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. 11 (TOT).

3 Press [SET] to select the desired TOT time from 3, 5,

and 10 (default) minutes.

4 Press [MNU] again to 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. 10 (APO).

3 Press [SET] to toggle the function ON or OFF (default).

4 Press [MNU] again to exit Menu mode.
