3.5.7 Setting the Frequency Mode
The RAY215E can transmit and receive on all available International
marine VHF radiotelephone channels. With a software upgrade, the
RAY215E can also communicate on the US channel set.
If the US channel set option has been installed, pressing SCAN/MEM
and MULTI key simultaneously toggles between International and US
modes. When the International mode has been selected, the INT indicator
is illuminated. When the US mode has been selected, the INT indicator is
extinguished. There is no separate indicator for US mode.
Note: Some countries require special licensing to activate the US
channels.
3.5.8 Transmitting
Press the Push-To-Talk key (PTT) and speak into the microphone using a
clear normal voice. If the current channel is a TX prohibited channel, an
alarm will sound when PTT is pressed indicating such a transmission is
not permitted.
If the PTT key is pressed and held enabling the transmitter continuously
for 5 minutes, the RAY215E will automatically disable the transmitter.
Once PTT is released, the transmitter will be re-enabled.
