Two types of VOX are available: built-in and external. If VOX has been set, when speaking voice reach the preset volume, VOX will activate the radio to transmit automatically. ■ Radio Setting TOT (Time-out Timer) 1) TOT dispatch time The TOT Dispatch Time is the maximum period of time that the radio is allowed to transmit continuously in normal dispatch mode. When the programmed time expires, the radio generates a warning tone and stops transmitting.
CTCSS/DCS The dealer can set CTCSS/DCS on the radio channels to ignore calls on the same channel from irrelevant radios. If a channel has been set with CTCSS/DCS, the squelch will be activated only when it receives the proper CTCSS/DCS signals. And only the radios set with the same CTCSS/DCS signaling as those on yours can hear your call. Note: Using a CTCSS/DCS channel doesn’t mean your calls are private. If the CTCSS/DCS tones of other radios are identical with those on yours, they can hear your calls.
During scanning, if the priority channel has been set on the radio, when the priority channel receives signals the radio will automatically switch to the priority channel even the normal channel is receiving signals at that time. And the radio will stay on the priority channel till the signals disappear. The dealer can set the delay time between signal disappearing and continuing scanning.
