MISCELLANEOUS

Out-Of-Range - If this tone sounds shortly after pressing the PTT switch and “OUT RNGE” is displayed, the transceiver was unable to contact a repeater. The usual cause for this is an out-of-range condition (see “Operation At Extended Range” on page 54). Once this tone sounds, no more access attempts are made until the PTT switch is released and then pressed again. This condition is not indicated with conventional operation.

Time-Out Timer - If this tone sounds after the transmitter has been keyed for an extended period and “TIMEOUT” is displayed, the trans- mitter has been disabled by the Time-Out Timer feature (see page 29). This tone sounds with both LTR and conventional operation. Ten seconds before this tone sounds, a single beep sounds to indicate that time-out will soon occur.

Transmit Inhibit - If this tone sounds as soon as the PTT switch is pressed with an LTR system selected and “TX INHIB” is displayed, the transmitter has been disabled by the Transmit Inhibit feature (see page 41).

Transmit Disable On Busy - If this tone sounds as soon as the push-to-talk switch is pressed with a conventional system selected and “DSBL BSY” is displayed, the channel is busy and the transmitter was disabled by the Transmit Disable On Busy feature (see page 44).

Receive-Only Channel - If this tone sounds as soon as the push-to-talk switch is pressed with a conventional system selected and “TX DSBL” is displayed, the channel is receive-only (see page 29).

Tx While Receiving Call - If the push-to-talk switch is pressed while receiving a LTR call, this tone sounds and “DSBL BSY” is displayed.

Proceed (Clear-To-Talk) Tone - This is a short tone which sounds after the push-to-talk switch is pressed to indicate when talking can begin (see page 28). A loud (two-pitch) tone may also be programmed.

Key Press Tone - This is a short tone that indicates when an option switch is pressed (all modes).
