VOICE OPERATED TRANSMISSION (VOX)

VOX operation allows you to transmit hands-free. VOX can only be used if you are using a supported headset. This function can be turned off for specific channels.

To activate VOX and set the VOX Gain level, perform the following steps:

1Connect the headset to the transceiver .

•The VOX function does not activate when a headset is not connected to the accessory terminal of the transceiver.

2With the transceiver power OFF, press and hold the Side 1 key while turning the transceiver power ON.

3Continue to hold the Side 1 key until a beep sounds.

•The LED indicator lights turn orange.

•When the Side 1 key is released, the transceiver will announces the VOX Gain level (the default level is OFF, so, a double beep sounds).

4Press the Side 1 key to select the VOX Gain level of the radio (from 1~10 or Off).

•Press the Side 2 key to turn VOX ON/OFF for the current channel (you can change this setting for each channel by selecting a channel with the Channel selector). When turned ON, a beep sounds. When turned OFF, a double beep sounds.

5Press the PTT switch to save the setting.

•A beep will sound.

•The transceiver announces the new VOX Gain level.

6Turn the transceiver power OFF and then ON again to activate VOX.

Note:

◆The transceiver will automatically return to normal operation if no action is performed for 5 seconds.

◆VOX Gain level 1 is the least sensitive and VOX Gain level 10 is the most sensitive.

◆If a headset is connected to the transceiver while the VOX function is switched ON and the VOX Gain level is configured to a higher, more sensitive level, louder received signals may cause the transceiver to start transmission.
