In Conventional Group, you can enable/disable this tone
for each channel.
In Trunking system, you can enable/disable this tone
when transmitting the Dispatch ID or Telephone ID. This
helps avoid transmitting 2 or more different types of tones
simultaneously, since some repeaters have a similar
function for Telephone IDs.
You can enable/disable the PTT Release Tone using
KPG-89D.

PTT Proceed Tone

This tone sounds when the channel becomes available
after pressing the PTT switch. You can configure the
Proceed Tone to sound.
In LTR Trunking System, a user should start transmitting
when the repeater becomes available after pressing the
PTT switch. However, this duration is not constant, so it
is difficult for the user to confirm the time to start
transmitting. With this tone enabled, the user can
smoothly communicate by starting transmission after the
Proceed Tone sounds.
You can also use this tone in the Conventional Group
scan.
You can configure the Proceed Tone to sound using KPG-
89D.
Note:
" The audio tone is not transmitted until the Proceed Tone sounds
even if a user starts transmitting by pressing the PTT switch.
" When the PTT ID is configured to the channel while transmitting
DTMF/2-tone/FleetSync, the PTT Proceed Tone configuration
resets. In this case, the PTT ID Sidetone (FleetSync) or the
Sidetone (DTMF) is enabled.
