4.2.7 Dwell Display User-Selectable
The top line of the dwell display for OpenSky trunked mode operation is always the selected talk group
for the profile of the particular radio. In OpenSky Conventional FM, it is always the selected channel.
What appears in the bottom line depends on the choice made as a dwell display option. From dwell
display, press Select to change the bottom line display option by cycling through available options.
Whatever the preference, the radio will respond dynamically to changes in status, always displaying the
current information about the current network connection. The bottom line indicates the currently
selected profile, received talk group/caller ID/alias, V-TAC mode, V-TAC channel, or radio channel. To
set one of these bottom line options, press the Select button from the dwell display. For V-TAC
installations in a V-TAC mode, V-TAC mode or V-TAC channel can also be displayed. If a menu is not
enabled it is not available for display in the bottom line of the dwell display.
Table 4-3 shows the Basic Menu Structure and some options available. Available profiles, talk groups,
and channels vary widely from network to network depending on system hardware, and option
configuration.
Visible menu items will vary depending on the system, hardware, and option
configuration.
4.3 ADJUSTING DISPLAY & BUTTON BACKLIGHT BRIGHTNESS
The radio uses a light sensor on the front panel to automatically adjust display brightness and button
backlight brightness to ambient light conditions. The display and backlights automatically brighten at
higher external light levels and automatically dim at lower external light levels. However, the “Bright
Menu” gives the user some manual brightness control as follows:
1. Use the ▲ or ▼ button to scroll through the menu until “Bright Menu” appears. A “<< >>” symbol
appears in the top line of the display.
2. Use the ◄ button to reduce the brightness or the ► button to increase the brightness. Display and
button backlight brightness will immediately dim or brighten.
4.4 STEALTH MODE
The radio’s display illumination and button backlighting can be completely turned off using stealth mode.
Turn stealth mode on and off as follows:
1. Use the ▲ and ▼ buttons to cycle through the menu until “StealthMenu” appears.
2. To immediately turn stealth mode on, press either the ◄ button or the ► button once.
3. To turn stealth mode off, press any button on the radio’s front panel.
When stealth mode is on, the radio continues to scan the programmed list of talk groups and the user can
key-up on the selected talk group.
With stealth mode on, pressing any radio button other than the mic’s PTT button or the
emergency button on front panel will immediately turn stealth mode off. For example,
pressing the ▼ button on the front panel will turn stealth mode off.
