nMute Hang Time

When using Speaker Mute, you may want to adjust the time interval between when you receive a signal and when the speaker is muted.

1 Enter Menu mode and access Menu 107 (MUT.HNG) {page 20}.

2Set the hang time to 125, 250, 500, 750, or 1000 ms.

Selecting an Output Power

It is a good idea to select lower transmit power if communications is still reliable. This lowers the risk of interfering with others on the band. When operating from battery power, you will enjoy more operating time before a recharge is necessary.

Press [LOW] to select high (H) (K, E types only), medium (M), or low (L) power. .

• You can program different power settings for bands A and B.

Note: When the transceiver overheats because of ambient high temperature or continuous transmission, the protective circuit may function to lower transmit output power.

TIME-OUT TIMER (TOT)

It is sometimes necessary or desirable to restrict a single transmission to a specific maximum time. You may use this function to prevent repeater time-outs when accessing repeaters, or to conserve battery power.

When TOT times out (default is 10 minutes), the transceiver generates beeps and automatically returns to receive mode. To resume transmitting, release and then press the microphone [PTT] again.

1Enter Menu mode and access Menu 109 (TOT) {page 20}.

2Set the timer to 3, 5, or 10 minutes.
