MISCELLANEOUS SETTING

SPLIT TONE OPERATION

The FTM-10Rcan be operated in a “Split Tone” configuration, to enable operation on repeaters using a mix of both CTCSS and DCS control.

1.Press and hold the [VOL/SEL] key for one second to activate the Menu mode.

2.Rotate the DIAL knob to select Menu Item “F37 SQL.EXP”.

3.Press the key to enable selection of this Menu item.

4.Rotate the DIAL knob to set this Menu item to “ON” (to enable the Split Tone feature)

5.Press the [VOL/SEL] key momentarily to save the new setting and exit to normal op- eration.

When the Split Tone feature is activated, you can see the following additional parameters following the “DCS” parameter (while selecting the tone mode via Menu item “F40 SQL TYPE”):

DCS ENC: DCS Encode only (the “DCS” icon will blink during operation).

TONE DCS: Encodes a CTCSS Tone and Decodes a DCS code (the “T” icon will blink and the “DCS” icon will appear during operation).

DCS TSQL: Encodes a DCS code and Decodes a CTCSS Tone (the “TSQ” icon will appear and the “DCS” icon will blink during operation)

CTCSS/DCS/EPCS BELL OPERATION

During CTCSS Decode, DCS, or EPCS operation, you may set up the FTM-10Rso that a ringing “bell” sound alerts you when a call is coming in.

1.Press and hold the [VOL/SEL] key for one second to activate the Menu mode.

2.Rotate the DIAL knob to select Menu Item “F35 SQL BELL”.

3.Press the key to enable selection of this Menu Item.

4.Rotate the DIAL knob to set the desired number of rings of the Bell. The available choices are 1, 3, 5, or 8 rings, CONT (continuous ringing), or OFF.

5.Press the [VOL/SEL] key momentarily to save the new setting and exit to normal op- eration.

When you are called by a station whose transceiver is sending a CTCSS tone, DCS code, or CTCSS code pair which matches that set into your Decoder, the Bell will ring in accor- dance with this programming.
