VOICE ACTIVATED CONTROL (VOX)
Vox operation allows hands-free transmission when using a headset. This mode allows
the user to initiate transmissions with the energy in their voice instead of pressing a push
to talk button.
1. To Begin VOX
Press and hold CALL & PTT keys while turning power on. A double beep will sound
indicating that VOX mode is active. Release keys.
2. Set Microphone Sensitivity
Adjust desired VOX sensitivity by turning channel selector (1-16) while listening to
beeps.
The lower the number the less sensitive the microphone.
The higher the number the more sensitive the microphone.
For example:
1=Low sensitivity, 8=Mid sensitivity, 16=High sensitivity
Press PTT key again, and microphone sensitivity number will be announced and locked
in.
3. Select Channel / Frequency
Channel Selector can now be used for Channel/Frequency Selection.
4. Attach Headset
Plug in an optional headset into audio jacks, and begin speaking in VOX.
Important: Place microphone 1/4" directly in front of mouth. Speak DIRECTLY into
microphone.
5. To End VOX
Press PTT key to Cancel VOX transmission.
Note: If the VOX Gain levels are set to a higher sensitivity, lower ambient noise may
accidentally activate the microphone.
