VOICE OPERATED TRANSMISSION (VOX)
If enabled by your dealer, VOX operation allows you to transmit
hands-free. VOX can only be used if you are using a supported
headset. This function can be turned off for specific channels by
your dealer. To activate VOX and set the VOX Gain level, perform
the following steps:
1 Connect the headset to the transceiver .
• The VOX function does not activate when a headset is not
connected to the accessory terminal of the transceiver.
2 With the transceiver power OFF, press and hold the Side key
while turning the transceiver power ON.
• Continue to hold the Side key until the LED blinks green and red,
and a beep sounds.
3 Rotate the Channel selector to set the VOX Gain level.
• The VOX Gain level can be adjusted from level 1 to 10 and OFF.
Channel numbers 1 to 10 represent VOX Gain levels 1 to 10.
Channel numbers 11 to S set the VOX Gain to OFF.
• To turn the VOX function off, set the VOX Gain level to OFF.
4 Press and hold the Side key for 2 seconds to save the
setting.
• A beep will sound.
• To test the setting, speak into the microphone in your normal
voice. The LED will light orange when the VOX function is
operating.
5 Turn the transceiver power OFF and then ON again to
activate VOX.
Note:
◆ If a headset is connected to the transceiver while the VOX
function is switched ON and the VOX Gain level is configured to
a higher, more sensitive level, louder received signals may cause
the transceiver to start transmission.
◆ The VOX Gain Level can only be adjusted if it is activated by your
dealer.
