BATTERY SAVER

The Battery Saver extends the operating time of the transceiver. It automatically activates when the squelch is closed and no key is pressed for more than 10 seconds. To reduce battery consumption, this function shuts the receiver circuit OFF for the programmed time, then momentarily turn it back ON to detect a signal.

To program the receiver shut-off period for the battery saver:

1Press [MENU].

2Turn the Tuning control to select Menu No. 16 (SAV).

3Press [MENU].

4Turn the Tuning control to select the receiver shut- off period from OFF, 0.2, 0.4, 0.6, 0.8, 1.0 (default), 2.0, 3.0, 4.0, and 5.0 seconds.

5Press [MENU] to store the setting or [PTT] to cancel.

Note:

◆The longer the shut-off period, the more you can save on battery consumption. However, there is a greater chance of missing a signal.

◆When the CTCSS/ DCS code matches during reception, the battery saver function is turned OFF.
