving Mode automatically.
7.4 Low Battery Warning
When the battery voltage drops too low while
transmitting, the LED flashes red, low battery warning
tone sounds, and the radio stops transmitting. You
need to recharge or change the battery.
7.5 Monitor
When there is no signal received, the radio's squelch
circuit will mute the speaker automatically so that the
background noise will not be heard by the user. You
can press and hold the preprogrammed Monitor
button to open squelch manually. This function is
especially useful when you need to adjust the volume
level or to receive weak signals.
When the Monitor button is pressed and held, the
LED indicator lights green, and the radio is in the
13 14
monitoring state.
7.6 CTCSS/DCS
CTCSS/DCS tones may have been pre-programmed
on some radio channels. A CTCSS/DCS tone is a
sub-audible tone, which allows you to ignore (not
hear) calls from other irrelevant parties who are using
the same channel. When you receive a signal that
has a tone different from the one set on your radio,
you will not hear the signal. Likewise, signals that you
transmit will only be received by parties whose
CTCSS/DCS tones are the same as yours.
Note: Using a CTCSS/DCS channel doesn't mean
your calls are private. If other parties' CTCSS/DCS
tones are identical with yours, they can hear your
calls.
7.7 PTT ID
PTT ID uses DTMF code. The preset DTMF
sequence can be sent at the beginning of the
transmission or at the end of the transmission. It is
used to notify the identity of the callers to the
monitoring center, or used to activate the repeater.
The encoder sequence and the encoder type can be
set for each channel. There are 16 groups of
sequences for your selection.
PTT ID Keydown Code: The radio will send DTMF
sequence when the PTT button is pressed.
PTT ID Dekey Code: The radio will send DTMF
sequence when the PTT button is released.
