Operation with Standard Features

To fit your particular needs, a number of features are avail- able to enhance the operation of your P110 radio. These capability features are described for you in this section.

Time-Out Timer

The Time-Out Timer (T.O.T) feature alerts you if the trans- mitter is keyed for a long period. This feature prevents chan- nel tie-up and excess battery drain in case of an inadvertent keying of the transmitter. The radio operates normally in the receive mode with the T.O.T. feature. However, in the trans- mit mode, a single transmission (uninterrupted depression of the PTT button) “times-out” after 30 or 60 seconds and the radio reverts back to the receive mode, even with the PTT button remaining depressed. After the 30 or 60 second time out, a continuous alert tone is generated in the receive mode until the PTT button is released.

Volume Set

When programmed as a Vol- ume Set button, the Control button will initiate the volume set feature. This gives the radio the ability to monitor the current radio volume level whenever this button is pressed. A “rushing noise” is present for the duration of the button press that indicates the current level setting of the vol- ume control.
