Viii.11 Tx Delay; Viii.12 Time-Out-Timer (Tot); Viii.13 Time-Out-Timer Penalty (Tx Inhibit); Viii.14 Battery Save - Midland PL-5161 Operating Instructions Manual

VIII.11
TX DELAY
The TX will remain active for approximately 180 seconds even though P-T-T button is released when using CTCSS
tones.
This eliminates squelch tail by sending CTCSS turn-off code (No Tone TX).
VIII.12
TIME-OUT-TIMER (TOT)
The purpose of the time-out-timer is to prevent any single person from using a channel for an extended period. The
time-out-time can be programmed from 10 seconds to 990 seconds by your radio Dealer. When active the TOT icon
will show in the display.
VIII.13
TIME-OUT-TIMER PENALTY (TX INHIBIT)
When TOT is applied, transmission will be inhibited after time-out-time time expires. This TX inhibit time can be
selected and programmed by your Dealer from 1 second to 100 seconds. For instance, when TOT is set to 3 minutes
and TOT penalty is set to 5 seconds, if you continuously transmit for 3 minutes, the radio will stop transmitting. A
tone will sound with each
PTT bar press until the 5-sec. TX inhibit time expires.
Press the P-T-T bar after the TX inhibit time expires to resume transmitting.
VIII.14
BATTERY SAVE
The battery save function decreases the amount of power used when a signal is not being received and no operations
are being performed (no bars are being pressed, no controls are being used, etc.)
When the channel is not busy and no operation is performed, battery save is enabled. When an operation is
performed, or
a signal is received, battery save is disabled.
VIII.15
LOW BATTERY WARNING
When the battery power goes below a pre-determined value, the LED will blink red and a tone sounds. The radio
will then allow only one more transmission. After that, the transceiver will stop transmitting. Replace or recharge
the battery pack.
VIII.16
TWO-TONE DECODE
Each channel can be programmed with two-tone decode by your radio communications Dealer. Two-tone selections
are: Individual Call, Group Call and Super Group Call.

VIII.17 VOX (VOICE OPERATED X-MIT)
