TIME-OUT TIMER (TOT)

The Time-out Timer is used to prevent you from using a channel for an extended
duration. If you continuously transmit for a preset time, the transceiver will stop
transmitting and a warning tone will sound. Release the PTT switch to stop the
tone.

AUXILIARY PORT

Press the key programmed as [AUX] to activate the auxiliary port. The auxiliary
port is used with optional boards.
"AU" appears on the display for 1 second.

DISPLAY BRIGHTNESS

You can cycle the display brightness between high, low, and off by pressing the
key programmed as [LED Brightness].

BUSY CHANNEL LOCKOUT (BCL)

When activated, BCL prevents you from interfering on a channel that is already
in use. Pressing the PTT switch will cause a warning tone to sound and the
transceiver will not transmit. Release the PTT switch to stop the tone.
Note:
◆ Ask your dealer for an explanation on how BCL functions when using QT, DQT, or
Optional signaling.
If BCL Override has been programmed, you can transmit over the current signal:
1 Press and hold the PTT switch.
If the channel is already in use, a warning tone will sound.
2 Quickly release and then press the PTT switch again.
3 Speak into the transceiver as you would during a normal call.
