Automatic Time-Out Timer

If the selected channel has been programmed for automatic time-out, you must limit
the length of each transmission. While transmitting, a beep will sound 10 seconds
before time-out. Another beep will sound just before the deadline; the red "TX"
indicator will disappear and transmission will cease soon thereafter. To resume trans-
mitting, you must release the PTT switch and wait for the "penalty timer" to expire
(if you press the PTT switch before this timer expires, the timer restarts, and you will
have to wait another "penalty" period)

Key Lock

In order to prevent accidental frequency change or inadvertent transmission, various
aspects of the VX-2100's keys may be locked out.
To activate the Locking feature, press and hold in the [ P1 ] key while turning the
radio on. To disable the Locking feature, repeat this power-on procedure.
