TIME-OUT TIMER (TOT)
It is sometimes necessary or desirable to restrict a single
transmission to a specific maximum time. You may use
this function to prevent repeater time-outs when
accessing repeaters, or to conserve battery power.
When TOT times out, the transceiver generates beeps
and automatically returns to receive mode. To resume
transmitting, release and then press Mic [PTT] again.
Access Menu 1–9–4 (TOT) and select 3, 5, or 10
(default) minutes for the TOT time.
AUTOMATIC POWER OFF (APO)
Automatic Power Off is a background function that
monitors whether any buttons or keys have been
pressed, or whether the Tuning control has been turned.
After 3 hours pass with no operations, APO turns OFF
the power. However, 1 minute before the power turns
OFF, “APO” appears and blinks, and a series of warning
tones sound.
Access Menu 1–9–3 (APO) and select “ON”.
Note: If any settings are changed during the 3 hour period while APO is
ON, the timer resets. When you stop changing the settings, the timer
begins counting again from 0.
