D Transmitting Notes; D Tx Code Channel Selection - Icom IC-F3162DT Instruction Manual

D Transmitting notes

• Transmit inhibit function
The transceiver has several inhibit functions which restrict
transmission under the following conditions:
- The channel is in the 'Inaudible' mode (
does not appear.)
- The channel is busy. However, depending on the pre-
programmed settings, you can transmit when a call is re-
ceived that includes an unmatching (or matching) CTCSS
(DTCS), colour code, or Individual or Talkgroup ID.
- The selected channel is a 'receive only' channel.
• Time-out timer
If continuous transmission exceeds the pre-programmed
time-out timer limit, the transmission is cut off.
• Penalty timer
After the transmission is cut off by the time-out timer, trans-
mission is further inhibited for the pre-programmed penalty
timer period.

D TX code channel selection

If the transceiver has a key assigned to TX Code CH Select,
the indication can be toggled between the operating channel
number (or name) and TX code channel number (or name).
When the TX code channel number (or name) is displayed,
" " (Audible icon)
[CH Up] or [CH Down] selects the TX code channel.

w Push [CH Up] or [CH Down] to select the desired TX code
channel.
e After selecting, push [TX Code CH Select] to set.
• Return to the stand-by mode.
r Push [Call] to transmit the selected TX code.
