BACKGROUND OPERATIONS
TIME-OUT TIMER (TOT)
The purpose of the Time-out Timer is to prevent any caller from using a channel
for an extended period of time.
If you continuously transmit for a period of time that exceeds the programmed time
set by your dealer (default is 1 minute), the transceiver will stop transmitting and
an alert tone will sound. To stop the tone, release the microphone PTT switch.
Your dealer can program the TOT time in the range of 15 seconds to 20 minutes.
BUSY CHANNEL LOCKOUT (BCL)
When activated, BCL prevents you from interfering with other parties who may
be using the same channel that you selected. Pressing the microphone PTT
switch while the channel is in use will cause your transceiver to emit an alert tone
and transmission will be inhibited (you cannot transmit). Release the PTT switch
to stop the tone and return to receive mode.
If activated, you can override this function. To override BCL, press the
microphone PTT switch again immediately after releasing it (within half a
second).
Note: Ask your dealer for an explanation on how BCL functions when using QT, DQT, DTMF, 5-tone,
or FleetSync signaling.
SIGNAL STRENGTH INDICATOR
The signal strength indicator displays the strength of received calls:
Strong signal
Medium signal
Weak signal
Very weak signal
BEGINNING/ END OF TRANSMIT SIGNAL
The Beginning of Transmit and End of Transmit identification signals are used to
access and release some repeaters.
If Beginning of Transmit is set, the ID signal is transmitted when you press the
microphone PTT switch.
If End of Transmit is set, the ID signal is transmitted when you release the
microphone PTT switch.
If both are set, the ID signal is transmitted when you press and release the
microphone PTT switch.
