Kenwood TK-3160 instruction manual

LOW BATTERY WARNING

Low Battery Warning alerts you when the battery needs to be recharged or replaced. While transmitting or receiving, the LED will blink red when the battery power is low. If programmed by your dealer, a tone may also sound.

BUSY CHANNEL LOCKOUT (BCL)

When activated, BCL prevents you from interfering with other parties who may be using the same channel that you selected. Pressing the PTT switch while the channel is in use will cause your transceiver to emit an alert tone and transmission will be inhibited (you cannot transmit). Release the PTT switch to stop the tone and return to receive mode.

STUN

When the transceiver receives a call containing a stun code, either transmit mode will be disabled, or both receive mode and transmit mode will be disabled (default). (This function is used when a transceiver is stolen or lost.) Stun is cancelled when the transceiver receives a call with a revive code.

BEGINNING/ END OF TRANSMISSION (TX) SIGNAL

The Beginning of TX and End of TX identification signals are used to access and release some repeaters and telephone systems.

If Beginning of TX is set, the ID signal is transmitted when you press the PTT switch.

If End of TX is set, the ID signal is transmitted when you release the PTT switch.

If both are set, the ID signal is transmitted when you press and release the PTT switch.
