Voice Activation (VOX)

The FR-314 has internal circuitry which will allow it to operate hands free. The voice activation circuitry will activate the transmitter as if the PTT button were pressed whenever its microphone detects the users voice. This feature is particularly useful when using an external microphone. To activate the Vox mode, press the function button three times or until the vox icon flashes on the LCD. The transceiver will show the current status with the words “on or off”. Use the up or down buttons to select the vox mode on or off. After adjustment, the FR-314 will return to the standby state if no buttons are pressed for 5 seconds, or if the call or PTT buttons are pressed. If vox operation has been selected the vox icon will display on the LCD.
