Baofeng BF-5RA Operating Manual page 17

Notes:
‐ "TO" (Time Operation):
Scanning will stop when it detects an active signal. The scanning will stop on each channel or
active frequency for a predetermined time, after that time the scan will resume automatically.
‐ "CO" (Carrier Operation):
The scanning will stop and remain in the frequency or channel, until the active signal disappears.
‐ "SE"(Search Operation):
The scanning will stop and remain in the frequency or channel after it detects an active signal.
12.12.­ PTT­ID(PTT OR RELEASE PTT TO TRANSMIT THE SIGNAL CODE):
‐This feature allows you to know who call you.
‐"OFF"—Don't transmit the code while push the PTT button.
‐"BOT"‐Transmit the code while push the PTT button.(the code only could be set by PC software.)
‐"EOT"‐Transmit the code while release the PTT button.
‐"BOTH"‐Transmit the code while push or release the PTT button.
12.13.­ BCL(BUSY CHANNEL LOCKOUT):
The BCLO feature prevents the radio's transmitter from being activated if a signal strong enough to break
through the "noise" squelch is present. On a frequency where stations using different CTCSS or DCS codes
may be active, BCLO prevents you from disrupting their communications accidentally (because your radio
may be muted by its own tone decoder).
12.14.­ SFT­D(DIRECTION OF FREQUENCY SHIFT):
The "OFFSET" is the difference or offset between the reception frequency and the frequency of
transmission for access to amateur radio repeaters. Set the "OFFSET" according to
the "OFFSET" amateur radio repeater through which want to communicate.
12.15.­ OFFSET(FREQUENCY SHIFT):
When communicating via a repeater, the direction of displacement of
frequency should be timed to the displacement of the transmission frequency is
higher or lower than the receiving frequency.
example:
If we want to make a communication through amateur radio repeater whose frequency
input is 145,000 MHz and 145,600 MHz is output, we select the
"OFFSET" of the previous section in 0600 and the direction of travel "SHIFT" programmed
to [-], so the transceiver will always 145,600 MHz in frequency and when
you press [PTT] to transmit transceiver, the frequency will automatically move to
145,000 MHz
12.16.­STE (TAIL TONE ELIMATION):
This function is used to activate or deactivate the transmission end of the transceiver. this
final tone transmission only be used in communications between transceivers and not in
communications through a repeater, which must be deactivated.
