VX-8GR/GE OPERATING MANUAL 23
ADVANCED OPERATION
AUDIO MUTING
The Audio Mute feature is useful in situations where it would be helpful to reduce the
audio level of the “Receive Only” band (Small character display) whenever you receive a
signal on the “Main” band (Large character display) during Dual Receive operation.
To activate the Audio Mute feature:
1. Press the f key, then press the 7 key. This provides a “Short-
cut” to Set Mode Item 57: MUTE.
2. Rotate the DIAL knob to select the desired muting level
(MUTE 30%, MUTE 50%, MUTE 100%, or OFF).
3. When you have made your choice, press the PTT switch to save the new setting and
return to normal operation.
When the Audio Mute feature is activated, the “ ” icon will
appear on the display, and the “ ” icon blinks while muting the
“Receive Only” band audio.
To cancel the Audio Mute feature, just repeat the above proce-
dures, selecting “OFF” in step 2 above.
KEYPAD/LCD ILLUMINATION
Your VX-8GR/GE includes a reddish illumination lamp which aids in nighttime opera-
tion. The red illumination yields clear viewing of the display in a dark environment, with
minimal degradation of your night vision. Three options for activating the lamp are pro-
vided:
KEY 2sec - KEY 10sec: Illuminates the Keypad/LCD for the selected illumination
time when any key is pressed.
CONTINUOUS: Illuminates the Keypad/LCD continuously.
OFF: Disables the Keypad/LCD lamp.
Here is the procedure for setting up the Lamp mode:
1. Press and hold the m key for one second to enter the Set Mode.
2. Rotate the DIAL knob to select Set Mode Item 41: LAMP.
3. Press the m key briefly to enable selection of this Set Mode
Item.
4. Rotate the DIAL knob to select one of the three modes de-
scribed above.
5. When you have made your choice, press the PTT switch to
save the new setting and return to normal operation.
