Selecting an Output Power

Each channel is programmed with either high or low
output power by your dealer. You can change the
output power of only channels programmed as high.
When you can reliably communicate with other
parties without using high power, select low power by
pressing the key programmed as RF Power Lo.
Each time you press RF Power Lo, the output power
toggles between high and low.
• Using low power conserves battery power and reduces
the risk of interfering with other communications.
• The "LO" icon appears when you are using low power.
Note:
◆
Pressing
low power causes an error tone to sound.
◆
When changing a channel from high power to low power, all
channels programmed with high power are changed to low.

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, the transceiver will
stop transmitting and an alert tone will sound. To
stop the tone, release the PTT switch.
Your dealer can program a warning function to alert
you before the TOT expires. Continuously
transmitting for the time specified by your dealer will
cause the warning tone to sound.
