VOX (PORTABLE ONLY)
VOX is the function to start transmitting by speaking into a microphone without pressing the PTT switch.
This function can be used when a user cannot press the PTT switch, for instance, when a user is using both hands for
other tasks.
VOX can be used only when a user wears the headset and when the transceiver is operated in a Conventional Group.
If VOX Function is enabled using KPG-111D/ DN, VOX is activated when the transceiver is turned ON.
Pressing and holding the VOX key toggles VOX between activated and deactivated.
VOX can also be activated or deactivated if "VOX" is selected after entering Menu mode by pressing the Menu key. (Refer
to 3.4 Using Menu Mode on page
Note
• VOX cannot be used when the transmission is restricted, such as when the transceiver is in the Stun state.
• If the transceiver stops the VOX transmission due to the Time-out Timer, the transceiver cannot transmit until both audio input and the
PTT switch are disabled.
• A user cannot use VOX only with the transceiver itself. Although VOX is activated if the speaker microphone is connected to the
transceiver, proper operation of the function cannot be guaranteed. Normally, VOX can be used by a user wearing a headset.
