6 BASIC OPERATION IN OCF MODE
OCF is a conventional FM Mode with P25 common Air Interface.
6.1 TURNING THE RADIO ON
1. If set-up to turn the radio on and off, press the Power Button/Volume Dial. The display will
illuminate when the radio powers up. However, the Power Button can be configured differently as
described in Section 5.1.

2. Wait for the power-up sequence to complete, which takes approximately ten (10) seconds.
3. The radio will display the Channel Menu.
6.2 TURNING THE RADIO OFF
To turn the radio off, push and hold the Power Button/Volume Dial for approximately one-half of a
second (exact time is configurable).
In a multiple control head installation, turning off the last powered-up control head will also turn off the
radio.
Several user-selected radio settings (i.e., volume, pre-set buttons, and side tone levels) are maintained for
the next operational session. At the next radio power-up, maintained settings will automatically restore. In
multiple control head installations, settings are maintained for each control head position.
If power is abruptly disconnected from the radio prior to executing the correct turn-off
procedure, user-selected radio settings and last-tuned channel information will be lost.
6.3 PRESET BUTTONS
The front panel contains three buttons labeled A, B, and C. In OCF mode, the present buttons are used to
set channels.
