DYNAMIC / ELECTRET SWITCH FCC ID: B5DTR200 S / N : P / N : 7 0 6 8 1- BATTERY COMPARTMENT Features Volume ON/OFF Control: This thumbwheel control serves as both an on/off switch and as a volume control. The transceiver is turned off when the control is in the extreme counterclockwise position, when viewed from the front, and the vol- ume is loudest when the control is in the extreme clockwise position.
Push-to-Talk/Lock-to-Talk Switch: For Model TR-200, this switch enables the talk function. Press the button and hold down as long as required (Push-to-talk function), or if continuous talk is required (lock-to-talk function), quickly press the button two times to lock on. To release the talk function, press the button one time.
