AUXILIARY FUNCTIONS
TIME-OUT TIMER (TOT)
It is sometimes necessary or desirable to restrict a single
transmission to a specific maximum time. This feature
can be useful when accessing repeaters to prevent
repeater time-outs, or when trying 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.
You can change the default TOT time (10 minutes).
1 Press [MNU] to enter Menu mode.
2 Select Menu No. 13 (TOT).
3 Press [OK], then turn the Tuning control to select the
desired TOT time .
• The selectable time are 3, 5, and 10 minutes.
4 Press [OK] again to complete the setting and exit
Menu mode.
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.
Note: If the squelch opens or any settings are changed during the 3 hour
period while APO is ON, the timer resets. When the squelch closes or
you stop changing the settings, the timer begins counting again from 0.
1 Press [MNU] to enter Menu mode.
2 Select Menu No. 12 (APO).
3 Press [OK], then turn the Tuning control to switch the
function ON (or OFF).
4 Press [OK] again to compete the setting and exit
Menu mode.
