BACKGROUND OPERATIONS
Your dealer can activate a variety of transceiver functions to perform without any
additional operation on your part.

duration. If you continuously transmit for a preset time, the transceiver will stop
transmitting and an alert tone will sound. Release the microphone PTT switch.
SIGNAL STRENGTH INDICATOR

fl ashes when out of range (NXDN Trunking only).
COMPANDER
If programmed by your dealer for a channel, the compander will remove excessive
noise from transmitted signals, to provide higher clarity of signals.
BUSY CHANNEL LOCKOUT (BCL)
On Conventional channels, if BCL is set up by your dealer, you will be unable to
transmit if the channel is already in use. Use a different channel or wait until the
channel becomes free.
If BCL Override has been programmed, you can transmit over the current signal:
1 Press and hold the PTT switch.
• If the channel is already in use, a warning tone will sound.
2 Quickly release and then press the PTT switch again.
3 Speak into the microphone as you would during a normal call.
CONTROL CHANNEL HUNT
On digital Trunking channels, the transceiver automatically searches for a control
channel.
• While searching for a control channel, the antenna icon will fl ash and no signals can be
received.
PTT ID
PTT ID is the transceiver unique ID code which is sent each time the PTT switch
is pressed and/or released.
Note: PTT ID can be made only in analog operation.
