KEYPAD FUNCTIONS

PTT Key
The PTT key (7) is located at the left side of the radio. Pressing the PTT key will acti-
vate transmission mode. The LED (6) will light red.
Function Key 1 / 2
The function keys 1 and 2 (8) are located under the PTT key (7). They can be indiviu-
ally programmed with one of these functions:
Off
no function available
Alarm
By pressing the function key (8) a constant alarm tone is audible. Transmission and
reception modes are blocked. To turn off the alarm, press the function key (8) or turn
the radio off.
Monitor
The monitor function deactivates the squelch and the typical constant noise is audi-
ble. Weak signals that would not pass the squelch and signals that are CTCSS/DCS
encoded can be heard with the monitor function.
TX Power
The low tx power is indicated by a single warn tone and the high tx power by a dou-
ble-tone.
Note:
With the versions PMR and FreeNet, the low tx power are fixed to 300 mW and the
high value to 500 mW. With the COM versions the max. tx power is 4 W for UHF
and 5 W for VHF. The low and high tx power values can be set via software accor-
ding to the commercial radio licence.

ADDITIONAL FUNCTIONS

The following functions are managed via software. This applies to activation and change
of settings.
scan
The scan function searches signals on the programmed frequencies that are added to
the scan list. A programmed channel can be added or deleted from the scan list via
software. The scan list needs to contain at least two channels.
If the scan function is actived, channel 16 is reserved for this function and communi-
cation is no longer possible on this channel. Once a signal is detected the LED lights
green, the scan function is paused and the radio remains on the channel until the end
of the signal. Then, after appr. 3 seconds, the scan function continuous.
To end the scan function leave channel 16 by switching to another channel.
VOX
VOX, the voice-activated transmission mode has to be activated via software.
As soon as the voice reaches a certain volume level, transmission starts automati-
cally, no pushing of the PTT key is required. The VOX sensitivity can be set according
to the individual need in the range between 1-9.
To deactive the VOX function while receiving signals, the function VOX Inhibit can be
activated.
CTCSS/DCS
39 CTCSS and 166 DCS (83 plus 83 reversed) codes are available to filter-out un-
wanted signals, i.e. with activated CTCSS/DCS coding, only signals with the matching
code are audible. Signals with differing codes are muted.
Each channel can be assigned to one CTCSS/DCS code for the transmission fre-
quency and one code for the reception frequency.
Note: CTCSS/DCS does not guarantee privacy. Encoded signals are received by ra-
dios that do not use CTCSS/DCS. Also, using the monitor function makes
CTCSS/DCS encoded signals audible.
squelch
The squelch sensitivity can be set via software, on a scale between 0 and 9. With the
value 0, the squelch is turned off and the entire frequency is audible. With value 9,
only the strongest signals will pass through the filter.
warn tone
A short beep tone is audible when another channel is selected or when the radio is
turned on.
The warn tone function has to be activated via software.
