T - Run / View Self Test Info. Not Available In Built In Menu
This option causes the radio to execute a series of self tests and may take about 15 seconds to
complete. There are several checksum or CRC tests here that return OK or an Error. If a CRC
test fails it may be best to call technical support to discuss the problems. There are also some
battery and temperature tests. The temperature test often fails and it is normal if the temperature
is not at room temperature. The temperature reading should be close to ambient temperature.
