To enter the radio’s emergency mode, hold down the EMG
button for 2 seconds.
The radio will alternately flash and Channel number/Frequency.
The radio will now alternate between 30 seconds of hands-free
transmission and 30 seconds of hands-free receiving. This loop will
continue until you exit the emergency mode.
To exit emergency mode, press the PTT button.
1. The busy channel lockout feature will be disabled during
emergency mode.
2. When the battery is low, the radio can still transmit.
3. Settings of the emergency mode can be altered by the
distributor using the configuration software.
Squelch Level Setting
The adjustable Squelch allows you to optimize the radio’s sensitivity.
It also allows you to increase the sensitivity and receive weaker
signals. There are 5 sensitivity levels. The squelch level is indicated by
the icon and bar icons next to it on the display.
1. Press MON/FUNC until the current squelch level flashes and
appears.
2. Press UP/DOWN to increase or decrease the squelch level.
3. Press PTT to set or MON/FUNC to continue set up.
Level 1 is the most sensitive level, which means the radio can
receive a very weak signal. While at level 5, the radio can only receive
stronger signals. In some cases the latter is preferable to prevent
sensitivity to numerous strong signals in adjacent channels that
might interfere (intermodulation). This can be especially true in the
case of an environment with a high density of users.
