Parameter Setting Mode
TOT Penalty
When transmission is shut down in the TOT mode, this function prohibits another transmission
during a selected TOT penalty period regardless of the PTT key being pressed. A beep sounds
when the PTT key is pressed during the TOT penalty period. If the PTT is continuously pressed
over both TOT and the TOT penalty period, this function will be automatically cancelled.

Time-Out-Timer (TOT)
The TOT feature is popular in repeater systems. It prohibits users from transmitting on the repeater
after a certain period of time has elapsed. By setting this function and activating it according to the
repeaters’ requirement, the radio alerts the user by a beep 5 seconds prior to time-out. When the
time is expired, transmitting stops and the transceiver automatically returns to the receiving mode.
This avoids the repeater going into its TOT mode. Until the PTT is released once and pressed again,
the transceiver will not transmit.
